Dinsun Review
I'm not sure who thought the sinking of the Titanic was the right setting for a low-budget physics puzzle, but the result is as clunky as the ship's rudder. The physics are floaty and unpredictable, making the 'rescue' part of the game more of a chore than a challenge. You spend most of your time fighting the controls rather than solving actual puzzles.
The visuals are barely above what I’d expect from a Flash game in 2005. There’s no weight to the movement, no tension in the atmosphere, and the sound design is practically non-existent. It feels like a project put together over a weekend. It fails to respect the source material and, more importantly, it fails to be an engaging game. This belongs at the bottom of the Atlantic along with the actual wreck.
