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.

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.

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 (???)).

64. Lewis' dream Palace is decorated with fish.
65. The gnomes scattered around the house are outside the original house in Edie's story.

★. ―
It was early evening. The chorus of croaking frogs and buzzing insects in the background was accompanied by the occasional swell of loud music. Out in the woods, they celebrated — with fire pits carefully dug out and surrounded by rocks to protect the old trees ; paths cleared of leaves and covered in a layer of dark dirt ; and lanterns hung from the tangled branches overhead. The village couldn't have asked for better weather. There was just enough of a breeze to take the edge off of the summer heat.
Daigo walked with his arm around his wife's waist, thumb stroking her dress. Their first child slept peacefully in her arms despite the noise of the festival coming to life in the woods. Kazuya, he was called. He had been in this world less than half of a year, but his parents could not imagine life without him. As many in their village had said, their son suited them.
Quietly the former hunter leaned in absently to kiss the side of Melissa's hair, mindful of his empty socket. After wearing the patch over his missing eye all day, he had decided to go without it. His scarred face seemed to blur in the creeping dark.
A few of the children in the village were responsible for the crown of wild roses and berries atop both Daigo and Melissa's heads. For the saviors, they said, as they had since the imposing stranger slayed their beast. The retired hunter always accepted their praise with a thin smile, afraid that any rejection of it would lead them to suspect that he never killed their infamous monster. Rather, the terrible thing walked at his side slowly — with the most beautiful eyes and the softest smile that Daigo had ever seen.
"They are setting up early this year," he remarked. "I wonder if the little ones will enlist your help catching fireflies again for their jars. You do have a knack for seeing them even when they aren't shining."
Daigo chuckled breathily. His footsteps stalled, and he steered her into him more firmly for a moment. There was a tenderness in that black eye that was impossible to put into words. Daigo raised his free hand and laid it on Kazuya's head gently.
