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
One of the best deduction games to date. Right up there with "Return of the Obra Dinn" and "The Case of the Golden Idol". Very satisfying to use the machine to find new scenes and trace clues. I don't think I ever had a situation where something felt (unintentionally) illogical. Highly recommend!
Probably still a pretty steep price for hours played/content, but the story is really intriguing and the mechanics are fun to work with. Got a little frustrated sometimes when I had half a clue and couldn't find the rest, but got there eventually. Voice acting was awesome. This story will definitely stick with me, which also takes away replayability. So yeah, if you're thinking about getting this, either do it if you really love these types of mystery puzzle games or get it in sale somewhere.

Fun and rewarding, putting the various scenes together and gradually seeing the big picture emerge was very satisfying, especially when thing aren't quite as they seem.
Listen to me. There may be a point where it seems kind of grind-y and like all you're doing is filling in missing pieces. I need you to look me in the text and power through. Absolutely stellar offering from the Roottree developers and I need them to get started on the next one.

AMDのグラボ(特にRX 5700 XT)と相性が最悪で、5分に1回クラッシュします。 [url=https://galley.house/support/amd-graphics/][b]公式サイト[/b][/url]の指示に従いOpenGLレンダラーを使用するようにしてからは一度もクラッシュせず最後までプレイできました。 [hr][/hr] ※ 原作である[url=https://william-rous.itch.io/type-help][b]Type Help[/b][/url]は未プレイです。 非常に丁寧な作りで、文句なしの名作です。 ゲーム内ヒントもかなり親切で、最後の実績([spoiler]TYPE ヘ-ル-プ[/spoiler])を除けば、特に行き詰まることもなくスムーズに物語を楽しめるでしょう。 可能な限り事前情報なしで楽しんでほしいですね。 おすすめです。
I enjoyed the game, though wish it was a bit longer. I suppose that's what DLCs or prequels or sequels will eventually cover. Interesting concept, for sure.
This was a really good puzzle game that was plenty challenging, but without ever feeling frustrating. All of the clues were fun to pick through and analyze, and the story was very fun to experience as new information got revealed. It was really fun to theorize about what was happening as more scenes are revealed. Some scenes are very confusing when you first watch them, but become clearer as you continue which is very rewarding. (had plenty of "AHA" moments that actually made me gasp lol) Also have to say that the voice acting is great! It never felt too stiff or forced. Same goes for the sound effects, which (and I could be wrong) sounded like they were recorded specifically for the game and not just picked from a sound library.
开头还是很有趣的,直到[spoiler] 开始主角破案自己的时间线现在到底发生了什么,一切变得乱七八糟且无聊了起来,埋了坑又发现毫无关系 [/spoiler] 为了加利家的事儿玩一下还是值得的,建议打折购入是真的觉得结尾的10%破坏了整个游戏流畅性
[h2]整体评分9分,以下有剧透[/h2] [spoiler] [/h3]优点:[/h3] 1、本地化,极其优秀,官方很看重国内市场,很多解密针对中文拼音有专门的调整,比如英文首字母改成拼音首字母 2、引导,刚上来有基础的引导,然后就没有了,所以推理过程一开始有点摸不着头脑,后续都能通过蛛丝马迹,让你感觉到是“你”推理出来的爽感 3、配音,人员专业,让人能够代入场景,整体严肃压抑的沉浸感能够清晰的感受到,很多时候是通过角色预期的变化感觉到会有线索进而进一步 4、故事,虽然是非本格,但无伤大雅,非本格也能有好剧本 5、细节,非常多,在失忆前后,部分角色性格出现大转变,我也是推到后面了解到前因后果,了解到12的死亡导致01、03和整个宅邸的所有人连接出现断层,然后再跑去看最开始的鹌鹑小路上推车的剧情,看到雷声前后01语气从对主人的抱怨变为拘谨;还有05对03的态度也是,明明时间1的时候交流如此融洽,后面跟不太熟一样,都是12死亡导致的记忆缺失。这种变化一开始都没注意,后面注意到了才惊觉剧本的严谨,令人浑身颤栗 6、人物设定,优秀,哪怕没有名字和画像,通过语音和说话的方式,你都能基本分别出谁是谁 7、情节,每个玩家可能想法不一样,我的想法是,优秀的剧情,沉浸式体验 8、玩法,我知道的有疑案追声和鲁特里一家死了都融合了部分,整体还行吧,毕竟是剧情为主 [h3]缺点:[/h3] 1、对不擅长推理的人可能这种弱引导(其实算比较强的引导了),会摸不着头脑,从目前一半左右的通过率成就也能看出来 2、一开始确实没想过是非本格,以为是有人用某种方式杀人,虽然无伤大雅,但对来玩本格的人来说可能略有不友好 3、现代线略短,整体对话都很仓促,塞了大量密集的线索,很快进入结局,没本篇慢慢推理出结果的感觉爽 4、我推理了半天的人物名称和画像,你好歹给个成就啊。。。。。。。 [/spoiler] [h3]总结:[/h3] 久经打磨的剧情,严肃压抑的沉浸感,满满的细节,专业的配音,独特的美术,丰富的细节,是个难得的佳作。
