The Incident at Galley House

Evil Trout Inc. has released The Incident at Galley House on Steam, a title rooted in the studio's prior work on The Roottrees are Dead.

The game is adapted from Type Help, described in the announcement as a critically acclaimed text game. Set in 1936, it centers on a visit to Galley House and involves experimenting with a strange machine to uncover what occurred on a particular night.

What's available at launch

  • The game is out now via Steam (AppID 3641000)
  • A 10% discount is in effect for launch week
  • A selection of bundles with other games is available alongside the release

The announcement offers little further detail on mechanics or scope, so the picture remains partial — but for players who followed The Roottrees are Dead or the original Type Help, this release marks the studio's next step in the same investigative tradition.
