Framed for a crime you didn't commit? In inkle's Expelled!, a gripping mystery set in a 1922 girls' boarding school, you play Verity Amersham, a scholarship student wrongly accused of attempted murder. With just one day to clear your name, every decision matters.
Your choices – who you talk to, where you go, and what you say – directly impact the unfolding narrative. Characters move and react in real time, creating a dynamic and unpredictable experience. Trust is a fragile commodity; some will aid your quest, others will seek your downfall.
The game offers multiple paths to resolution. Solve the mystery honestly, or employ deceit and manipulation to escape the consequences. Forge alibis, shift blame, and uncover hidden secrets within the school's walls. The more you deviate from the truth, the more options become available.
Each playthrough, lasting approximately 30-45 minutes, offers a unique experience. Uncover the mysteries of the locked cellar, your friend's hidden agenda, and strive for the ultimate prize: the position of Head Girl.
Featuring a jazz soundtrack by legendary artists like George Gershwin, Louis Armstrong, and Bessie Smith, Expelled! masterfully blends suspenseful investigation with a constantly evolving narrative. Your path to exoneration – and the lengths you'll go to achieve it – are entirely in your hands.
Expelled! launches March 12th on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and iOS. While you wait, explore our list of the best narrative mobile games!
