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?

とても面白かった
I played the original version TYPE HELP on itch a while ago and was stoked to see that it was picked up and would get graphics. I love text basic games but the graphics provided soooooo much to the gameplay and made it a way better time for me.
Great detective/puzzle game, gives me vibes of Obra Dinn and Seance at Blake Manor and similar to Roottrees. Can recommend.

非本格,一般吧,不喜欢非本格
Super fun mystery, really interesting and well done
好游戏,推荐!9.5/10 游戏时间10小时左右(这还是认真做笔记的情况下)推荐价60(喜欢解谜)40(非) 优点:1. 几乎没有脑洞式的推理,所有推理解开的过程都能自然地想到,或者是其伏笔or线索埋在了没发现or还没解锁的地方 2. 剧本不能说很精彩,但是很完整,通过这种有逻辑的推理可以解开所有的谜题,最后全部呈现出来,非常完整。故事虽然简单,但是将推理的形式体现到位了 3. 视觉效果做的还可以,加上配音,确实能做到让人沉浸其中,耐心感受 缺点:有些地方还是有点毛刺需要优化,比如[spoiler]在场景中一上来就打开笔记并不能暂停,以及修改人物名称后并不能立刻切其他画面,需要先点一下其他位置,不然人物名称不保存[/spoiler],但这都无伤大雅,几乎没有硬问题
I played the original, Type Help, and while I liked this version too, I will always recommend Type Help for the first playthrough, and this for the second. The writing is so good that either version works well, but I think the atmosphere in the text based version is better, carried so much through the notes left behind by @, as you read the thoughts of the only other person to learn what happened at Galley House. If I had one request for the game, it would be for some of those notes to be adapted to become things the new main character says to herself, for example, she have some of the same comment as @ did on the fate of 2, and the comment at time 13 where @ asks whether it's normal for someone to talk to himself, like one of the people does, which could be both a funny reveal later, and help develop Reya's personality more, as well as push the atmosphere further. Even 3 moments like that would make a big difference. If I could have two requests, it would be for art for when characters sit/lie down, so that it isn't just a silhouette with a face floating above it. [spoiler] I enjoyed most of the new content, but the last thing we see, scene 0, did not feel like it was dramatic or interesting enough to end on. We already know that what happens to Reya is survivable, so it's not that, and we assume she's going to destroy the machine. I would have also liked a mention of the possibility that there is more than one chain, which was in the text game. And I don't feel like I understand what the point of the Noetic Booster is as an invention. [/spoiler]
Very fun, but difficult
好玩 无数次头皮发麻 后面发现规律后后背发凉 快点再出新作!
蛮有意思的,特别是在第三个人死亡时大概就猜到了机制,然后就轻松多了。最后通关之后原型机的合影很让人有成就感
