| Amazon.co.uk ReviewAfter 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
