Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls is in chaos. A prefect has plummeted from a window, and you, Verity Amersham, are the prime suspect. In Expelled!, the gripping new mystery from inkle (creators of Overboard!), you have just one day to clear your name—or cleverly frame someone else.
Set in the elegant backdrop of April 1922, you play Verity, a scholarship student navigating the treacherous social landscape of an elite boarding school. Voiced by Amelia Tyler (of Baldur’s Gate 3 fame), Verity’s carefully constructed reputation is shattered by this shocking accusation. Survival demands more than just good grades; it demands cunning.
This isn't your typical choose-your-own-adventure. Every decision—from your movements around the school to the words you speak—has cascading consequences. The school's inhabitants react in real-time to your actions, creating a dynamic and unpredictable environment. Alliances shift, suspicions rise, and trust becomes a precious commodity. Who are your true friends, and who's ready to throw you under the bus?
Solve the mystery through shrewd deduction, or employ deceit and manipulation to secure your freedom. Need an alibi? Fabricate one. Desperate? Shift the blame. The more you push boundaries, the more possibilities unfold.
Each playthrough offers a unique experience, lasting roughly 30-45 minutes. Your choices unlock new clues, lead to diverse outcomes, and reveal hidden secrets within the school's walls. Uncover the mysteries of the locked cellar, your friend's clandestine behavior, and strive for the ultimate prize: the coveted position of Head Girl. But be warned, the path to the top is paved with peril.
