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?

A great little Obra-Dinn-a-like.
a solid effort with a great premise.
Really liked playing through this game. The more you find out the more you question. I will say I think I liked the Roottrees more but this was still really good!

舍一人而救千万人,可乎。看完结局动画,只觉得死去的人和生还的人都应该有普通而安宁的人生,无法衡量孰轻孰重,唯有为作出的选择负责而已。
有反转欸,我喜欢这种
断断续续的打完了 居然是个变格本…但是还是很有意思的 特别是最后那几段…还是让人有些惊讶的 做了超多笔记 感觉酣畅淋漓啊~
This game is very well made: Intricate characters, good voice acting, beautiful art style, good leading on the storyline. However, I did not feel like I was solving anything nor making any decisions in the game. I was mentally piecing it out, but I didn't have to prove I knew anything at all to the game itself. I feel I could have finished it if I was completely clueless to what was happening and who was who. Its just deducing what number walked into which room when, over and over and over again based off of what people say they're going to do, so you can watch the story play out. I absolutely loved playing this studio's first game, "The Roottrees are Dead", but somehow I didn't feel involved or accomplished in "The Incident at Galley House" in the same manner. All that and I'll still say that this is still a way better experience than other games in this genre I come across. I do hope Evil Trout Inc keeps it up!
Great remake of type help and voice acting is phenomenal. My only gripe is figuring out the last person who dies in the original story as the empty slots suggests more numbers.
If u like the Roottrees u will love this Didnt know the original - didnt matter... i got hooked and played this thru in two sittings - its around 8,5h of Gameplay. U wont regret it - trust me :)
Genial, mehr sag ich nicht wegen Spoiler :D
