"Expelled! Game Challenges Players to Clear Name or Frame Others"

At Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls, a troubling incident has unfolded—a school prefect has been pushed out of a window, and you're the one accused. Dive into the gripping narrative of Expelled!, the latest mystery game from inkle, the creators behind Overboard!. With only one day to clear your name or find someone else to blame, every decision you make is crucial.

Set in the spring of 1922, Expelled! casts you as Verity Amersham, a scholarship student at an elite boarding school. Voiced by the talented Amelia Tyler, known for her role in Baldur's Gate 3, Verity has always tried to keep her head down. But now, accused of attempted murder, she must navigate a web of deceit and danger to save herself.

In Expelled!, your actions aren't just limited to dialogue choices. Every move you make—from where you go, who you talk to, and what you say—shapes the story. NPCs roam the school in real-time, reacting to your actions and decisions. Some may aid you, while others could be plotting your downfall. The question remains: who can you really trust?

You have the option to solve the mystery legitimately, but you can also resort to lies, misdirection, or manipulation to secure your freedom. Need an alibi? Persuade someone to cover for you. Desperate times call for desperate measures? Shift the blame to another. The more you push the boundaries, the more paths you unlock.

Each playthrough of Expelled! lasts between 30 to 45 minutes, yet no two experiences are alike. Your choices pave the way to new clues, alternate endings, and hidden secrets scattered around the school. Unravel why the cellar is off-limits or what your best friend is concealing. If you manage to avoid expulsion, you might even climb the ranks to become Head Girl.
