What Remains of Edith Finch & Back to the Dawn: Double feature!

We're trying something new this month: a double feature! This month's top-voted games tied, and since they're both relatively short, we decided to try them both! What Remains of Edith Finch is ~3 hours, and Back to the Dawn is ~20 hours. So feel free to play just one or both games, and we'll discuss them both at the next meetup.

What Remains of Edith Finch is a collection of strange tales about a family in Washington state. As Edith, you’ll explore the colossal Finch house, searching for stories as she explores her family history and tries to figure out why she's the last one in her family left alive.

Back to the Dawn is a story-rich RPG set in a high-security prison ruled by factions and buried secrets. Investigate two conspiracies from the inside, gather evidence, and outsmart a system designed to silence you. Make friends (or foes) with fellow inmates and with their help, break out of prison.

What Remains of Edith Finch is available for Windows, iOS, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Back to the Dawn is available for Windows and Xbox.

Play through as much of the games as you like and we will discuss them on September 7th. If you don't finish the games, don't worry; you can attend no matter how much you played. (But be prepared for spoilers!)

We'll be meeting at Hapa's Brewing Company in San Jose, either inside or on the south patio. See this map for parking and building entrances.
