Starship Titanic is a 1998 point-and-click adventure game written and designed by Douglas Adams (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), developed by The Digital Village, and published by Simon & Schuster Interactive. Set aboard an intergalactic cruise ship, the game opens with the ship crashing into your house, and before you know it, it turns out someone has lobotomised the main computer, the ship is adrift in space and it's up to you to fix things.There is still a functional website that can be found here. There is also a novelization of the game by Pythonite Terry Jones, who claims to only having agreed to Adams' proposal to write said book if he could write it in the nude. Which he supposedly did. In 2017, the game's engine was completely overhauled as part of the ScummVM project for modern computer compatibility.Not to be confused with two other starships named Titanic. | |

The Call Knows Where You Live | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_12628662 | comment |
The Call Knows Where You Live: After the titular ship reduces your house to rubble, what choice do you have but to to answer Fentible's Call to Adventure? In fact, if you type "no" (or indeed anything besides "yes"), the only acknowledgment your refusal gets is "An odd way to spell it, but I that will do fine." | |

Creator Cameo: Turn on your television at the beginning, and Douglas Adams himself will appear on the screen and tell you to get on with the game. He also voices the Succ-U-Bus, the ship's artificially intelligent pneumatic-tube system. And plays Leovinus, the Titanic's designer, in a recording near the end of the game. | |

The maintenance reports range from routine inspections and inter-company bickering all the way through to funny. | |

In Case of X, Break Glass: The SGT Lounge has a long stick behind the glass, and the hammer to break the glass is elsewhere. The long stick is to grab a lemon from the Promenade Deck's multi-season room. You need the parrot's perch, which isn't long enough to reach the lemon, in order to push the button on the case within which the hammer is ensconced. Only then can you obtain the Long Stick. It's that kind of a game. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: The game spanned multiple CD-ROMs. Some batches went out with the final disc in the set missing. Okay, not technically a bug, per se, but certainly game-breaking. This is due to there being an actual game-breaking bug on the final disk in the first printing that was missing a file that had the game's interface with their Personal Electronic Thing which is necessary to do anything with your inventory or even save/quit the game! | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable: The ship's bilge, for collecting unaddressed Succ-U-Bus packages, doesn't work until you unblock it by making it sneeze; you can still send items there, but they'll just pile up until you fix it. Fortunately, the item you need to do that can't be sent through the Succ-U-Bus system, because feathers make them sneeze. Unfortunately, you can send the whole parrot to the bilge before collecting a feather from it, leaving you unable to ever unblock the bilge and thus thoroughly stuck. | |

Starship Luxurious: Of course, since it's a cruise ship in space. Developer quotes in the strategy guide say they were intentionally trying to make the interior look like a hotel rather than a spaceship. You have to work your way up to First Class Passenger in order to solve the mystery, and your surroundings become increasingly luxurious as you advance through the game. | |

Stop Poking Me! | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_4cc57ad5 | comment |
Stop Poking Me!: Repeatedly clicking on the bomb after arming it will cause it to become increasingly annoyed, eventually screaming at the player that "NO! MEANS! NO!" before breaking down sobbing. You can annoy it even further by hitting the glass-shielded button with a hammer you pick up later. Also, prodding the Maitre d'Bot's "Achilles' buttock" results in this. | |

| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_508ef715 | comment |
The Bridge: Titania gives you access to this at the endgame, which consists of a single room with a wheel, an unusable laptop, and a navigation console with a 3D glasses helmet. The novel goes further with the bridge being nothing more than a giant entertainment center for the captain. | |

Nobody Poops: At least, nobody of the upper classes, anyway. There are toilets in the Super Galactic Traveller Class rooms (which double as clothes washers) but conspicuously absent throughout the rest of the ship, including in the Second and First Class rooms. Marsinta specifically calls this out when you upgrade to First Class, telling you that nowhere in First Class will you find any of 'those nasty lavatory things'. | |

The Key Is Behind the Lock: In order to obtain a hammer, you need to press a button with a long stick. However, in order to obtain a long stick behind glass, you must break the glass with a hammer. Fortunately, there's a parrot perch that you can use in place of the long stick. Unfortunately, the perch isn't quite long enough to get the lemon. You can, however, use it to get the hammer you'll need to break the glass and get the long stick. | |

Mad Libs Dialogue: Most of the dialogue in the game runs on a system called "SpookiTalk" which functions a little like this, looking for particular phrasing and grammar from the player, checking the bot in question's cellpoint settings, and spitting out an appropriate response.

Fake Arm Disarm: Leovinus and Scraliontis used two of the Maître D-bot's limbs to fight each other, and eventually smashed the whole thing apart when landing on it. This didn't affect the robot much, though, as he can still wiggle his components even when separated. You have to actually steal his arms, and get him to relax to let go of the things they're holding. | |

Loads and Loads of Loading: The game originally came on three CDs. CD 3 is generally only used for the opening and the ending of the game, but once you reach First Class, this starts happening a lot, as all of the First Class areas — including the Bar, which is a Second Class area — require a change over to CD 1. Fortunately, later releases included the option of installing all the game files to the hard drive, with no discs needed whatsoever. | |

Press X to Die: You come across a button that says "Press to Disarm Bomb" — which arms it. If you actually wait long enough for the entire countdown from 1000 to expire, the bomb gets cold feet about exploding and restarts the countdown. Oddly enough, even though the bomb will never blow up during gameplay, it will explode in the ending FMV if it happens to be armed. At least it got the parrot, too. | |

Translator Microbes: In various flavors. When Dan asks how Fentible can speak English, the latter explains that the ship actually rearranges the passengers' brainwaves so that everyone speaks Blerontin language while on board. Krage also hands out "Translatorspecs" so the humans can read the ship's signs. Planetside, "Translation Blister" patches are used instead. At the start of the book, these are banned during the launch ceremony, so the Gat of Blerontin can't understand what a group of Yassacan protesters are saying. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: The 2017 ScummVM version includes an option to skip the last puzzle, which would normally have required the 3D glasses that came packaged with the physical game. | |

In My Language, That Sounds Like... | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_d9723630 | comment |
In My Language, That Sounds Like...: When Lucy tells her name to The Journalist, he tells her that in his language her name is really funny, but refuses to tell her what it means. The moment he sees the bomb, he pushes the "Press to Arm" button... because in his language, the label said "Please press dog" and he was wondering what the dog had to do with it. | |

Insurance Fraud | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_df968cf | comment |
Insurance Fraud: Starship's investors Scraliontis and Brobostigon arranged the ship's disappearance and upcoming detonation to collect its insurance money, as its massive scale proved to be a financial failure. This is also hinted at in the game's emails. | |

Featureless Protagonist: We only have the Robots' assurance that we're even human. Nobby addressing you as 'Sir' may imply that you're male; then again, he just as often refers to you as "Sir, Madam or Thing". | |

Lower-Class Lout | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_f34a4c1e | comment |
Lower-Class Lout: Passengers in Super Galactic Traveller Class are treated this way. They have to find their own way to their room without assistance from the staff, each floor has two lobbies each with access to eighteen 'staterooms', which the passenger then has to assemble themselves, for way of entertainment each lobby has a single relaxation room in which there is a single chair which looks at a portrait, and each passenger gets a single chicken from the 'restaurant', which is basically just a chicken and sauce dispenser which ejects the chicken faster than it ever moved when it was alive. | |

His Name Really Is "Barkeep" | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_f66dfb4b | comment |
His Name Really Is "Barkeep": By an ancient law, Blerontinian journalists are deemed to only go by "The Journalists", in order to make sure that a "cult of personality" doesn't build around them. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
| Starship Titanic (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: One of the ingredients for the Titanic Titillator is Puree of Starling. You get it by sucking a flock of starlings into a giant ventilation fan. It's perfectly possible - and required - to put the Parrot into your inventory and send him through the Succ-U-Bus item delivery system. | |
