The Incident at Galley House Beginner Guide

Learn how to begin investigating Galley House with spoiler-aware notes, memory-machine habits, and safe first-session priorities.

Spoiler note: this page keeps direct late-game answers separated from early investigation guidance.

Start with observation, not brute force

Treat every memory as evidence. Write down names, room labels, time markers, repeated phrases, and contradictions before trying random combinations.

Use the notebook as your case board

Group clues by people, places, and times. When two details point to the same identity or location, record the reason instead of only the answer.

Choose the smallest hint first

If you are stuck, prefer a prompt that tells you what to recheck. Open direct solutions only after you have exhausted the machine, notebook, timeline, and built-in help.
