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?

Reviews
It's a very fun mystery. Just the right amount of puzzle and spookiness. It does make me want to go back into it again and try and see if I can ferret out all the little details.
Very well written mistery game.
先前就已經通關網頁版,來支持製作組了。本體的劇情是毫無爭議的精彩,不再過多贅述。後面的一段劇情應該是製作組自己加上的,也讓玩家體驗到了遊戲內角色的心境與情緒,頗有畫龍點睛的感覺。唯一美中不足的是一定要一個一個扭轉輪拉閘才能進行一次搜索,效率比起網頁版大打折扣;但另一方面也比網頁版直觀了不少,算是變向降低遊戲難度了。

The Incident at Galley House is a fantastic game that really raises the bar for mystery/adventure games. I completed the game with all achievements in around 8 hours, without needing to look up any solutions and thoroughly enjoyed it. Each step of the game feels logical and enjoyable, and allows for experimenting and making slight logical leaps without ever requiring it. The story itself is really interesting and enjoyable and reveals itself slowly over the game with the nonlinear nature really keeping things obscured until the reveal. It almost feels like an iteration on the very flawed, though fun NightTrap, with the multiple locations and stories all playing out together as you piece together the greater picture. This one is fully worth the full $20, but if you get it on a sale, even better. Either way, this is one of the best games I've played this year.
I loved the story and concept so much! I really hope for more puzzle/mystery games like this in the future (: Took me about 11 hours to get all the achievements, and only in one run.
Very good
This was so much fun and very interesting. The voice acting is top notch! I really liked the story and the characters. I didn't truly figure it all out until the very end. Awesome game! The only problem I had was with the game crashing every so often. I did try one of the troubleshooting tips by deleting the shader file but it ended up crashing two more times anyway. Still. 10/10 deduction experience.
Very much enjoyed. Leaps felt better than Roottrees and the story and VA was good.
Purchase immediately.
Excellent deduction game with an ominous atmosphere. Cannot wait to figure out the entire mystery.
