About the Game
==============
Every Second Counts. History Is Inevitable.
April 14, 1912. The final night of the RMS Titanic.
You are a private investigator aboard the world’s most famous ocean liner. What begins as a routine voyage soon becomes something far darker: a suspicious death, hidden clues, locked rooms, restricted decks, and a mystery buried deep within the ship.
Explore the Titanic before disaster strikes. Question passengers, search cabins, uncover secrets, and follow a trail that leads from the elegance of First Class to the shadowed lower decks below. But as the truth begins to surface, so does the danger.
And then the iceberg hits.
What was once an investigation becomes a desperate fight for survival as freezing water floods the ship, corridors tilt, lights fail, and panic spreads across the decks. Every choice matters. Every second counts.
The ship will sink.
What you discover — and who you save — is up to you.
**KEY FEATURES:**

- Boredom (weight 0.04): Boredom was caused by slow and boring wandering with unclear purpose, uninteresting storylines, and tedious objectives. The long introduction before reaching the ship also contributed to the feeling. This made the gameplay feel monotonous and unrewarding.
- Amusement (weight 0.04): Amusement came from the game being a 'fun bad' experience that was laughable, with robotic voice acting lines like 'ahh, my eyes!' providing humor.
