JULY, 1935. A MURDER HAS BEEN COMMITTED aboard the SS Hook, eight hours out from New York.
Only one problem: you did it.
Can you get away with murder?
GAMEPLAY
Blackmail a spy. Fall in love. Murder a rival. Cheat at cards. Drug a witness. Lie, befriend, betray, console, sneak, seduce, steal, borrow, pray, eavesdrop, kill...
There are clues, evidence, suspects, accusations, secrets and lies.
You’ll need all your cunning, coercion and charisma to ensure that someone else takes the fall.
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, remember everything they see and hear - and everything you do
* Every minute counts: you have eight hours to escape justice. Time 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?
Built using the award-winning ink narrative engine, Overboard!'s narrative twists itself around every choice you make.
Play once for a thrill, or multiple times to uncover all the secrets and achieve an ideal ending.
HIGHLY REPLAYABLE
One play-through lasts about 30 - 45 minutes, but achieving the perfect crime run will take a lot longer...

Ratings and Reviews
Good
I really like this, especially the rewind aspects and highlighting your previous choices - I took off a star because there’s no option to turn off sound completely, I use my iPad for white noise for my child and would like to play at the same time but can’t as the sound effects are still going, even with the music turned off in options
Surprisingly brilliant
I personally need little persuading with Inkle’s interactive fiction apps (read 80 Days) but my fairly young son, who usually is indifferent to the printed page, got something of a buzz out of this dastardly dash too! Theme probably too much for younger children, though. As a big kid I can, however, only wait and hope Inkle will be back with more of these apps (I prefer iOS myself for this sort of thing) as they are terrific.
Excellent
Great little game with strong branching decision making and piecing together the full picture through multiple play throughs is very fun. The complete elimination ending is pretty special too. Definitely worth a purchase!
