Graphics were okay, other than a few blurry and washed out HOGs. Music nice, storyline nice, HOGs messy and games extremely simple. Game play is a bit slow and choppy.
This could have been a very nice game without much help. At least do a spell check and have someone look over the grammar. Use proper wording, e.g. a valve is not a handwheel.
This game is a nice one for a beginner, but not for a seasoned gamer. I personally did not care for it, but others will.
I recommend this game!

Not a bad game, very short demo. I have the first VM game and really liked it. This one is interesting and I do love a good mystery. Nice graphics, music okay, game play a bit choppy. I much prefer an actual "hint" button for a little help when needed and this one doesn't have one. Yes, you can look at the map to see where you need to go, but that really isn't a hint as to what to do next (good thing there is a WT). HOGs fairly simple, as were the games. Odd that the voice-overs are only one sided, but voices very well done and appropriate for the setting.
As I said, I do love a good mystery, so I will use a credit and get this one too. Thanks for the reviews.
I recommend this game!
Hidden Mysteries: Return to Titanic
After using a secret alias to board the Titanic, things go terribly wrong and you find yourself trapped among the wreckage. In order to earn freedom from your watery tomb you must appease your captor by re-writing history and freeing the spirits trapped aboard the 'unsinkable' luxury liner as well as discover why fate has chosen this destiny for you.

I like the Hidden Mysteries games and have many of them already. This one is not as challenging, but has nice graphics, nice sound. A little different story line than most, so it was interesting.
Don't care for this type of hint system. When I ask for a hint, give me one. Don't tell me there is nothing to do, I already know that, that's why I need a hint.
I got through the second ghost before my demo ran out, but looks like I have a couple more hours of play. I liked this one enough to use a game credit. Thanks for the reviews!
I recommend this game!
