LOVE
It’s so good I’m obsessed with it but also genuinely so difficult to get the perfect run, I also personally like it much much more than overboard!

Description
1922. Miss Mulligatawney's School for Promising Girls is one of the best boarding schools in England. You are Verity Amersham, here on a scholarship - and today you're going to be expelled for attempted murder.
From the creators of Overboard! and A Highland Song comes a highly replayable detective game with a wicked twist. Can you escape expulsion through fair means - or foul? Can you find the culprit - or someone else to take the blame?
GAMEPLAY
Gossip, lie, steal, manipulate - but don't get caught!
* Navigate the school day, talk to other characters, sneak around - and try not to get expelled!
* Your actions will affect other characters, who remember everything they see and hear.
* Everyone here has secrets - students and teachers alike. Remember, knowledge is power.
* Unique morality system: the more EVIL you are, the more choices you'll have...
DYNAMIC NARRATIVE CLOCKWORK
* Next-gen visual novel: go where you want, when you want, and say what you want.
* Simulated story-world: other characters move and act independently, remembering everything they see and hear - and everything you do.
* Every minute counts: you have one school day to escape punishment. The clock is always ticking!
* Who can you trust? Some characters are friendly and some are out to get you. Who will you befriend? Who will you betray?
HIGHLY REPLAYABLE
* Every run is different, with new leads and new opportunities for mayhem.
* Avoiding expulsion is just the start. Can you rise to the position of Head Girl?
* Mysteries abound. Why is the cellar locked? What is your best friend's dark secret?
One play-through lasts about 30 - 45 minutes, but achieving that perfect run will take a lot longer...
SOMEONE HAS TO TAKE THE FALL
What's New in Version 1.1.7
Minor disturbances in the school’s delicate social ecosystem have been corrected. Order (and mischief) may now proceed uninterrupted.

Update for ios?
I see that the game got an updste and new endings on May 1 on Steam but there’s no information about when this update will come to iOS. I wish I had known that buying on steam grants new and quicker updates, I feel like I didn’t experience the ending because I chose the wrong platform :( I’ll update my review once the update gets released on ios because overall the game is amazing.

Bug: certain textures won't load
I haven't played very much yet, but I almost immediately noticed a bug in the school background where multiple facets which were completely black and had odd pixelly edges that clearly weren't intentional.
I like the first game, and that ran fine on my hardware (I have an old model) so hopefully the issue gets fixed.

Truly enjoyable!
Loved every minute of it, ended up going through it twice.

Incredible Potential, but Ultimately Glitchy
I loved every minute of this game. It is filled with mystery and chaos and even once you have finished it and the credits roll, you should play again because I promise there’s more to discover. With that said, it’s got a lot of glitches and lapses in logic within the gameplay. My best example is that you are able to tell one of the teachers about an injury another student has endured that she already knows about and she will run to the nurse as though she’s hearing about it for the first time.

An amazing follow up
Expelled! Is an amazing follow up to overboard from inkle. While there are a few bugs here and there I believe that Expelled! Has proven to be a great installment in the overboard franchise and is full of great twists and turns. And that Belgium girl, that very very untrustworthy Belgium girl.

Mysteries on top of mysteries
When you find a strategy to escape blame and perfectly execute your plan make it through the term, it’s so satisfying. But it’s also just the start!
There are so many secrets and hidden facets of the game to be discovered; going about my day I couldn’t stop thinking of loose ends I could pull and things I could do the next time I played.
There are so many ways to play Verity, and your choices really matter! Not just because they affect the way each run goes, but because they change who your Verity actually is, what she wants, and what she’s willing to do.
The way all your choices and rewinds are contextualized in the narrative is brilliant, and the structure of the game keeps prodding you to try different things and discover new interactions.
It takes all the complexity of Overboard! and makes it look like a prototype. I’ve never played anything like Expelled!

Unplayable
I was really looking forward to this because I loved Overboard, but this is unfortunately unplayable and now I’m out 5.99. It quits and I literally cannot play it. Might be a good game if I could play it but it’s totally broken.

Good if you liked Overboard
I bought this on the strength of 80 Days (probably my favorite iPhone game). But personally, I find it dull and repetitive. Very quickly the game becomes just guess-and-check, repeating the same steps but seeing what happens if you change one thing.
If you liked Overboard, you’ll love this. Personally, I did not, and hope they’ll do another 80 Days soon.

Update dropped my save
Just started playing, part way in, app updated and I’m back to the beginning. Not acceptable! Maybe there are save points, but if I’m losing my place at every app update, I’m dropping it

AMAZING!!
This is soo fun and like a mystery! It’s actually challenging and entertaining. I just can’t figure out how to frame Fifi yet😭
