Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
After the romantic slush and historical inaccuracies of the Hollywood film Titanic comes a CD ROM of what its makers describe as "intrigue and adventure ... on board the Titanic". They claim that the ship is "so perfectly reproduced" that historians used it as reference for a scientific expedition at the wreck site. What the blurb doesn't tell you is that the game Titanic, Adventure Out of Time is also something of an enigma.
With precious few instructions on how to actually begin the game, the only instant option is a tour of the ship. Touring the silent decks and vast, empty rooms can feel quite eerie. The opportunity to go on a really thorough tour--snoop into cabins or check out the gymnasium--seems to be out of bounds, so speeding up and down the grand staircase and on to the poop deck is the next best thing. Occasionally characters loom up out of the silence, looking more like museum mannequins than convincing passengers, to feed information and build up the plot.
To play the game itself, take a big tip and follow these instructions from the technical support man, who saves the day on the end of the phone: the scene is set in a London bed-sit during World War II, and there is only one way for an ageing ex-British secret agent to get back to the Titanic of 1912-and start having some fun. If you can solve a number of puzzles while on board, you are allowed off the ship to find yourself all the way back in London again... -- Susannah Steel

This is just the best game ever - you will not be disappointed. Fabulous scenery of the Titanic, great characters to talk to and meet. Thoroughly entertaining and can be played over and over again. Have a save option so you can return to where you'd finished before. Save as you go so if your computer crashes you won't lose any stored information. Warning - you will get hooked because you want to get to the next clue, or solve it, or speak to the next person. Just a tip - sometimes the puzzles take a while to solve but try not to cheat and go on the internet to find hints and cheats (which you can). I can't rate this game high enough for playability because it's so fascinating, so brilliant, so enjoyable - my rating for this is a TITANIC 5*!!!!!

First rate game with ingenious graphics, although the attempt at a British accent by some of the characters was way off target. However, this did not detract from my enjoyment of the game, which, by the way, took me three weeks to complete, a bit of along time by all accounts, still, it was most engaging.

I have had this game for 5 years and continue to love dipping (!) in and out of it, even though I normally don't like computer games. I have completed it a couple of times, but it always seems to go a little differently every time you do it. The scenery is pretty good and the characters are convincing. I love the way that it connects to our lives today as well as showing what it was like back then. People with a decent level of understanding of modern world history (i.e. WWI, Russian Revolution, WWI, etc.) will find this fascinating as completing the mission successfully will deprive the Serbian Black Hand movement of the money they need to buy weapons to shoot Arch Duke Ferdinand, whilst the retrieval of a certain painting will make Adolf Hitler into a famous artist, insted of the tyrant he really was, and a notebook will provide the Czar with the information they need to prevent the Russian Revolution. A truly well-written story, almost like participating in your own film! Will it be a happy ending for the world? Only you can find out! Buy it!!
