"The Incident at Galley House" is out now on Steam! You might also enjoy our previous game, “The Roottrees are Dead”. Previously: co-founder of Discourse https://galley.house https://roottrees.com https://eviltrout.com

If we sometimes miss the sparse presentation of the original's read-only memories, there's no question that this rework makes Galley House far more approachable than its predecessor. And, vitally, far better suited for playing from the sofa, with the Watson to your Holmes (or vice versa). Even if you've played Type Help, the game remains very much afoot. 8

A herring is a fish. When a herring is preserved by salting and smoking, it turns red and smells. It’s so pungent that it’s a great diversion to distract hunting dogs from their trail. Now, a ‘red herring’ refers to anything that diverts attention from the issue at hand.
