About
On Sunday the 7th of March, 1936, a group of locals made their way up the long, muddy track to Galley House. As far as any of them knew, the house had stood empty for decades.
Inside, they discovered the bloody aftermath of something horrific.
The authorities were summoned, and the crime scene was eventually cleared away. But nobody ever figured out what happened that dreadful night. It seemed likely that no one ever would.
Now, many years later, you have access to a peculiar machine — one that lets you listen in on echoes of the past. Can you piece together the events behind The Incident at Galley House?

Amazing mystery game, fully recommend purchasing
好玩!个人觉得比鲁特里简单。
過去発生した事件のシーンを再生して謎に迫っていくゲーム。 進めていくうちに先のシーンが気になってしょうがなくなり一気にクリアしてしまった。 ネタバレはできないが、途中から緊張感が一気に上がりゲームに引き込まれた。もうクリアまでしないと寝れないレベルで。 他の方にもおすすめします。

Played through this when it was TYPE:HELP on itch.io, so I was sceptical that they'd manage to make enough improvements to justify the format change. But you know what? They managed it. New ending works well, and does some fun things with the 3d environment that mostly comes together in retrospect, fittingly. Only one change that I noticed to the main storyline, and it was a bit of a coward's edit, but I can see why they did it. Easy recommend, especially if you didn't see the original.
Great experience full of mystery and intrigue. Play this if you like puzzle games like Case/Rise of the Golden Idol, Return of the Obra Dinn and similar mystery games.
This is truly an amazing game! I love all the game play experience and puzzle setup, everything is well connected and the flows smoothly. [spoiler] I got a little bit confused at the ending and was hoping there will come more background story [/spoiler], but overall I love it!
実績もすべて解除しましたが、とても面白いゲームです。 例えるなら、Return of the Obra Dinnとアガサクリスティの「そして誰もいなくなった」を掛け合わせてさらに面白くした感じです。 進めるにつれてなぜ死んだのか、なぜこのような言動をしていたのかがどんどん解明されます。映画やミステリー小説を楽しんでいるかのように没頭してプレイしていました。 値段以上に楽しませていただいた気分です。日本語訳もとても自然です。新作が出たらまた購入したいです。
능지 이슈로 두통을 유발하지만 정말 재밌는 게임이에요! 돈 많은 재벌이 개발사 인원들을 납치해서 게임만 만들게 했으면 해요!
Another banger Obra Dinn-Like from the same people of The Roottrees are Dead. In a way both reminded me a lot of Her Story. Roottrees for that search engine system, and this one for having me assembling pieces of a timeline of events. And of course amazing twists. I don't remember feeling so gaslighted by a game before.
This is a deductive game for grown-ups. There is very little hand-holding, and you are regularly expected to realise when it has become possible to brute-force an answer, or to intuit what certain characters might be up to. Or, I'm very stupid and missing the clues that make it easy. Either way, I'm having a great time and would very much recommend it to fans of (say) Obrah Dinn, Roottrees, Golden Idol etc.
