I played "Type Help" more than a year ago and have been looking forward to this version of the game ever since then. Even if you played the original this is well worth your time.
I bought this to be nice, as a way of saying "thanks" for one of the best computer games I've ever played in my life. Then I fired it up, just because it feels weird to buy a game and not at least start it. Now I can't put it down. I was skeptical of the UI overhaul but it's perfect. It manages to keep all the good bits from the text version while adding in QOL improvements and fun new layers. And the story itself is such that it's actually really satisfying to replay, knowing everything you wind up knowing after the first time. In short, dang. Nice work everyone, hope this blows up like Roottrees.
A genuinely amazing mystery/puzzle game. It does a great job of teaching you how to play intuitively and stayed fun throughout the entire play time. To me this game feels like a combination of The Roottrees and Dead and Return of the Obra Dinn. I highly recommend if you like either of those games or if you like similar games such as The Seance at Blake Manor, Cultist Simulator, or even Outer Wilds. This is definitely one of those games that you can only play for the first time once.
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.
Great detective game. The plot is impecable. It is really interesting. Great job
A well-written mystery I througly enjoyed. Great characters. Anything more would be spoilers. Just play it.
One of the best deduction games since Return of the Obra Dinn
if you love puzzles, this is a great one.
Extremely solid puzzle mystery game. The gameplay with the machine is very novel and does a great job at making you want to learn everything you can about what happened at the house and its inhabitants. I've played the original so it's hard to judge this one fresh, but I'd say it did a fantastic job of updating it to a more "fully-fledged" game, with the voice acting, soundtrack and artwork making many story sequences hit a lot harder. A part of me prefers the simple and dry text adventure of Type Help, but The Incident at Galley House is a wonderful experience on its own for newcomers and returning players alike.
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.
