Press reviews: “Fast paced, fabulous looking and full of opportunities to wreak havoc, Overboard!’s endlessly entertaining choice-driven story of murder and deceit aboard a 1930s ship will have you falling hook, line and sinker.” 5/5 – Adventure Gamers “Overboard! conjures something that feels expansive and alive, something reassuringly familiar but also strange and surprising... A quite scintillating success.” 5/5 – The Guardian “Takes the fun trappings of mysteries and whodunnit puzzles but turns the genre on its head... Overboard! is the kind of game that’s impossible to put down once you start it.” Kotaku
