MarkoH01: Thank you - meanwhile I was told the same. However keep in mind that only the dialogues will be subtitled, no off voices or cutscenes.

Pajama: OK, thanks. I succumbed to temptation and bought the game yesterday. Am just about to fire it up properly and dive in (pun not intended!) so hopefully the cut scenes, etc. won't be too mumbled for me to wish they'd put subtitles on everything :)

MarkoH01: Actually the speech is really good understandable even for me as a German who only learned school English.
(This does not mean that I now don't want the German version anymore which was offered here ;))

Fairfox: But whhhy? Imma not disbelieve, but at teh mo it seems becaaause nOSTALGIA. What do you liek? Might buy even tho it's about a long-dead boat.

seinmind: Thank you GOG/Night Dive Studios for releasing this game and for a fair price. This was a challenging adventure game, but the appeal for me was more in the exploration of the actual Titanic ship (it did not sink in real time). We take for granted now that there are likely dozens of ways to explore Titanic. The chance to stroll around on the outside decks, scale the grand staircase and run down the first class corridors was a feeling to behold in 1996. The 1997 film, which came out a year after this game also helped satisfy those wanting to experience the look of Titanic beyond just the historic black and white photographs and then later murky under water footage of its final resting place.

The graphics were stellar and photo-realistic for its time and even hold up well today. I even thought I read a number of TV productions licensed the footage to use in their documentaries. The puzzles were a challenge and like with Myst, I gave up far too quickly to seek out an online FAQ/Walkthrough just so I could experience the full game, regardless if I succumbed to cheating.

The striking visuals were complimented with a terrific soundtrack by Erik Holt and Scott Scheinbaum (and Danny Elfman if you count that innocent nod to Batman) provided a music soundscape that that felt both beautiful and ominous. The limitations of the game engine, along with likely a design choice meant that despite 2,300 people on board, Titanic Adventure Out of TIme, feels sparse and empty with interactive and npc's sprinkled throughout.

It worked at the time and it will be fun to play this again. The memories from the days of reading the walkthrough have likely been forgotten, so experiencing Adventure Out of Time with fresh eyes will be a new challenge. Thank you to all who brought this forgotten gem back.

tinyE: They got to the radio quick enough IRL. The nearest ship ignored them.

tinyE: I don't think I can take one more person talking about how they played this as a kid. :P
