    This game gives me a sense of feeling that it no longer can be call a game, it's a art!

    Esse é definitivamente uma experiência que você tem que sentir, e não tentar entender!
    É como um filme do Cristopher Nolan, que deixa pontas soltas, propositalmente. Isso faz com que você reflita sobre o que está consumindo, e abra sua perspectiva e criatividade.

    A perfect and creative indie game. You have to interpret a lot yourself to understand the story. But that's what makes it so special

    This is such a beautiful game, if anything I’ve played should be considered a pice of art then this is it. Edith Finch is essential an exploration game with a deep and moving story about a family’s tragic history which is told though interesting little gameplay segments, each one different to the last. It’s only a few hours long and definitely worth getting if you haven’t played it.

    If you're into that type of games you will probably give it a 9 or a 10, but honestly I don't play this type of games a lot but even tho, I give it an 8. the gameplay is simple you will use joysticks and another button only.

    This could possibly be the best indie game ever made. (Either this or Journey.) This game is deep, impactful, emotional, introspective, nuanced, atmospheric, beautiful, haunting, incredibly well written, has stellar voice acting and an incredible artistic direction. Definitely a game more mature people will like.

    Um jogo de walking simulator em primeira pessoa com foco na narrativa e alguns puzzle durante a jornada.
    Você joga na pele de Edith uma jovem adulta que retorna a majestosa casa de sua familia Finch, de origem norueguesa, em busca de respostas sobre a vida de seus antepassados.

    Explorando a casa e adentrando os comodos, que são elaborados labirintos criados por seus avô, você vai aos poucos conhecendo pouco a pouco sobre as historias e o fim que cada familiar teve em sua vida.
    Apesar de tratar de assuntos morbidos como mortes muitas vezes trágicas, o jogo trata isso através de minigames de uma maneira ludica, intuitiva, bela e quase infantil transformando a mecanica simples do jogo em uma forma unica de contar a história.
    O que torna um assunto pesado sendo contado de fundo uma forma gostosa de ser experienciado.
    Esse é mais um daqueles jogos que conta uma boa história inserindo o jogador dentro dela através da interatividade.
    Algo que só games podem fazer. Ele entra em mais um daqueles games como Gris, Undertale, Nier, Hellblade, The Witness, The Talos Principle e o que joguei recentemente Outer Wilds.
    Jogos que te colocam não como um player mas como alguem que está inserido na historia. Que ta fazem sentir e se emocionar.
    É até injusto chama-lo de um jogo, seria muito mais parecido com um livro interativo daqueles da decada de 90 (inclusive referenciado dentro do game).
    Uma bela história contada em apenas 2 horinhas de gameplay!    … Expand

    It is one of those games that Sony gave for free with the PlayStation Plus subscription and that I didn’t care to play until I had nothing else on my plate, and to my surprise it is an excellent game. You can finish it in 3 hours, give or take, but it is worth any penny you pay for it (should you had paid for it).

    Quick background on me the reviewer, I tend to like single player games that is heavy on narrative the most. I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now it’s rare for me to get into a multiplayer game.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of coursed influenced by my personal opinions.

    (10) Outstanding. A truly elite title that is nearly perfect in every way. This score is given out rarely and indicates a game that cannot be missed.

    This game revolves you digging into a family’s past, filled with death. Each story of a family member is unique, moving and immersive. I’ve replayed this game quite a few times throughout the years since its release. There is very little gameplay so if you just want to watch it instead, go right ahead. Just don’t pass up on the story and please support the game by still buying it.    … Expand

    WROEF is a masterpiece in its own kind, just sad that it's too short.

    It might be the most creative piece of nostalgia that I ever experienced.

    The plot tells us about a pregnant woman Edith Finch whose goal is to create a diary for her child about her siblings and parents, and every time before you interact with the memory to write to your diary you see a unique story of every family member and what happened to them ( what killed or caused death ), and I’ve gotta admit that every story of her relatives is very interesting and visually done at great level.But from every story my favorite is Lewises story, that shows his mental issues and it has the best direction and visual design amongst all the stories.
    Soundtrack is good but I’ve only remembered main theme of the game, but still soundtrack completes atmosphere of locations and sometimes it can be really dramatic, and just hide the fright of situation ( like in Gregoris story ).

    8分，流程太短了，虽然是独立游戏但是也过于太短，还没有很多手游流程长，2小时就可以结束整个故事。如果每个故事都可以像Molly和Babara的故事那样丰富饱满就好了。
    游戏感觉更像一本家族史名著的极简版，每个章节介绍家里的一个人。
    喜欢游戏里的字幕，有一定的引导性，如果中文字体再特别一点就更好了。互动效果挺好的，会有真的在翻书开门的感觉，如果有更多物品可以互动就好了。 总体感觉这个游戏更像一个半成品，除了部分故事比较饱满，很多部分都点到为止。    8分，流程太短了，虽然是独立游戏但是也过于太短，还没有很多手游流程长，2小时就可以结束整个故事。如果每个故事都可以像Molly和Babara的故事那样丰富饱满就好了。

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O melhor jogo desse gênero de exploração e mistério, possui uma variedade de cenários, cenas e jogabilidades únicas para cada ocasião onde nos mostra a história dos personagens da casa. O que mais me chocou foi a do menino que queria virar astronauta, onde ele se balança num balanço a ponto de ser lançado para o mar e morrer, onde nós na jogatina, estamos na visão em primeira pessoa do menino, para dar uma imersão e sentir o que ele sentiu antes de morrer. O maior e único defeito desse jogo, é o tempo, parece que passa muito rápido, poderiam ter aumentado o tamanho do jogo, dando mais espaço para personagens que foram apresentados na história, mas não tiveram seu "tempo de tela"!… Expand
