2018 has been a remarkable year for the gaming industry that flourished by leaps and bounds. Several games surfaced in 2018 that rocked the arena and drew the public’s attention. Here is a review of a few apex games of 2018 that remained top-of-the-list throughout the year.

Best PC Games Of 2018

What Remains Of Edith Finch

What Remains of Edith Finch is a story-driven game that was developed by Giant Sparrow in 2017. At present, the game is available for Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One users.

The game features a character, Edith Finch, the only survivor of the Finch family. Her tribe was alleged to be cursed, and all members of the Finch family died in unusual and mysterious ways, leaving only one member behind to carry on the bloodline. As you advance in this two-hour game, Edith Finch tells you about her childhood, and you have to explore her native home where she has returned to investigate the death cause of her relatives by visiting their homes and bedrooms. Ultimately, she discovers the cause of her family’s demise. The game portrays overwhelming scenes, and the story keeps you too involved―not letting you take your hands off your keyboard before you end.

What Remains of Edith Finch was awarded British Academy Games Award for the Best Game 2017. The game also won Best Narrative category award at The Game Awards 2017 and the 2018 Game Developers Choice Awards. This game is available for 8.19 USD, and you can download it from HERE.
