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
即使剧透也必须声明,这不是暴风雪山庄式推理解密,而是灵异故事。主角不是调查员,只算一个旁观者。游戏里没有证据与逻辑链推理,只有超自然现象与微恐怖气氛,总的来说是一部表现形式独特的互动有声灵异小说。 故事的最后约三分之一部分算是一个转折与高潮,总体叙事节奏还不错,结尾的演出很好。如果不介意这是一个没有合理解释的荒诞灵异故事,建议打折再购入。
A short game, but a brilliant story that makes perfect use of the medium it's told through. It wouldn't be a great story as a book or film, but in the way you can explore it yourself through Cluedo-like hints... well, let's just say every reveal makes you hunger for the next discovery. Play it blindly, don't go looking for spoilers.

很精彩
Excellent mystery game for those who like a bit of information sleuthing and deduction.
I loved every part of this game. A timeline mystery that drops you in the middle of nowhere and you just have to keep figuring things out. Then, just when you think you have it, you're wrong. Incredible.
so fun! interesting new format for a deduction-based game.
Excellent mystery solver. 10/10
After The Roottrees are Dead I had high expectations for this game. And I must say, it did not disappoint! The story is interesting, and the gameplay is good. The progression feels very natural, and gets very satisfying once you start to understand what is going on. I'll be waiting for the next game with impatience (no pressure)
