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
Great detective game. The plot is impecable. It is really interesting. Great job
I really enjoyed this game! I loved the story and loved the entire gameplay loop. It was one of those games that left me with a bit of an empty feeling when it was over. I wish I could wipe my brain and play it for the first time again. It reminded me of Obra Dinn so if that's your kind of game, I think you would enjoy Galley House.

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.
Made me cry
One of the best deduction games since Return of the Obra Dinn
程よい長さで満足感ある作品。謎解きが好きな人におすすめ。 過去の場面を覗ける霊的な機械装置を使って登場人物の名前や居場所を演繹的な推理で探っていく。 得られるヒントを基に真相に迫っていく過程が面白い。 「何が起こっているんだ?」という状況から、事件の仕掛けに気づき始め、伏線回収しつつエンディングに向かっていくのが気持ちいい。 [spoiler]最近はやけに雷が多い。[/spoiler]
A well-written mystery I througly enjoyed. Great characters. Anything more would be spoilers. Just play it.
Really good story, would recommend! Quality game and production.
Coooool
Overall: 5/10 - Worth a Weekend Story: 5/10 World: 5/10 Bosses: n/a Gameplay: 6/10 Difficulty: 5/10 The main draw of this game is the deductive puzzles. The story and gameplay are nothing particularly special, but the main enjoyment comes from piecing together the main mystery. It gets a little stale quicker then I would like, but its a short enough game that it didnt keep me from having fun.
