Thank you for playing What Remains of Edith Finch!
This version includes key performance improvements and bug fixes.
I understand optimization issues and the artistic choice to prioritize a cinematic aesthetic, but in the age of iPad Pro M2, I’m pretty sure you could at least offer the option to push 60 frames. I was expecting the same experience as on PC and i was slightly disappointed in the first 3 seconds of starting the game when it chugged 30. I’m sure —to most people— this is not a huge detraction, but I haven’t played a game at 30 frames for years. I have become accustomed to something a bit smoother; It is more important to me than resolution or fancy effects. That said, I like the controller support and visuals which are, honestly, almost on par with pc. Also, unlike many high fidelity AAA ports, it seems rather stable. kudos.
I use an ipad and i discovered this game and wanted to play, i saw the reviews saying it crashes right after unlocking the book 'there's a secret in this bathroom' i unfortunately ignored these reviews and went ahead and downloaded anyway. Low and behold, it crashes right after the book. I was awful confused because my ipad is the 9th generation and it should function but it didn't. Thankfully my sister has recently gotten a new phone so i got her old phone and connected my apple ID to the phone and was able to download the game for free and my game had saved on my sisters old phone. I was able to continue the game with no interruptions and was overall a great game but i recommend to not download on an ipad, it's almost guaranteed to crash right after the pink bathroom no matter what generation of ipad you have.
TW: several deaths - if deaths are a hard topic for you, I don’t recommend this Side note: kind of spoilers but no major giveaways of the actual plot What remains of Edith Finch is an incredible game with a heart wrenching, bittersweet story line that I completely enjoyed playing. The graphics are pretty and overall nice to look at. There are some small bugs that I feel aren’t acceptable for a 5 dollar game but it was still interesting. A major issue was the fact the game kept crashing when I reached specific areas. (I’m using an IPad which is relatively new) For example, it kept crashing when I finished Molly’s story which was bothersome. I deleted the game and reinstalled it a few times and managed to reach Calvin’s bit. I finished swinging and the game crashed repeatedly. I’ve tried everything from restarting to deleting the game but nothing worked. I haven’t been able to complete it. Please fix this!! I really want to finish the game :c TL;DR: great game but it crashes often.
The game is engrossing but the control system to move around in the game is abysmal. You press and then move your finger to indicate direction to move. Sadly this has two HUGE problems. First, your finger is over the top of the item you are trying to move towards, which is clunky, and second (the killer) many times you cannot move AT ALL until the view lines up just right. Want to walk down a road? Nope, you can’t do that until you fiddle around till the view of the road is just right before you can move .. with no indication if you have found the right view or not. This is so bad it basically ruins the game. Very sad.
I had no issues with game play, some things are challenging but it was great! I wish it had been longer and I wish every story app was this interactive. I don’t recommend for young ages but as an adult I enjoyed it. I just couldn’t break away. If you have a day to yourself and just want to relax at home, it’s finishable. Oh and when you get to the treehouse just approach the ladder and climb it. There’s no clue there.
This is such a fun game! I love it. But it crashes every time I get to the pink bathroom. ☹️it’s so annoying. Please fix it. ☺️ I wanna play threw the rest of the game. It keeps crashing…and it says it works on this iPad…but it keeps going out of the game. Can you please fix it? 😁 Edit: can you please fix it where it works on an ipad 9th generation? Please? ☺️ it keeps crashing when I finish the Calvin level. 🙁
Wow. I very rarely leave reviews, but I just finished watching the credits and had to come share my thoughts. This story is so diverse in its elements, beautiful, poignant. I took several screenshots just because the scenery was so breathtaking. If you like story-driven games, especially those that deal with the concepts of life, death and the love you find in between (basically, if you liked Spiritfarer), give this one a try.
Wow. I just finished this game, and I’m breathless. Unbelievable graphics, a heartrending story… an unforgettable and immersive experience. I did have some trouble with the controls, which felt a little wonky and unintuitive at times, but this is a minor quibble when the whole experience was so amazing. These people really know how to tell a story. Thanks for finally bringing this to iOS— I’ve been wanting to play it for years.
