What Remains of Edith Finch is hands down one of the best games of 2017. The story is told as a series of vignettes set in a mysterious, secret-passage filled mansion on Orcas Island in northwestern Washington, exploring the mysterious and ironic misfortunes of the Finch family. Each story plays with the game's structure in fun and interesting ways you have to play to see- and one story in particular brought me to tears. It also avoids the pitfalls of many similar walk-around-and-look-at-stuff games in that you're an active participant in the game and its story instead of just wandering around having a story told to you.

All in all, a fantastic game. Buy it!
