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
Evil Trout has done it again! When I finished playing Roottrees last year (my personal GOTY 2025) I immediately signed up for their newsletter to keep tabs on any upcoming games. The wait is finally up for The Incident at Galley House and my god was it worth it! Another absolute banger. The creativity and thoroughness of this game is perfectly well crafted. The story is brilliant and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Just next level! Could not stop playing!! Highly recommend.

Gameplay-wise a lot like Unheard, but set in a single protracted case with multiple victims in an English mansion. Like Unheard you can technically only hear things, so there isn't blood on screen or anything, but diegetically you are supposed to assign names and profile pictures to the voices which act out each scene on screen. The soundtrack is a highlight of the game including the scoring for individual scenes, lending a twisted, haunting vibe to everything. The best part is the plot, which I won't say anything about. The worst part (and I don't think they're that bad) is the characters, who mostly have one trait such as being alcoholic or paranoid and are there to react quite realistically to the plot. It still tugs at the heartstrings quite often but I think falls short of being devastating because of the simple characterization. One warning: despite being dressed up in golden age tropes, this is not the locked room or alibi type of detective story. However it's an easy recommend if you're in the mood for something a bit unhinged.

不是暴雪山庄,甚至不是口人案
I will always remember this game fondly.
好玩,随着脉络梳理发现一些细节背后的隐喻时兴奋到后背发凉 [spoiler] 但结尾好仓促,虎头蛇尾的感觉,我缺失的诅咒的前因这块谁给我补啊 [/spoiler]
剧情环环相扣层层递进,氛围塑造得太棒了,配音满分!!
