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?

Fantastic story and mechanics. Amazing game!
The reason I bought this game was that I saw Olexa play it. I finished his first video on it and got ragebaited into playing it myself. "He's Rupert Galley but also somehow Eddie?" Like, people can share last names. But, anyway, back to the actual game. So, I progressed pretty fast through the game at first and, honestly, I kinda made a lot of inferences without much evidence (and they often were right). However, playstyle aside, seeing the story unravel was incredible. The foreshadowing and reveals, especially the final reveal which I genuinely didn't expect at all, were awesome. I truly do hope that Reya recovers from this level of trauma. As a story by itself, peak, and the gameplay elements just made it that much better. I 100% recommend this game for anyone who likes a bit of mystery. p. s. there were moments where it felt kinda like a horror game, like I was actively imaging that something would pop out at me, and I will neither confirm nor deny that I got scared at some point.

I liked the format of the game and the way that you slowly uncover the mystery, It was an interesting story and I liked the twist a lot. Loved the Roottrees as well, so looking forward to more unique ways to tell stories from Evil Trout
Love it
Loved the concept. Got a little repetative after a while but that also somehow whats cool about it

Fun murder mystery kind of game, mostly text-based. I don't recommend doing it when very tired, but despite me doing my best to make it hard on myself I mostly only was getting stuck when I accidentally didn't set one of the scenes correctly.
This is a real gem of a game. It is not quite a puzzle game and not quite a visual novel. Rather a thrilling story that you get to explore in a non-linear way and piece together yourself. It is really satisfying when you figure things out.
Another absolute banger from this team. The voice acting is INCREDIBLE. I felt sufficiently and authentically challenged by the mystery, while also having an incredibly user friendly experience as I did playing Roottree. It's like Obra Dinn had clues that made sense. [spoiler] also the gaslighting at the end, while extremely cool, was VERY rude. [/spoiler] 10/10 would recommend
