What Remains Of Edith Finch is a very upsetting collection of interactive short stories about the brief, tragic lives of a cursed family who live in a monstrous treehouse. It’s also a wonderful show of experimentation, switching genres from story to story – one minute you’re a playable bestiary on shuffle, the next you’re beheading fish in a cannery as the worktable disappears beneath your scrolling daydreams. The developer’s next project seems to be pursuing a similar balance of whimsy and darkness. It’s another anthology experience, which casts you as a field biologist studying “the strangeness of organic life”. Also, chicken-legged houses.
