About Overboard!
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?
***** 5 stars from The Guardian, Adventure Gamers, Softpedia
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...

User reviews
Very fun. Highly detaild story. Love this game creator.
Soooo addicting! Soooo much fun! Loved everything about it!
Lots of fun, there are ways to speed through the replays to make them less repetitive. That said, I gave up without completing the best ending, or even getting very close. I intend to go back to it some day.
Another inkle game = instant buy for me. If you love one inkle game - 80 days or Sorcery, you'd certainly love another of theirs.
This game is absolutely amazing. One of the best mobile games I've ever played, large variety of options and great characters.
I already know this game is going to be a blast 😁
