The WORST Big Fish Game Ever!
This is a terrible game. I'm surprised that Big Fish has even presented such a game on their website.
The graphics are clear, but rather odd (you have the game screen which has a border around it).
But the most awful thing about this games is that it seems like it's just HOS.
I'm not kidding.
The game opens up, and you are immediately in a HOS. As soon as you complete it, you are immediately in a second HOS. Complete the second HOS, and you are immediately in a third one. I actually gave up on the game at that point, and uninstalled it forever and ever.
PLEASE. Do yourself a favor and try, try, try this game before you even think of buying it. It's not even worth a sale price.

Another titanic flop
It's a HOG and not much more than that with one HOS following another. Too many of them, and they are all equally bad, all of them junk piles filled up with tiny thinggies. Just click at random and you're done.
I quit after the third HOS, not even wanting to see what the announced minigames were like. I am not a HOG fan and this game won't turn me into one.
Graphics are sort of clear on the whole but look nothing like the interior of the Titanic. No real storyline, no adventure whatsoever, awful music, awful intro.
A total waste of time that I would not recommend even to a beginner.

secrets
I had a bad feeling about this when i saw another Titanic title, but decided to give it a go.
There is an annoying screen in a screen type a small box with a larger one with the ship on behind, and the characters are very cartoony, graphics are colorful.
The hogs are junk pile and after having three in a row in the first five minutes I gave up!
I think the kids will love this one, and I think anyone new to hogs.

THAR SHE BLOWWWWS
If you are very new to HOGs or you are 12, this game just may appeal to you. As for the rest, sorry, this ship will probably set sail without you. A straight HOG, through and through. Graphics are good, artwork pathetic and music even more pathetic. Two game modes: Casual or Timed. Mini-games, few and too easy. Lots and LOts and again Lots of HO scenes that only junkies will appreciate. The developers really cut corners on this one, had they added features like achievements, awards and some better games, kids might have actually enjoyed this. This game is old, and I wish I could call it a classic but I have played better HOGs in my days. I guess they really had to work hard to dig this one up from the archives and from there, it will go straight to the bin. Sorry, this ship goes down without me.

Don't bother
Unfortunately a waste of time. It starts with 3 HOS and then a slider...so unchallenging and boring that I nearly fell asleep after these first 10mn. It might be pleasing for very young players but I am more than 6 years old and will remove it from my downloads.

Very Disappointed!
So lets start at the top; if going from one HOS to another with annoying piano music that plays over and over fun, go for it. I like games with a story between HOS's and a different challenges along the way. The fact that Big Fish put this game out there is disappointing.

Could barely play it
I think the Titanic theme has been well and truly overused.
Whilst the game catered for widescreen, it was actually only a square playing area with panels at the side.
The words of the hidden object list were in white with a yellow backing making it impossible to see.
I wasn't prepared to give myself a headache trying to play, and deleted it instead.

Small children only with keen eyesight
What a waste of a game and all that programming input!
It has a small none adjustable screen with a border of the Titanic ship.
HOS - one after the other with a minimal story line.
The best way to play this game is to just click every part of the picture and watch the objects tumble! Preferably use a magnify glass on the screen.
No finesse, no challenge
Useless for me and I quit after composing this review!

Great for HO beginners
I only played the trial demo of this game, its basically a HO game all round. There is a storyline - a family go back on the Titanic on its 100 year anniversary as your mother survived the original 1912 sinking of the titanic.
You start having flashbacks going from 2012 to 1912.
The whole game is HO which is good but not for me - i like a little more interaction and running back and forth!
A definate for people who are just starting out on HO games :)

Anouther titanic game, when will they learn?
As soon as I saw it was anouther Titanic game, I just got this sinking feeling ( terrible pun intended). I havn't seen one that has been any good. This one is no better.
I did like the sort of history thing, except for getting a few facts wrong it was okay, sort of. Worked Titanic: movie on tour. They had a lot of interesting facts.
Anywho, I'm saving my money, not buying this game.
