As a British secret agent in 1912, your assignment was to recover a stolen book. Simple enough. But, as fate would have it, your mission put you on board the R. M. S. Titanic on her fateful maiden voyage. As an eyewitness to history on the night of April 14, 1912, you were one of the lucky survivors of the catastrophic series of events that would forever lodge Titanic securely in the annals of 20th century lore.
It's now 1942 and war is raging throughout the world. Although you survived the ordeal of 30 years past, it effectively ended your career as a secret agent. Riddled with guilt, knowing that successful completion of that mission could very well have changed the fate of the world forever and prevented mankind's bloody 20th century of war, you've dreamed of a chance to go back and finish what you left uncompleted three decades earlier.
Now, through a bizarre accident, you've been slammed back in time to that very night in 1912. Miraculously, you've been given another chance to re-write history -- a second opportunity to change events and actually prevent World War I, the Russian Revolution and, possibly, even World War II. Determined to succeed this time, you grasp the chance and begin an investigation on board Titanic in an effort to eliminate your failure of long ago.
Titanic: Adventure Out of Time is more than a single gaming experience. The designers give you the opportunity to join in the festivities by taking the part of Carlson in his attempt to change history or, if sleuthing isn't your thing, simply enjoy a tour of the great ship. The latter activity is an interactive foray where the actors and actresses of the cast act as tour guides for various areas of the Titanic.
Gameplay is from a first person perspective and your character moves from screen to screen much in the same way as other adventures of this type such as Myst. The interface is quite easy with movement accomplished via three keys (forward, left or right) while interaction with objects is done with the mouse. The environment in which you explore is a 3D, historically accurate digital reconstruction of Titanic with photo-realistic graphics. You'll meet and talk with more than 25 characters during the mystery adventure, each with a purpose as well as "memory circuits" that enable them to interact in a meaningful way as the adventure progresses. An interactive inventory, full ship-mapping of all eight decks and an in-depth mystery all await your arrival.
Bon voyage!

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
