Douglas Adams Starship Titanic

If you started playing computer games in the early to mid nineties (e.g. Myst, Zork Nemesis) and think that most contemporary games are too violent, too "real", and too technical, then you're going to love this! No idea why I never played this back in the day, but it's awesome! A nice, puzzle-solving, dialog-driven, humorous (one of the voices is John Cleese!), not too linear game where you walk around inside a giant spaceship and figure stuff out at your own pace. It runs fine on Windows XP 32bit, but you might need to download the Cinepak codec to make some of the videos work.

Nowhere in the description does it tell you that it won't run on any program newer than Windows 98. I built a gaming computer that would have cost over $3K if you could buy anything close to it in a retail environment so I know it isn't my machine. VERY disappointed as I am a very big Douglas Adams fan.

It won't run on the new operating systems, so if you ever had the chance to play it, just keep the money and the memories.

This is a very interesting game. It has a very neat art style and plays a lot like Myst. The main difference being the insane logic in this game. You will need to be in a "Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy" mindset to get anywhere in this game. The crazy events, and wacky humor in this game make it extremely entertaining. I would recommend this to any Douglas Adams fan. if you do get it, prepare to think WAY outside the box .( or find a walkthrough online...)
