The Incident at Galley House

if you love puzzles, this is a great one.

One of the best deduction games since Return of the Obra Dinn

One of the most unique and captivating games I have ever played. I literally couldn’t walk away, I forgot to eat food or drink water and ended the day with a blinding migraine because I loved this game so much

Jump back in time to watch scenes play out like Obra Dinn, but you've got a machine that lets you jump to exactly where you want (even down to the exact line of dialogue) without having to watch the same transition over and over. Piece together relationships and motives like Roottrees, but it's a murder mystery instead of genealogical research. Setting reminiscent of one of the best Agatha Christie novels but with spooky stuff and a completely different cast. This one sets a new standard for detective/deduction games that really make you use your brain. I want to especially call out just how good it feels to lock in a code. You think successfully locking in three correct answers feels good in Obra Dinn/Roottrees? Try this. The UI is also excellent. There's a ton of information and they give you all the tools you need to cross-reference it by time/person/location, bookmark important parts of scenes, and take notes.

I came into this game from "type help", which I loved. This is a strictly better version in my opinion, a wonderful puzzle game with lots of unique ideas and a central discovery mechanic that I haven't seen elsewhere, aside from maybe TR-49. If you like puzzles, you'll likely like this; it's a wonderful clockwork watch of a game, with lots of interlinking parts and careful construction.

they did it again 10/10

Fixed most of the problems from "The roottrees are dead", the biggest one being the variance in difficulty, where there really isn't any really hard clues that are easily overlooked
