Expelled! - ★★★★☆
In inkle’s Expelled!, you play boarding school student Verity Amersham, the prime suspect of the defenestration of another pupil. It’s impossible – you were fast asleep when it happened – but clearly someone is out to frame you, as all the evidence is pointing your way. Can you find a way to prove your innocence before you suffer the game’s eponymous fate?
The Roottrees are Dead - ★★★★✮
In The Roottrees are Dead, the Roottrees are Dead. Namely, the President of the Roottree Corporation, his wife, and their three daughters. You’re tasked with identifying all the remaining blood relatives of the Roottree family, ostensibly to sort out the inheritance issues that might arise with the family’s untimely demise.
It’s often compared to Return of the Obra Dinn - which is likely IndieLoupe’s only five-star game... can it live up to that hype?
