The Saddest Horror Game (That Isn't a Horror Game) — What Remains of Edith Finch

I just played What Remains of Edith Finch for the first time, and it’s the best horror game that isn’t a horror game.

What starts as a quiet, unsettling walk through a strange old house turns into a series of surreal, haunting, and deeply personal stories. Each one is tragic, strange, and unforgettable. This video is part review, part retrospective, part overthinking, and all of it is from the perspective of someone coming to Edith Finch completely blind.

00:20 – Arrival
02:06 – Exploring the Finch House
02:52 – Molly

Lol jk, since a part of the soundtrack that's IN THE GAME got my entire video blocked and taken down. How cool is that?

I stream short games every Monday and drop videos like this on Fridays.
