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?

已通关,个人觉得还算不错的一款改编游戏,在原作的基础上加上了调查员的剧情,游戏剧情有备受好评的原作当底子所以很精彩,但是游玩的过程中缺点也有很多,不知道制作组有没有后续优化的意向: ①时间点旋钮很难用,加载动画非常长,正确的动画我可以接受,但是错误的时候也要观看三秒电流加操纵杆落下有点烦人。 ②角色立绘只有站姿,其他姿势会变回小黑人,观感不太好。 ③配音语速有点慢,而且重播剧情某句话的时候会转场进动画,感觉可以改成在显示器页面能单独播放这句话。 ④笔记本完全没有一点用处,至少对我来说是完全没有,我一个字都没写过,本作有了可视化面板后难度大降低,完全不需要记笔记了。 新增的调查员剧情感觉和游戏本身剧情融合得还不错,尤其是一开始莫名其妙出现的线索和发电机老是炸在后面都有种恍然大悟的感觉,最后00的剧情也是让人很感慨,一群人随着剧情的发展一直在互相埋怨和争吵,让人忘记了他们原本也算是其乐融融的一家人。 游戏流程好短,我玩鲁特里都是10+h,但是这个5.5h就通关了,文本量没有前作大,我个人认为定价有点贵了,不过依旧是不错的游戏吧。
The Incident At Galley House builds onto Type Help very well, and without spoiling anything, it went beyond Type Help in a very creative and interesting way. Honestly I loved it and the system if you wanted to find something was really well organized. I will just say, I do miss the comments from the original and the secret codes you could find.
An absolute masterclass in deductive mystery games. It's in a league of it's own.
Great game. Knew nothing going in, had a great time.
Just absolutely phenomenal. I never played Type Help as when I discovered Roottrees, I wanted to save my playthrough for this remake. I realise that Red Pearls of Borneo follows the design of this game, and what a wonderful game this was! A proper deduction and logic game that scratched that itch I've been waiting for since Roottrees. Well done again!
if you love puzzles, this is a great one.
没玩过原作,但感觉确实是非常有诚意的重制了,通灵部分基本可以当全配音的视觉小说看了,而且大大夸赞汉化大佬,从鲁特里开始就没让人失望过,汉化质量满分。原作这个剧本也是非常的优秀,第一次悟出来规则的时候堪比罗辑顿悟黑暗森林法则,非常不错的“尤里卡”时刻,而且重制版还补充了调查员小队的故事,剧情更完整了,属于是刺客信条现代剧情梦想中的自己了()
与鲁特里一家死了一样爽快的游戏体验,虽然没玩过原作但我认为全程配音和游戏系统值得这个价
Très bon jeu d'enquête, remake d'un jeu text only. 5/6h d'enquêtes avec un mystère prenant et bien raconté. Le système d'indice est suffisamment progressif et ne révèle pas trop à la fois. Si vous aimez les jeux d'enquêtes, c'est une recommandation facile :)
Solid mystery, though I wasn't a huge fan of the mysticism/sci-fi side of the mystery itself. I went in to it expecting a whodunnit but it's more about piecing together a timeline of events and uncovering what is going on here. The final act uses the game's internal rules very well and I thought it was very clever. 7/10 ish. respectable though maybe a little obtuse at times I wanted more tools for tracking people/bodies and people would be vague about their destination/origin which made me lean on the hint system a little bit more than I'd want to. That said, the hint system is pretty good and does a solid job of nudging you along before it eventually tells you the answer.
