As Edith, you will explore the vast Finch house, searching for stories as you explore her family history and try to figure out why she is the only one in the family still alive. Each story you find allows you to experience the life of a new relative on the day of their death, with stories ranging from the distant past to the present. The gameplay and tone of the stories vary, as does the Finch family itself. The only constant is that they are all played from a first-person perspective, and each story ends with that relative's death.
