The Incident at Galley House

I received a press copy of the game for free, but I massively enjoyed my experience and recommend this game if you enjoy deduction/mystery games! These are really my version of a cozy game - I love getting completely absorbed into these stories and working to organize notes and understand each aspect of the story to sift through important details. I didn't play the original Type Help, but from what I understand reading through comments, the story has been essentially unchanged. I enjoyed the mechanics of the game - it's presented as sort of a visual novel style, but I enjoyed that it was fully voice acted. I found it challenging enough at certain points to really make the moments where I figured things out very satisfying. I played through this game pretty continuously until I finished it, because I thought the story was very interesting and I always felt like I was right on the edge of discovering a secret. Sometimes it's kinda hard to review mystery games without giving anything away, but I would say if you're a fan of Return of the Obra Dinn, The Roottrees are Dead, or just mysteries in general, this is a great story and feels like time well spent.

So fun, I'm so mad that it's over. The perfect level of trickiness where it's so satisfying every time you figure something out.

Absolutely worth picking up, once I started to figure things out I couldn't put it down until it was finished!

Very well made game. I thought the game mechanics were fun, though they did get a bit monotonous by the end. They story was great. I enjoyed some of the plot twists. The game is a bit short. I got 100% after 15 hours, but it was a lot fun, and an interesting idea.

Really enjoyed this game. Has an interesting story that gets a little bit twisty, great horror-adjacent vibes, fill in the blanks detective work right out of Obra Dinn, and the character location tracking The Seance of Blake Manor in service of sussing it all out. The length also felt about right, without excessive unnecessary padding and a pretty straight forward route to full completion. I'd recommend this to fans of games like The Case of the Golden Idol, or Seance of Blake Manor in a heartbeat.

Very Fun! I love a whodunnit and this one was spectacular. I loved trying to untangle the story. If you want something super challenging then this might not be the game for you, otherwise I really recommend picking it up.

What you think is the beginning to act 3 is really the end of act 1

If you enjoy the detective/mystery genre I think this is a pretty easy recommend to check out. I thoroughly enjoyed it. For context I went in blind, not knowing anything about the older game this is based on.

A great game even for those that played the original Type Help (though they will likely solve 80% of it pretty quickly).

Genuinely one of the best mystery games I have ever played. To say more would be spoilers. Just Play This Game.
