Ever wondered why anyone would choose to send their child to a boarding school? Beyond the usual challenges like peer pressure, loneliness, and an air of elitism, there's also the risk of dramatic events like someone being pushed out a window! While that might not be a common occurrence everywhere, it's certainly the case in Expelled!, the latest release from inkle, the creative minds behind Overboard.
In Expelled!, you step into the shoes of Verity Amersham, a seemingly virtuous student at Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls in 1922. But when a prefect is suddenly pushed out of a window, Verity finds herself accused of attempted murder! With just one school day to clear her name, you must navigate through a web of moving characters and unfolding events to race against time. Whether you choose to exonerate yourself by uncovering the true culprit, framing someone else, or resorting to brute force with your hockey stick, the decision is yours to make!
It's incredibly easy to recommend Expelled!, even without diving into Catherine Dellosa's glowing review. Inkle, the studio behind my all-time favorite mobile game, 80 Days, has once again struck gold with the thrilling murder-themed visual novel Overboard!. Although Expelled! features a less sinister protagonist, you have the freedom to play it straight, pin the crime on someone else, or embrace your inner teenage vigilante. And let's not forget the intriguing twist—Verity may not be as innocent as she initially appears!
You'll have to dive into Expelled! yourself to uncover the full story. And if you're eager to stay updated on the best upcoming releases, you're in the perfect spot. We've already compiled a list of the most anticipated games for 2025, ready for you to explore!
