quite a bit in tone. In GameSpot's 9/10 <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/what-remains-of-edith-finch-review/1900-6416666/">What Remains of Edith Finch review</a>, Justin Clark wrote, "It's not often that a game's plot slips past the bitterness of grief to finally get to the acceptance, but that's the triumph in What Remains of Edith Finch. Ultimately, if the game has any resemblance of a moral, it's that the bravest, most beautiful thing every one of us does is choose to keep going, despite knowing what's coming."</p><p>The previous free titles from the Epic Games Store were <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/subnautica/">Subnautica</a> and <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/super-meat-boy/">Super Meat Boy</a>.
