Why would anyone choose to send their child to boarding school? Aside from the usual challenges like peer pressure, loneliness, and elitism, there's also the risk of being accused of attempted murder! This is the thrilling premise of Expelled!, the latest release from inkle, the creative minds behind Overboard.
In Expelled!, you step into the shoes of Verity Amersham, a seemingly innocent schoolgirl at Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls in 1922. When a prefect is mysteriously pushed out of a window, Verity finds herself wrongfully accused of the crime. Now, she has just one school day to clear her name, and the clock is ticking as characters move and act independently around her.
Your mission is to clear your name by any means necessary. Will you uncover the real culprit, frame an innocent classmate, or resort to brute force with your hockey stick? The choice is yours, and each decision shapes your path to acquittal.
It's easy to recommend Expelled!, especially considering the praise it has received, such as Catherine Dellosa's glowing review. Inkle, known for creating my all-time favorite mobile game, 80 Days, and the gripping visual novel Overboard, continues to impress with this new title. While Expelled! features a less sinister protagonist than Overboard, you have the freedom to play it straight, shift the blame onto someone else, or embrace your inner vigilante. And, as an added twist, Verity may not be as innocent as she initially appears.
To uncover the full story and explore all possible outcomes, you'll need to dive into Expelled! yourself.
