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
This is one of the best detective games ever. After The Roottrees are dead i am so happy they made this! Just amazing!
Great game, I love when stories have the gumption to leave things to mystery, so if anyone complains about that (which I've seen) then they should be immediately ignored and shunned. If you like games like TR-47 and Return of the Obra Dinn play this immediately. Best story of 2026 so far and it isn't even close.

Incredibly well constructed game with excellent voice performances. If you like mysteries and puzzles and games where you need to take notes and maybe make an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of things, this is your jam. Probably gonna end up as my GOTY.
The mechanics were a bit tricky to figure out at first, and I do find myself using hints a lot - but this is fun and I'm looking forward to figuring out wtf is going on
Only just started but I've played Type Help, one of my all time favorite games. I'll update this later with thoughts on Galley House but I already know the game is well worth playing.
An excellent, atmospheric puzzle game that is absolutely worth playing. The story is engaging, spooky, and full of intrigue, the characters are well-written and interesting, and the mechanics of the puzzle aspect are really well done. While I did enjoy The Roottrees are Dead, The Seance at Blake Manor, and Blue Prince a bit more, this is still absolutely a top five puzzle game for me.
An amazing deduction game with great story. The visuals and voice acting are also really good. Overall would recommend to anyone who enjoys investigation, deduction and mystery.
个人感觉比鲁特里更吸引我,探索变格的超现实规则还是挺快乐的,理解错规则沾沾自喜引来反转更是不得不品的一环:) 总之伏笔埋得可以,反转的时候还是挺惊艳的,最后的阶段[spoiler] 我在那看第几个就该轮到我了 [/spoiler]好像感觉应该要有一些迫在眉睫的紧张感了但是游戏氛围还是比较平常[spoiler] 说实话里面角色面对尸体好像有点太平淡了,游戏也没怎么体现出来不知道自己会不会下一个死或者自己一定完蛋了的紧张绝望 [/spoiler],有点可惜
