Overboard!
iOS, (Inkle Studios)
In 1935, you've just killed your spouse by gently throwing him over the rail of the promenade deck while aboard a steamship that is about to dock in New York. In this intriguing reverse whodunnit from the creators of 80 Days, your goal is to escape punishment.
In your utterly unheroic quest for independence in the New World, weaselly language, fabricating evidence, taking the chapel's offering plate for orphans, and killing anyone who suspects you are all fair game.
Playthroughs last approximately 30 minutes, but you have to try several times before you succeed since you get caught up in your own hilariously complex web of betrayal and murder.
WINNER of a Apple Design Award and a Writer's Guild Award!
JULY, 1935. A MURDER HAS BEEN COMMITTED aboard the SS Hook, eight hours out from New York.
