Unique Comedic British Sci Fi Puzzler
Wonderful little point and click with a dialog based puzzle system. Basically like myst with a bunch of chat bots to help you out - There's no other game like this - Great for any fan of science fiction, puzzle games and of course Douglas Adams' style of dry British wit.

Ahead of it's time. Probably too ahead
This is a game that I really enjoyed overall, but it has a few flaws. I've been a big fan of Douglas Adams and his "Hitchhiker's Guide" series. The ship is beautiful for the graphics available at the time, the malfunctioning robots are funny, and the idea of really talking to the NPCs was intriguing. Unfortunately, they almost never understand anything you say. This game could have greatly benefited from being overhauled now when we have AI's that could actually do what this game was attempting. I played Starship Titanic when I was a kid, when it came out, but ended up giving up, because the NPCs never understood me, and the game was buggy. I got it on GOG and was able to take a second attempt at it with the internet to help me get through the bugs. Some of the puzzles were extremely difficult, and I think that is because the NPCs couldn't really communicate well enough to give you any clues at all. Finally, the "Myst" like way of moving around in games of this time is really hard for me to go back to. After a while, just moving around began to feel like a chore. In many ways, this game just came out too early. If Adams were still with us, then I would highly recommend a redo. Pros: Funny, good aesthetic design, fun puzzles, fun characters, fun atmosphere, with an interesting concept Cons: Buggy, some puzzles were extremely difficult, movement gets laborious, and the main gimmick of the game, the NPCs ability to communicate, was undercooked.

With reservation... Yes.
Ostensibly a Myst clone created by Douglas Adams in the 90’s, Starship Titanic brought something previously unseen to the proverbial table. Fully voiced characters with whom you interact by chatting with them. Literally. It's just debatable whether it worked or not. From the surfer dude BellBot to the domineering DeskBot they’ll all answer with fully voiced dialogue. And brief moments you’ll even manage snippets of impressively natural conversations. The key word being snippets. This is 90’s technology after all. A lot of the time will be spent rephrasing your question for the millionth time whilst they’ll humorously feign ignorance, mechanical failure, or downright disinterest. It’s therefore exceedingly difficult to pick out what is a clue and what is merely babble. That some puzzles have been designed during what I can only assume was an Ayahuasca induced trip doesn’t help matters, so you’re well within your rights to smash your keyboard in frustration at times. With that said. Does Starship Titanic warrant a playthrough? I’d say yes, if for no other reason than to sample something unique. But instead of bringing a towel I’d suggest a strategy guide and some wine. It’s a beautiful world to be in. The vast halls of the ship comes alive with Tannoy messages and calming music, and Douglas Adam’s brand of humor oozes from every pore. These days I boot the game up just to soak in the atmosphere and annoy the bots. And should you want to marinate further in Starship Titanic content I can suggest a trip down Internet Archive to look at www.starshiptitanic.com for the original website, and especially the Starlight Travel agency sub-site. I also found the tie-in novel by Terry Jones to be a worthwhile addition.
