"Expelled: Clear Your Name by Catching or Framing the Culprit"

Author:Kristen Update:Apr 24,2025

At Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls, a troubling incident has occurred: a school prefect has been pushed out of a window, and you're the one accused. In *Expelled!*, the latest mystery game from inkle, the creators of *Overboard!*, you have just one day to clear your name or cleverly shift the blame onto someone else.

Set in April 1922, *Expelled!* follows the journey of Verity Amersham, a scholarship student at an elite boarding school. Voiced by Amelia Tyler, known for her role in *Baldur's Gate 3*, Verity has always tried to avoid trouble. But now, accused of attempted murder, she must navigate her way out of this dire situation.

In this game, your choices are pivotal. Every action, location, conversation, and word you choose shapes the narrative. NPCs roam the school in real-time, responding dynamically to your actions. Some may aid your quest, while others will seek to thwart you. The question remains: who can you truly trust?

Expelled! Gameplay ScreenshotYou have the option to unravel the mystery or to use deceit, misdirection, and manipulation to secure your safety. Need an alibi? Persuade someone to cover for you. Desperate? Perhaps you'll pin the blame on someone else. The more you push the boundaries, the more paths open up for you.

Each playthrough of *Expelled!* lasts approximately 30-45 minutes, ensuring that no two experiences are identical. Your choices unlock new clues, lead to different endings, and reveal hidden secrets scattered around the school. Discover why the cellar is locked or why your best friend is acting secretive. If you manage to avoid expulsion, you can even aim for the prestigious rank of Head Girl.

Accompanied by a soundtrack featuring jazz icons such as George Gershwin, Louis Armstrong, and Bessie Smith, *Expelled!* combines a gripping mystery with a story that evolves with every decision you make. How you will clear your name, and to what lengths you'll go, is entirely in your hands.

*Expelled!* is set to launch on March 12th, available on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and iOS.
