## What is What Remains of Edith Finch?

*ATTENTION* Works with compatible Apple devices below.

What Remains of Edith Finch is a collection of strange tales about a family in Washington state. 

As Edith, you’ll explore the colossal Finch house, searching for stories as she explores her family history and tries to figure out why she's the last one in her family left alive. Each story you find lets you experience the life of a new family member on the day of their death, with stories ranging from the distant past to the present day. 

The gameplay and tone of the stories are as varied as the Finches themselves. The only constants are that each is played from a first-person perspective and that each story ends with that family member's death. 

Ultimately, it's a game about what it feels like to be humbled and astonished by the vast and unknowable world around us. 

Created by Giant Sparrow, the team behind the first-person painting game The Unfinished Swan.

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2026-08-22, version 1.0.2*

I really like the game. It’s really good story based and stuff adventure but the only problem was when I needed a little bit more storage. I offloaded it and like when I re-downloaded it for some reason, it would kick me out like four times until it would start again. And I did that for a couple of days or when I re-download it if I delete it, it does that and I really don’t like it. and I think it only works on iPhone for me. I have the iPhone 16 Pro.

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2026-07-28, version 1.0.2*

This game is very addicting and fun. This is my favorite game and I will be playing it again it is very interesting. I hope everyone else loves as much as I did this game is amazing

### 5/5 — Great story

*2026-07-16, version 1.0.2*

loved this game. not sure why it’s got such a low rating

### 5/5 — This game will forever be my favorite.

*2026-07-10, version 1.0.2*

From the very first moment it’ll have you hooked, I’ve played it several times and genuinely always cry. The detail and depth to which the story is told is so amazing. I definitely recommend this game to anyone and everyone, especially those who love detail and mystery, the death of Calvin will always be my favorite, though it’s quite short I feel it shows alot more than a kid on a swing. This games shows a bit of inside on mental health and I feel the curse they talk about is mainly about mental illness. This game opens your eyes to a lot more than their family tree, it makes you think about yours, about what generational curses have been passed down to you, what habits and behaviors will you pass down to them, it definitely tugs on your heart if you’ve had a traumatic childhood, or are living in one now. I love this game, and would love a follow up story or sequence to tell about Edith’s son. 

To the developers, thank you for sharing this game with the world, it’s done more than you know.❤️

### 5/5 — 굿

*2026-07-04*

중학교때 플스로 하다가 성인이 된 지금 생각나서 다시 하게 되었다.
어렸을 때는 잘 이해가 안갔는데 지금 해보니까 비극적이고 안타까운 감정이 든다. 재미있음!!

### 4/5 — Loved it !

*2026-06-12, version 1.0.2*

The subject matter is sad so be forewarned, but the gameplay is amazing and so are the graphics! I’m giving it 4 stars because it was wonky trying to find the next item to progress with..

### 5/5 — There’s a lot I want to say…

*2026-06-05, version 1.0.2*

I bought this game a week ago and GOOD GRACIOUS it was a great experience. Not the story part. What I mean is the storyline switches so perfectly and the plot of the game is both imaginative and realistic. It showed so many realities that were and are happening in this day’s society, specially towards family. The concept and design is beyond my expectation. I tried the game because I was intrigued by a lot of recommendations of how good is the story. It woah I definitely love it! It made me agree in many things and made me question a lot of things. I was trucked with endless queries which possibilities directly interlocked the family altogether. For a game this rapidly continues, it was both slow and fast. The timing is very consistent. I GOT SAD SO MUCH ARGHHH! Thank you for this!

### 5/5 — So good

*2026-05-19, version 1.0.2*

I came onto the game thinking that it wasn’t gonna be the same as the computer game I watched from special Edd but it was the same ! It was like a fever dream like a game only you could think of playing not it actually being a thing !!! I loved it it was so good so if you love books or video games or anything else because even Richard Ayoade could play this !!!!!! Love and obsessed buy it I promise you won’t regret it !😝🤭😄😉

### 5/5 — Easy gameplay, but excellent story

*2026-05-02, version 1.0.2*

Just finished, I know it’s almost 10 years old at this point, but just great story telling that really sucks you in and keeps you there for a few hours!

### 5/5 — This Game…

*2026-04-24, version 1.0.2*

This is one of the best $5 dollar purchases I have ever made. 
The story is breathtakingly immersive, and I felt like I was there the entire time. The diversity of the stories was also incredible and very fun and amazing. I loved the soundtrack. 
Also, the mobile controls didn’t seem to affect the gameplay at all negatively. This game really benefits from its port.
