World Village (Gamer's Zone)
Playing Titanic is fun for a number of reasons. Based on 1912 materials and technology such as electricity and steam engines, Titanic's game puzzles integrate logically with the storyline. You get to defuse bombs, send and receive Morse Code on a functioning wireless telegraph, regulate the Titanic's massive engines, and interact with onboard characters who may lie or tell the truth. The game's twisting plots are both a challenge to solve and entertaining to play. Without a doubt, Titanic fully demonstrates all magic we've come to expect from CyberFlix. In short, Titanic: Adventure Out of Time is a showstopper -- dazzling, extraordinary edutainment at its very best.

I found Titanic to be a thoroughly enjoyable and and thought-provoking game. I would recommend it to anyone who is fascinated by the Titanic or into mystery solving. Intrigue abounds here, and just when you think you know what to do next, something else pops up. I give Titanic: Adventure Out of Time a score of 93 -- subtracting a few points for frequent disc switching and the sometimes strange character animations.

Just Adventure
Titanic: Adventure Out of Time is a very interesting game. It combines historically accurate background with a completely fantastic story of time travel and changing history (personally I have a suspicion that changing history might not be so simple as this game makes it sound). Sort of a really grand what-if adventure. The reconstruction of R.M.S. Titanic is quite amazing and greatly adds to the atmosphere of Titanic. Fans of espionage and history should especially like this game.

Quandary
For anyone interested in the Titanic disaster I'm sure this game is a 'must play'. And if you don't know much about it then why not take the cruise anyway? You'll learn some interesting facts about this magnificent ship and you can even learn to distinguish between the pointy and the blunt ends along the way. It's good fun (for want of a better word) so try your luck and see if you can halt Hitler in his tracks and maybe prevent World War II or perhaps even stop the Russian Revolution. What a shame the designers missed a golden opportunity to allow for a genderless character in this adventure instead of stamping the main protagonist as male. It would have been so easy, and then all game players could have shared equally in the fun of stepping into the shoes of the character.

Titanic er meget flot og historisk korrekt lavet - noget der vil få mange (inklusiv bedstefar) til at spærre øjnene op og synke hen i nostalgi. En flot hyldest til en af menneskets største visioner. Bon voyage!

Engrossing subplots, fascinating exploration of the ship, some overly simple puzzles but all in all First class entertainment.

Game Revolution
Aside from the weak plot and cast of silly characters, this title deserves a look at. As a game it offers very, very little, however, as a historical reproduction of the most legendary cruise ship that sank in the seven seas, this a triumph. This game appeals to a highly limited audience, and is primarily recommended to ye Titanic aficionados who want a great historic walk through the annals of ship and legend. To these people the 'game' will be a bonus.

GameSpot
Is Titanic a good game? Yes and no. Yes, there is an interesting story, a visually sumptuous and often thrilling re-creation of the ship, and much to do and see. But a disproportionate amount of time is taken up watching twitchy talking heads natter endlessly. How much you enjoy it will depend on how much you like interactive dialog. I was willing to go along with CyberFlix on this journey because they had a worthwhile tale to tell, but it certainly tried my patience at times.

Bei der einschläfernden Atmospähre ist es kein Wunder, daß die Titanic auf einen Eisberg gelaufen ist. Dasbei ist das Spiel eigentlich gar nicht schlecht, es zieht sich nur furchtbar in die Länge. Das ist umso bedauerlicher, weil die ganze Aufmachung eigentlich sehr stimmungsvoll ist. Bis ins kleinste Detail wurde auf Authentizität geachtet: Das Flugticket für einen Zeppelin ist in Deutsch, die Missionsbeschreibung wird Ihnen per Grammophon übermittelt.

PC Action
Erkunden Sie das Schiff, sprechen Sie ausgiebig mit den Passagieren, und sammeln Sie Hinweise über den Verbleib des Buchs, um der Geschichte eine glückliche Wendung zu geben. Die Dialoglastigkeit, hölzern animierte Charaktere und eine hingeschluderte Lokalisierung trüben den Spielspaß. Falls Sie The Last Express mochten, könnte Titanic dennoch etwas für Sie sein.
