Expelled! sees you framed as a killer in a Girl\'s Boarding School, but was it you?

If you've ever questioned the merits of sending a child to boarding school, Expelled! from inkle, the creators of Overboard, might just reinforce your doubts. Set against the backdrop of peer pressure, isolation, and elitism, the game throws in a dramatic twist with attempted murder at Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls in 1922. Here, you step into the shoes of Verity Amersham, a seemingly virtuous schoolgirl accused of pushing a prefect out of a window.

In Expelled!, you have one school day to clear your name, and the clock is ticking. Characters move and act independently, adding urgency to your quest for exoneration. Whether you choose to uncover the true culprit, frame an innocent, or resort to more aggressive tactics like using your hockey stick, the decision is yours.
