Random things I noticed while playing What Remains Of Edith Finch

There was a poster of the cannery that Lewis worked at on the boat.

2. Edith Jr wears what appears to be an engagement on a necklace. Whether this is her ring or her mothers is not mentioned.

3. At the start of the game, Milton's missing posters are EVERYWHERE. There is even a giant pile of them in a nearby lake.

4. The dragon slide that crushed and killed Sven is still outside.

5. As you walk toward the house, the music gets louder.

6. The swing that Calvin flew off decades ago is still looped around the branch.

7. There was a spare peep hole in the garage that didn't have any names or dates on it.

8. At multiple points throughout the game you can hear a train in the background, despite the fact that the train tracks are clearly destroyed.

9. There are multiple pots throughout the Finch house that looks like they have eyes.

10. One of the books the Finches possessed was 'King in Yellow', a book known for making anyone who read it insane.

11. The house sounds alive, or like there are people constantly moving around it.

12. Walters bedroom is painted with both ocean and train designs. One of the paintings is the old house that Odin tried to bring to America.

13. There are drag marks on the ground of Walters bedroom (most likely made when his drawers were taken out of his room.)

14. The entrance to the tunnels is hidden by a book called 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, a classic sci-fi story about a sea monster.

15. Molly's room is filled entirely with animal books.

16. There is a jelly fish on Molly's bed (possible connection to the monster??).

17. Molly has a chalkboard in her bedroom where she is a princess in an underwater castle and Sven is about to get attacked by a sea monster (slightly resembling the dragon slide).

18. As shark!Molly starts falling down the cliff, she passes a road where headlights are briefly scene.

19. When the monster gets back to Molly's room, the window that cat!Molly jumped through is still open.

20. There are still Christmas decorations in Molly's room.

21. The curse is 500 years old. That is a lot of dead people.

22. In Odin's viewfinder, it states "His [Odin's] daughter, Edie, is already dreaming of new Finch house" showing that even though her own father died not even a week ago, Edie has already moved on.

23. The house is filled head to toe with books about death, including two that Odin wrote.

24. Sven's shrine does not have a log painting like the rest of the family. His portrait is painted on a simple canvas.

25. Edie has a number of strange tapes in her room including one titled "conspiracy now".

26. The toys from Gregory's final bath are still in the bathroom.

27. There is an old bottle of alcohol in the bathroom bin.

28. A lot of Sam's photos are based on Calvin (a swing, astronauts).

29. All of Milton's drawings are based on the death. (Molly = cat, Barbara = pumpkin)

30. There are cigarettes and gin on Sam's side of the room he shared with Calvin.

31. Calvin already had bruises, Band-Aids and a cast on his leg when he died.

32. Sam blames himself for challenging Calvin.

33. In the story, Calvin doesn't fall. He keeps flying.

34. Barbara's birthday cake is still in her room.

35. Barbara is holding crutches in her portrait.

36. There are totem-esc styles statues of both Calvin and Molly

37. Barbara's outfit is over the railing.

This is the same way the Hook-Man falls

38. "Performance of her life" can also mean that it is the performance she is known for.

39. There are spare portrait logs in the basement.

40. There is a fake window in the basement.

41. Edie's grave is finished despite her dying and then nobody else going to the house.

42. There is no grave for Milton.

43. Lewis' grave has a crown on it.

44. There are times wear it seems like you can hear sobbing (this one may just be me).

45. There is a box of Kay's old stuff in Sam's bedroom.

46. Odin has a park named after him.

47. This isn't a fact but I think this may be one of the funniest photos of the game (LIKE SIR? YOUR DAUGHTER IS SOBBING!).

48. Both Calvin and Dawn are on Sam's shrine.

49. Gus has a skateboard over his name.

50. Gregory has the soap bottle from his final bath in his shrine.

51. The music cuts out when Gregory isn't moving.

52. Same also blames himself for Gregory.

53. Gus never met his step mother.

54. Gus was crushed by the (totem) statues of his deceased relatives.

55. Dawn's light switch is the only one on

56. Most of the rules are about past deaths. (No playing outside without permission : Calvin, No answering door for strangers : Barbara, No messes after dark : Molly (???)).

Yeeep I posted it

Lewissss pookie

You can see a difference in my drawing style in the two pictures

sorry for not posting earlier 🧚🏻‍♀️

This might sound silly but I like to think Milton ran away, imagine growing up in a household where tragedy struck so often it was normal. Imagine growing with the fear that you could die any moment and your family probably wouldn’t care. It’s very suffocating so instead of staying he left, he probably didn’t want his family looking for him so he left no note. Just a drawing showing where his mind was while leaving and started his life from there. I mean the wiki acknowledges Monroe as Christoper’s “real life” family and the creators did say the Unfinished Swan was Milton’s story so it’s a good theory in my opinion.

when i tell you my fingers WORKED.

happy birthday milton 🎉 i had no idea it was your birthday🫶🏽

[sunsetthedragon]

I love the idea of Christopher and Monroe meeting later in life. Like a chance meeting where they happen to cross paths. I feel like it would go something like this:

Monroe: Wait, you’re not supposed to exist!

Christopher: Excuse me, your dad died when he was 11!

Monroe: That was just a misunderstanding.

Christopher: A MISUNDERSTANDING!!!!!

Happy Birthday Milton Finch!! 🥳

19/05/1992

Today you would have been 32 years old, which honestly, isn’t that old,,,, still, have a nice day :))

[wroef]

i wonder why they made milton and lewis’ stories so similar. I get they are brothers but it is assumed both of them left they’re realities to become kings in their imagination, either though disappearing or actually killing themself. I wonder if the whole king aspect is much more important than we let on. there has to be a connection between the two that i am missing. Sam and Calvin also had similar deaths so maybe it’s a brothers thing?

I think it could definitely be a brothers thing, yeah! I love parallels and foils so don't think this has escaped my notice! There are some problems that arise though, like how do Gus, Gregory, and Walter fit into the equation? Gus and Gregory had very different deaths, and Walter's death was different from his brothers' as well. Unless you assume he was like,, launched in the air by the train. But that's kind of comically unserious. I think even Edie would think that's a bit much.

What do you guys think? I'm curious.

Questions I have surrounding Milton Finch

(if anyone has answers please feel free to share)

1: How did the door only work for him?? We see the aforementioned painted door in his room, but the design is different and worn down. Is it even the same door? Idk

2: Monroe's mother: How did Milton meet her? If he had the ability to return to the real world and sire a child, why didn't he ever use that world-hopping ability to look for his family? Did he just assumed they all would have died? This is the biggest question for me; like how he came back, for what reason, and then why he abandoned both her and his son. How old was he even?

3: How could Monroe's mother have a magic paintbrush that she left to her son if Milton already had it in his kingdom? Were there two? Did he make her one of her own to make up for being an absent father?

4: Hell, he knew about his son, right? He seemed to know who he was. Why didn't you want to be in your child's life?? You gave him another paintbrush, more questions, and a half-hearted admittance to being a crap dad, then told him to leave where he'll never see him again.

5: (Throwaway Question) Would Dawn (before her death) or Edith ever find out about Monroe? Assuming theres DNA in this world, who's to say they couldn't trace the Finch relatives and reunite them. They could even have took Monroe in after his mom's death. Plus it would have been both curious, (now they know Milton didn't die) and therapeutic (having at least a piece of Milton back)

Its just plaguing my mind, I'm deeply obsessed with these games now unfortunately

Queenie and Milton Finch Edit;

(Reason: Seems fitting).

[darkcostco]

[mrsllyziy]

Lewis 😭 just 😭 wanted 😭 his 😭 little 😭 brother back 😭 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[puzzled-pegasus]

the royal family

If Lewis is the king, does that make Edith the princess?

or should Edith be queen of her own kingdom since both her brothers get their own...
