This game had so much potential but did
not make it big in the market. Then again, who was really out playing games in the mid 90's? Obviously, some of us were. This short lived game is a must have for any of you who love mystery movies as well as sci-fi shows or movies, such as Star Wars or Star Trek. You'll really appreciate this game if you love Star Trek, and have some interest in the Titanic disaster. The game gives you a feeling exploring the corridors of this supposedly abandoned vessel, very much as you would if one was exploring the remains of Titanic. Throughout the game, one will be faced with the challenge of solving riddles, left behind by one of the surviving passengers in order to progress in the storyline. This game is not for the average Joe. I must admit, the solutions of these puzzles took me hours upon hours in order to solve them.
The controls of this game are pretty simple. In a basic point it is a click kind of game. There is some option to dialogue and some parts, where you have to type answers in. It takes a couple of clicks to get the hang of the game controls. Nothing too hard.
In conclusion, this game is a decent play if you have a couple hours to spare. Don't get discouraged if you can't get some of the riddles or puzzles on your first fifty tries, you will get it eventually. The key to this game is to over analyze any small detail that doesn't seem important or relevant.
My opinion? Give the game a try. Patients is a virtue. Attention to detail is keen. Enjoy!
