003 - What Remains Of Edith Finch

Welcome to Geekscape’s newest gaming podcast, Xbox Game Passengers. Every other Wednesday, host Derek and a guest will dissect and discuss just one game available on Microsoft’s Game Pass service, which was chosen for them completely at random. Whether it’s a magical or a horrible experience, they’ll force themselves through it, share their thoughts, and let you know whether or not the game is worth your time! At the end of each episode, they’ll also randomly select the game for the following show. This episode, Horror Movie Night and Playing With Squirrels podcast host (plus producer of the phenomenal DisNeato podcast) and certified non-gamer Matt Kelly joins Derek to chat about Matt’s first gaming experience in years, What Remains of Edith Finch, and also to ask the question: what makes a game a game? “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.” We’ve had a blast making Xbox Game Passengers so far, and we really hope that you’re enjoying it too!
