and sure enough, the curse struck him down the moment he set foot outdoors. Then he decided that that was no way to live and that he was willing to die if it meant going outside again. Walter managed to survive for thirty years by making sure to want nothing at all.Barbara wanted to recapture her famous scream, so the curse provided her with.Calvin wanted to feel like he was flying, so the curse made the wind pick him up and throw him over a cliff.Molly was ravenously hungry, so the curse served her up a savage feast.Odin wanted to bring his family to America in an effort to escape the family curse, so his family did indeed make it to America, but he drowned before setting foot on land again.
For some, the connection is less obvious than others, but it still holds through in many cases: Be Careful What You Wish For: One interpretation of the curse, assuming it's real, is that it kills members of the Finch family by giving them what they want in one twisted way or another.Edith's foreboding narration upon reaching the house, the topic of a family death curse, the darkened foyer and mysteriously ruined kitchen, and the ominous locked basement can give the impression of a horror game it's actually an Environmental Narrative Game with a heavy focus on emotional storytelling. Bait-and-Switch: Similar to Gone Home.Even in the fantasy, the crowning has a horrifying undercurrent: the "altar" at which King Lewis is crowned resembles a guillotine. In reality, he's being Driven to Suicide and decapitating himself with the fish chopper. Awesome Moment of Crowning: The culmination of Lewis's fantasy quest sees him become supreme king of his world in an epic celebration, kneeling to be crowned by his love interest.It is also incredibly dangerous, and it is astounding that only one Finch fell to their death from its various unguarded ledges. Awesome, but Impractical: The house looks like something Willy Wonka would have built for Tom Sawyer it is loaded with rickety walkways, rope ladders, tree houses and secret passageways.Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Milton may have done this, or he may have just run away from home.There have never been any trains or rail lines on Orcas Island. Walter is struck and killed by a train after emerging from under the house.Law enforcement on Orcas Island is provided by the San Juan County Sheriff's dept, who wear khaki uniforms. Barbara's disappearance is investigated by the non-existent Orcas Island Police Dept, wearing blue uniforms. The game takes place on Orcas Island, part of the San Juans in Washington State.As the story progresses, it gets more and more realistic, switching from a top-down view to isometric, then full 3D by the end, but still keeping its simplified look. Lewis' fantasy world looks like an old-style fantasy video game.
His self-portrait in particular resembles a younger version of the King from The Unfinished Swan. As such, it's more cartoony looking compared to the realistic drawings for the rest of the Finches. Edith's portrait for Milton is based on his self-portrait from his flipbook.
Justified, as Edith is reading a comic based on her death.
