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

Why would anyone choose to send their child to a boarding school? Between the peer pressure, the isolation, and the inherent elitism, it's a tough sell. And if that's not enough, there's the added risk of being implicated in a crime like attempted murder, as seen in inkle's latest release, Expelled!

In Expelled!, you step into the shoes of Verity Amersham, a seemingly innocent student at Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls in 1922. When a prefect is mysteriously pushed out of a window, Verity finds herself accused of the crime. Your mission? Clear your name within a single school day, as characters around you move and act independently, creating a race against time.

You have the freedom to choose your path to exoneration. Whether you decide to uncover the true culprit, frame someone else, or resort to more aggressive tactics like wielding your hockey stick, the choice is yours. This flexibility in gameplay is a hallmark of inkle's design, seen in their acclaimed titles like 80 Days and the murder mystery Overboard!.

While Verity may appear less sinister than some of inkle's previous protagonists, Expelled! allows you to navigate the story with varying degrees of morality. You can play it straight, manipulate the situation to your advantage, or embrace a more vengeful approach. And as you delve deeper, you might discover that Verity's innocence isn't as clear-cut as it initially seems.

To experience the full intrigue of Expelled!, you'll need to play it yourself. And if you're eager to stay updated on the latest and greatest upcoming releases, you're in the right place. Check out our list of the best upcoming games for 2025 to keep your gaming calendar packed with excitement.

It's easy to recommend Expelled!, especially considering the glowing review from Catherine Dellosa. Inkle, the studio behind my personal favorite mobile game, 80 Days, has once again struck gold with this engaging visual novel. Whether you're drawn to the narrative depth or the moral choices, Expelled! promises a compelling experience.
