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?

Very fun game. Finished it very quickly because I needed to know what happened.
William Rous is a MAD GENIOUS! It was insanely fun to discover every last thing in this game. The writing is pure flex in narrative joggling. Acting is great, atmosphere just right. Absolute recommendation to everyone who likes detective games of any kind!

Amazing game. Really rewarding when you figure something out and had a lot more to the story than I was expecting. Couldn't recommend it more.
Fantastic deductive mystery game, not that surprising given that it's from the same people who gave us The Roottrees are Dead, but they have delivered another solid hit here. Scratches a specific itch in the same way as the aforementioned Roottrees and the equally as amazing Obra Dinn.
Very good
a great combination of all my favorite things: a cursed family, an evil house, and a player piano
Great game would replay it if I didn't know everything already. If you have time and like a puzzle game even if it is repetitive, you'll have a good time.
Great puzzle game, fascinating story, interesting twists
Type Help was a wonderful game that transitioned to this format extremely well. What was previously merely text on a page and a lot of reading and typing is made infinitely easier to manage with this interface. With the old game, I'd had a notepad open and was making lots of notes on who each person was, where they are at any given time, and basically had a list of all the codes as I discovered them; this game allows the player to get away with not taking quite as many since the logs are easier to manage with this visual style. I had a lot of fun with this. Anybody that needs a fun puzzler should enjoy this one.
Excellent jeu que je n'ai pas pu quitter avant d'en avoir atteint le bout. Le visuel est splendide- je n'ai cessé de m'émerveiller devant l'effet 'onde d'eau' à chaque début de scène après avoir validé le bon code- et le doublage authentique ! Bien que certains puissent trouver les réactions particulières et peut-être peu réaliste, ce jeu ne s'inscrit pas dans une narrative à calquer sur la vraie vie. On comprend très vite que cette 'malédiction' semble d'un autre univers, plongé dans un parallèle bien plus tangible. Je n'en dirais pas plus, pour ne pas gâcher l'expérience joueur, mais si vous êtes une personne férue de jeu d'enquête, d'énigme, de mystère, tout ça lié par l'émotion et par le travail bien fait, n'hésitez pas une seule seconde ! Bravo à toutes les équipes, acteurs - actrices, coordinateurs et coordinatrices, à tout ceux qui ont participé à ce fantastique jeu !!
