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?

What an absolutely phenomenal game. My jaw is on the floor. The UI is a work of art to enable a deduction and investigation game that is extremely interesting and simple to comprehend the mechanics of. The core mystery is not what it seems at firsts and there is a twist towards the end that had me cackling in surprise. This is quite simply one of the best adventure games ever made and might well be my game of the year. PLAY THIS!!!!
通关留念 没玩type help直接体验了新作,前头主线没啥难度,收尾阶段突然感觉脑子长起来了然后就结束了,终归是没有鲁特里抓心挠肝的过瘾,但酣畅淋漓的痴呆复健体验凑成的11个小时还是很愉快的! 7/10

通宵打完了。 爽。 剧情某种意义上还挺温馨的(不是)。 就是一开始看房间代码以为是英文缩写,想着这汉化不够全面啊,纠结了几个词之后发现是拼音……嗯这有点太全面了!!! [spoiler]新手指引不是很友好,但是能对上剧情,所以好评。[/spoiler]
Amazingly fun game. Story was gripping and powerful. All of the scene connections were relatively easy to figure out, and the twists were brilliantly done. I can't remember anything else that you'd want to know before buying this game.
Great detective game. The plot is impecable. It is really interesting. Great job
Albeit different from Roottrees, I think this is another excellent entry into the deduction genre. I'm only 3 hours in as things are starting to get meaty and my notes are building out - as expected - the balance of deduction and available information, as well as needed guesswork and trial and error, are phenomenally constructed here. After a couple steps training you how to think, the game really allows logic to flow and the depth of the machine tech really allows for that
if you love puzzles, this is a great one.
One of the best deduction games since Return of the Obra Dinn
Type help was one of my favourite mystery games I've played. And this rendition of it is incredible. It is a great way to (re)experience the original with some extras added for those who already played it. Highly recommended if you love any mystery/detective games.
中度烧脑轻量级变格推理游戏,这时间回溯的玩法和推进节奏做得太棒了,剧情非常精彩,大结局也很感动,真的,太令人怅然若失了。
