Titanic: Adventure Out of Time

Great voice animations, wish the movement was a little better.

I have been wanting this since I set up my account years ago. I have never purchased anything faster in my life. Thank you to the team for making this part of my childhood more than just a memory trapped inside a dusty box on my shelf.

Black screens and glitches

I've never won this game. Is there a solution or a way to figure it out? Can't get doors to open. Some responses seem incorrect.

It's not without its flaws, but overall I thought this was a great game. Very similar to The Last Express, though it doesn't quite reach the same level of quality. Main strength is the detailed and historically accurate recreation of the Titanic; even if the game itself doesn't grab you, you'll still have fun exploring the ship. Also, even if this game doesn't look nearly as pretty 30 years later, I unironically enjoyed the story to this a lot more than the James Cameron film. You play as a British spy attempting to recover stolen art, thwart a German plot and prevent the world wars. There are also side-stories and optional tasks that add depth to the game. The characters are an interesting cross section of the different social strata of the time period, and there is quite a bit of historical and political trivia thrown in as well. Topless Kate Winslet notwithstanding, this game has far more going for it than the movie imo. As I said, though, it also has its flaws. The character animation is ugly even by the standards of the time period, though I suspect this was a necessary (and wise) sacrifice to allow more disk space for the huge environment. It also has a few of the standard problems that emulated older games often have: clippy audio, periodic crashes, etc. As far as gameplay goes, it's... a 90s adventure game, that's all I can say. Frustrating, illogical puzzles, unclear tasks, the obligatory "maze" area, fight sequences that are more of a struggle against the weird janky controls than against the character you're fighting... it's all here. However, balanced against all that is a complex, branching adventure narrative that offers considerable replay value. Though you may end up beating the game on your first try, you'll need multiple playthroughs to see everything. All in all, this game is well executed. Highly recommend for anyone who likes historical drama, adventure games, spy thrillers, or who is interested in the Titanic mystique.
