About the game

A game in which Edith returns to her old family home and learns the stories of the Finch family members one by one. Each family member's story unfolds with different controls and presentation. You look around every corner of the house to find hidden rooms and records. It's short enough to enjoy all the way through in a brief time.

Why we recommend it

Its presentation, showing one family's story in a completely different way in each short episode, is striking. It's over in a few hours, but it stays with you for a long time.

Good for — Great for: anyone who wants to play a short, powerful story game through in one sitting
