"Expelled: Clear Your Name by Catching the Culpit or Framing Another"

At Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls, a chilling incident unfolds: 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 masterminds behind Overboard!. With just one day to clear your name or find a scapegoat, the stakes couldn't be higher.

Set in the spring of April 1922, Expelled! puts you in the shoes of 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 intrigue to save herself.

In Expelled!, your choices are more than just dialogue options. Every action you take, every location you visit, and every conversation you engage in shapes the narrative. NPCs roam the school in real-time, responding to your actions and influencing the story. Some may offer assistance, while others could be plotting your downfall. The question remains: who can you trust?

Your approach to solving the mystery is flexible. You can seek the truth, but you also have the option to lie, deceive, or manipulate to secure your safety. Need an alibi? Persuade someone to vouch for you. Desperate times call for desperate measures? Shift the blame onto someone else. The more you push the boundaries, the more paths open up for you.

Each playthrough of Expelled! lasts between 30 to 45 minutes, yet no two experiences are the same. Your decisions unlock new clues, lead to varied outcomes, and reveal hidden secrets scattered throughout the school. Discover the mystery behind the locked cellar or your best friend's secretive behavior. If you manage to avoid expulsion, you might even aim for the prestigious title of Head Girl.

Expelled! is set to launch on March 12th, available on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and iOS. Get ready to unravel the mystery and shape your destiny.
