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
C'è poco da dire di Evil Trout per ora non ne ha sbagliata una! Dopo "The Roottrees Are Dead" con questo secondo titolo ne escono ancora meglio se possibile, hanno portato ciò che di buono c'era nel loro gioco di debutto e l'hanno migliorato, levigato, smussato e pulito per farlo brillare ancora di più. Un gioco di quelli che scioglieranno le vostre celluline grigie, vi porteranno a ragionare come i vari "...The Golden Idol" o "Return of the Obra Dinn". L'unica pecca è la mancanza dell'italiano, MA, ci voleva un grosso MA, grazie ad una traduzione amatoriale adesso ne potete godere nella nostra lingua. Vi lascio un video qua sotto per mostrarvi il risultato. https://youtu.be/EuCvJ9pIrhQ
I played "Type Help" more than a year ago and have been looking forward to this version of the game ever since then. Even if you played the original this is well worth your time.

Absolutely fantastic detective game that requires good deductive skills. The story and the main mystery itself was a nice surprise, finding the explanation caused a big AHA moment where suddenly everything clicked and made sense.
中度烧脑轻量级变格推理游戏,这时间回溯的玩法和推进节奏做得太棒了,剧情非常精彩,大结局也很感动,真的,太令人怅然若失了。
Great detective game. The plot is impecable. It is really interesting. Great job
Type help was one of my favourite mystery games I've played. And this rendition of it is incredible. It is a great way to (re)experience the original with some extras added for those who already played it. Highly recommended if you love any mystery/detective games.
[h1]「『Return of the Obra Dinn』的なゲームだなぁと思って買ったんだ。――恐ろしいゲームだった......」[/h1] 「いつ」「誰が」「どこに」いたのかを推測するゲーム 登場人物の会話をもとに、断片的な情報を突き合わせていく作業がメインになる 『Return of the Obra Dinn』と同じく、かなりクセの強いミステリである そもそも、"過去の事件現場を再現できる"などというSF世界の装置を軸に進むゲームに、超リアリスティックな本格ミステリを期待する方がお門違いというものだろう 純粋な犯人当てごっこがしたいのなら、Steamを閉じてブックオフにでも行けば宜しい だが、『ギャリー邸事件』の魅力は推理の過程それ自体というよりも、小説では成立しないゲームだからこその仕掛けにある [spoiler]数秒前の出来事を忘れておどおどする登場人物たちを対岸の火事のように見ていたら、ここが対岸ではなかったと気づいた瞬間[/spoiler]は、筆舌に尽くし難い ヘタな殺人事件なんかよりも、よほど恐ろしい [h1]まさに、私にとって『記憶を消してもう一度プレイしたいゲーム』であり――[/h1][spoiler](雷鳴が響く。)[/spoiler]
One of the best deduction games since Return of the Obra Dinn
A well-written mystery I througly enjoyed. Great characters. Anything more would be spoilers. Just play it.
This game is not deserving of the “Overwhelmingly Positive” review status that currently stands. It’s overpriced for what it is. It’s vibe-coded, the controls are janky, the graphics and UI are very dated, the voice acting is poor. I don’t recommend
