If you want to experience the sinking like one of the passengers did: -Play during the night -Get in a lifeboat and watch the sinking -Set computer brightness low enough just so that you can barely see the ship -Set lighting settings to gloomy -Set graphics to the highest setting Enjoy :) It will make you see why not all of the passengers reported the ship splitting in half
Yes, the darkness that the passengers were in made it hard to see the ship in the first place, but when the lights went out, the only source of light the passengers had, the world went pitch black. So hard to see anything.
I'm not trying to argue but wouldn't they have heard the split? Or maybe some of the first lifeboats rowed far enough that they didn't see/ hear much of what happened Again not trying to argue but just saying
@@TV-ly3dp Lightoller said that he heard the ship's boilers collapsing and exploding deep within the ship. However, unknown to Lightoller, that sound was actually the ship splitting in two. I'm sure some people heard it split but must have assumed it was something else like a boiler exploding.
Hi, as a person who plays games like this and actually makes models like these, I would say that this game is a massive stepping stone to actual simulations of actual maritime disasters. The only problem I see here is that this game is only able to be recreated on Roblox which as you may know is going through a lot of controversial updates in the last few months. But even with what these developers had, they used their advanced knowledge to recreate mostly what happened onboard that dreadful night. What a masterpiece this game is.
Sam, you're as much a legend as the Titanic herself, at this point! I love Titanic, my son loves Roblox, and we are going to have a great weekend! Thanks so much for this!
Suggestion: April 14th next year, this game, multiplayer, real-time sinking, get someone to make a server for maximum players, and play with subscribers and other Titanic scholars you happen to have on! 😁
Oh wow that's supremely impressive! I didn't know Roblox was capable of that sort of gameplay. Also I remember when AOL felt fast lol, and there could be VIDEOS people could send you, which really felt like the future! It was certainly leaps and bounds better than what we had before, and now I wouldn't want to go back and live in a time before the Internet again.
Have you heard of, or had an opportunity to play, a computer game from 1996 titled "Titanic: Adventure Out Of Time"? While it is a sort of "who done it/adventure game", it does allow a player to roam the Titanic while working through the plot scenarios. Legacy technology it may be but the graphics were, and are still, impressive.
This was one of my favorite games as a kid, I found it on steam and was so excited. I even managed to find the guide at a local thrift store about a month ago
Yep…..I was around for the DOS pre-windows stuff. The first computer games I played as a child were on a Commodore 64. My elementary school even had Apple IIe and II Plus models in the computer lab. Good old days. Great video! Love your content as always
I have a commodor 64 in the box right behind me in the closet. It doesnt work but it does power up. My tv screen does react to it but all i have is a black screen, not sure what the issue is.
@@HistoricTravels afraid I can’t be of too much help, but I think mine may have suffered a similar failure. I seem to recall the video stopped working at some point when my parents tossed it out. Wish it had been kept, but this was way back when I was in grammar school. Loved your Lusitania series BTW. Excellent work
I think the story Titanic Honor and Glory should go with is something like Assassin's Creed's gimmick where the player is hooked up to a machine that will allow them to channel characters during the sinking. This gameplay element allows to keep the accuracy of segregation among classes but can give the player full access to the ship. You can live through first class, third class and crew characters throughout the sinking and experience how events played out in certain areas. This element also gives moments of breaks in the story when the experimental technology fails on occasion. This is practically the only way to keep the realism of the Era.
@@nobodyknowsme3324 lol maybe I will. My idea has the main character and player into the body of someone looking after a younger sister that way the player can form a stronger bond with the story and really feel the danger of losing that sibling character while the ship is sinking. The thing is I don't know what engine they're using and what it's capable of. I was thinking of writing up a sample for the team along with a synopsis and offering my services. I would really want the characters interactions feel genuine and of the Era so it would take a lot of research. There are some pretty interesting things going on for the time period. Political unrest and new ventures being built.
They're not doing a storyline anymore since they couldn't get a developer or funding to make NPCs and program AI etc. It's a walking simulator only now but will include every room on the ship.
@bobby ray of the family smith well that's unfortunate. I mean, getting to explore the ship is great and all, but having a real immersive experience and interacting with characters on the ship is so appealing. That being said, I can't imagine how much time that would take or how demanding it would be. The game is already over 30 gb with only half the ship. I would love to see a full game though will a large cast of characters. Yesterday, I started looking up the first passenger of the ship's registry online. Anthony Abbying, I started picturing what his lifestyle would have been like. He was a blacksmith returning from a South African contract when he sought out passage on Titanic. He was the elder sibling of six, born in Cincinnati from German parents who migrated to the US, so I imagine he was familiar with caregiver responsibilities, especially since their father died when they were young. Sadly, he was one of the third class passengers who wouldn't escape the ship. So this is a bit interesting because in Cameron's movie he has Rose and Jack attend the party in third class. I haven't looked too much into it and wonder if that would have actually taken place. Now, it could have been more creative licenses purely to show a contrast between the mentality of 1st class and third. In reality, it might have been that even 3rd class passengers largely kept to their own groups instead of liberally mingling with many strangers. In which case that's something the movie misrepresents and it would be nice to give gamers a real sense of the people and period. Anyways these types of thoughts are what I was hoping to explore in the game. Lol.
Amazing. I just found this game on Roblox about 2 hours before you uploaded this video. I was incredibly blown away with it myself especially by the fact that it is free to play at the quality level it is at!
An eerie experience to say to least. In the non-real-time sinking, I attempted to lower as many lifeboats as I could on my own using a private server (no other players; just me). Unfortunately I only had enough time to launch 10 of the forward lifeboats, not including collapsibles A and B. By the time I was about to go over to boats in the stern section, water was already creeping up on A-Deck and I started hearing the band playing Nearer my God To Thee. That prompted me to run back toward the bow and lower the last forward boat (#5) before jumping in. Moments later, the water reached the boat deck and the rest was history (albeit an alternate and more tragic history). Sometime later, I'll attempt another playthrough using the real-time sinking under different player settings when I'll have 2 hours and 40 minutes to spare. Many thanks for this great find! Looking forward to when Honor & Glory is eventually finished!
As a teen the only real PC Titanic thing I had was Total Titanic: A Night to Remember. It had the film with audio commentary by Ken Marshall and Don Lynch and a bunch of interactive multimedia experiences that were common in the mid 90s. Still, having pictures of the Titanic that I could use for my wallpaper and screensaver was an amazing thing to have in 1997 or so.
I play this game all the time. I’m so glad you finally played it! I also recommend you play Britannic S.O.S. It was made on Maritime Interactive’s Old Group which doesn’t exist anymore, but the game is up. Barely anybody plays it but it’s really good. You should do Britannic S.O.S.
As a person who played this game and have a roblox account ever since 2019, id say this game gets a review of 10/10, it absolutely blew all other titanic sinking games ive ever played out of the water Thanks for introducing this game to us, Historic! Historic Travels, I luv ur vids, keep up the good work! :D
It's better than the other Titanic game where the chat is empty and everyone's account was made yesterday. Oh and also there ends up being atleast 50 captains.
I'd love to see the full Titanic, especially the engine room, and what kind of damage the water will do to the boilers, or to the not properly closed furnaces.
Come on Sam !! Don’t tell me you didn’t play Adventure Out of Time as a kid haha. I was hoping you would mention the game at least. It was the closet thing we have at the time to experience the sinking of Titanic, even if it was very restrictive due to it being a point and click adventure and the technology of the time. I love that game as a kid.
I play this game almost all the time, I even worked on it on the discord. I can say for certain its polly the best Titanic game if your looking for accuracy and good roleplay
hey sam , i have took a break from the channel for 6 months but im back , great to see that you have grown from 5 thousand subscribers to 77.6 thousand subscribers in 18 months . i want to give some recommendations for videos , i think you should do videos on KMS bismarck IJN yamato USS iowa and some of the british battleships like the hood .
I hade a wii titanic game that was SOOOOOO REALISTIC, you had exploding funnels, the ship still had lifeboats after the second funnel fell, the ‘elevators’ where fully electric, the grand staircase flooded slowly (the top deck), a person with secret passages in the titanic oh and you stop the ship moving with PING PONG BALLS.
I'm not much for games, but your description of the gave was very good, I'm surprised that you are not being used as a technical advisor with all your know. Thanks again.
There's a old game called Titanic: Adventure Out of Time. It came out in late 90s. I think like 97. It has a good fictional story about a man that goes back I time to the night the Titanic sank. It's recreation of the Titanic is one of the most accurate ever. It has actually been used as a visual animation for a few documentaries. I would love to play a more up to date game though.
How old are you Sam? I’m an Old at 43. I played Oregon Trail during Computer Class in lower school. It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come, AND amazing how quickly we casually adopt new technologies and can’t imagine life without it!
Your video sparked my interest in this game and since my stepdaughter has Roblox, we tried it out a few days ago. It was a lot of fun, despite somehow we didn't have such good graphics as you had, but it was still enjoyable. What really blew my mind is that of course she had to try to climb up the funnels and it is also possible in the game, first we tried the "fake" funnel, then the third funnel, which we could actually fall into.😃 The second time we did the sinking mode we tried to stay on the stern as long as we could and we almost made it, however, you can actually easily fall off the stern as she plunges if you just stand there, so that's a really cool detail too! And fun fact, you can jump off the ship in the exploration mode too (of course we did it) and still die from hypothermia, also get slammed by one of the propellers. Really cool and detailed game!😊
Very glad that you decided to play this game! I suggest you play Roblox Titanic when 3.0 releases, right now it isnt too good though as the developers abandoned 2.0 to work on 3.0. There is also Britannic SOS which I think you should check out, and there is also Titanic SOS Legacy which is an older build of the game.
Another Roblox game I would play in my downtime is called "Tiny Sailors World". It has a plethora of vessles to choose from and travel on, as well as various locations to sail to! The ships are beautifully modeled and I feel such joy whenever I hop on. 12 outta 10 recommended! Also, love your videos and thank you so much for doing what you do! Take care and I can't wait for what you put out next⚘️😁
Been playing these Titanic Role-play games since 2009, starting at VVG’s version, which isn’t as nice as it used to seem, but still cool to look back on. Great video
I thought with all the late 90s references, this was going to be a review of "Titanic: Adventure out of Time", which was fairly decent at the time if you just wanted to explore the ship. The actual game play though was pretty terrible, consisting of entirely made up characters trying to steal the Rubaiyat, a lifeboat pass, and a painting by Hitler (Yes, that one!) in order to prevent or fund WWI, depending on which side they were on. The sinking itself was only shown in cut-scenes (such was the limitation of technology at the time), but during the sinking phase of the game the ship does at least list forwards while you're walking around.
What I'd like, is a submersible model, with a cutaway view. I've honestly thought about making similar or custom ship internals, in which you could battle water as it sinks your model. as a little kid I was kinda obsessed with ships and sinking and such. not sure why, I know it's a grim subject.
Theres alot of Titanic games and ship games on roblox in general. You should check them out. I think a few games you would like would be Dynamic Ship Simulator Shipping Lanes Or Tiny Sailors World.
I grew up when PONG was our first computer game lol!! I have a question if the men at the bottom of the Titanic were keeping the lights on how did the lights stay on so long? Wouldn't that compartment be the first to flood? How could the lights stay on if they were under water?
Power generation was at the rear of the ship, which stayed dry through most of the sinking until the breakup. That’s why they had power for so long. They were lucky
Yes, I remember AOL and chatrooms and MSN! Crazy how technology has progressed. When I was a kid, the only way to learn about anything was through books. I had SO many Titanic books and I don't know where they are now sadly.
@@missscarling yes I guess you are right. We all had different experiences and some were not great at all. Im sorry you had to deal with people like that!!!
Another good Roblox game is RMS Titanic Sailing Simulation. It was made by ParticularParticle, and you can explore the ship when it wasn’t sinking, just like with Titanic SOS Exploration Mode. There are also sailing simulations for Olympic, Britannic, Lusitania, Mauretania, and Aquitania.
This Version of Titanic S.O.S was Awaited atleast for me and they are working on a V2 of the Model and there was a V1 A.K.A the Original Titanic Model for Titanic S.O.S. but It was more Smaller and Inaccurate and they Changed alot in V1.5 and well It Impressed me alot, Definitely a Great Titanic game for Roblox's Engine Limitations and It gets better if you put it on Max Graphics or Play Solo in a Private server but the Private servers I believe cost money but It's an Underrated Roblox Titanic game.
You should try playing Titanic Adventure out of time it's what started my fasination with the ship it's a point and click adventure game that has a story of a spy thriller i won't spoil it for you but i highly suggest you try it out.
@@HistoricTravels Hey, did you know that they were working on Titanic SOS V2? It was going to have almost every room accept for all of the cabins, it was going to have some cabins though, and a few other spaces would be added over time. Unfortunately it got cancelled due to it being too laggy + a bit hard to manage. Even with scripts to load specific parts of the ship at 1 time
Hey I know this video is older but I wanted to suggest to you something, if haven't heard of it before. It's called Titanic Voyage RPG, it's a text based browser game that recreates the Voyage and sinking of the Titanic from South Hampton to the Survivors on the Carpathia. It's an annual event that I think would be fun for you to talk about.
Many years ago in the early days of computers, they did have a decent Titantic computer game. The Objective was to save a fictional oil painting. You could wonder all over the ship even down into the engines. When the ships started to sink it was very easy to get lost and not make it out. Of course, it did not have the nice graphics of today's computers but was still fun to play.
I'm a nearing-middle-age guy, so I definitely remember dial-up Internet, the early to mid 90s, and all that. Oh, and as a nod to that computer pic you showed, I'm also a huge Doom fan, so there's that, too. I also wished that there had been such a game like you describe, because I was still a kid back then (of course). Of course, at least back then, we still had Titanic: Adventure Out of Time (which is also apparently highly accurate in terms of Titanic's overall design.) Anyway, nowadays I wish there was an accurate physics simulator that could allow a physically-realistic model of Titanic to be sunk, so that either different variables could be tested, or that one could attempt to recreate the sinking as it actually happened, and possibly glean some insight - however small - into the ship's demise. Like Floating Sandbox, but in full-3D. Nice touch regarding the port D-Deck gangway door, BTW. LOL. And wow....they did a fantastic job with this.
as a roblox veteran that has been playing since 2017, games like this are my favorite. There’s even a game for the Britannic called Britannic S.O.S. Nobody really plays it but if you play it, at least you get single player.
If you happen to have a VR theres a vr game in a game called rec room named Titanic Legacy Survival Roleplay, it is amazing and theres also a non sinking version
Oh! I know this game! I've tried to play it in the past but am not actually able to for the reasons that on my Xbox, it runs extremely slow and doesn't seem to load most of the time. That...and I'm terrified of this game. I know it's for realism and I cannot compliment it enough for that...but it's terrifying for me. Something about the blackened front windows on a Roblox Titanic model has always creeped me out as for me, they almost resemble eyes. That, and the lighting of this game sends it off the edge for me. I know it's not a horror game...but it sure as hell could be one if it wanted to. It's dark, erie and all I do the entire time is expect a jumpscare. And again, kudos to the developers for the realism, as I know during the sinking you could barely see anything... but my god, this creeps me out.
I had been curious about this experience on Roblox, but I usually spent my time playing the original Roblox Titanic from Virtual Valley because it was the first one I ever found and I thought it was pretty well done. SOS looks quite a bit more advanced and I'll definitely be checking it out next time i'm on. There are also some very nice sailing museums of the entire Olympic Class fleet made by ParticularParticle that I also recommend, but they don't include sinking simulation.
I think an interesting Titanic game would possibly be a little gruesome and disrespectful, but it’s the way I can think of making it a long game with stakes, multiple goals, and activities. You either spawn as a random character, a passenger in a random class, or an officer, crew member, steward, etc.. Or you build one. But each type has different roles and duties you must perform and adhere to; taking care of your responsibilities or social class expectations are what help you have a better chance in the sinking. As in the Roblox game Sam describes, your role has different duties. You have to go about all your duties while also trying to learn your way around the ship. Your character has no foreknowledge of the sinking. You have a set amount of time to explore the ship and learn your way around, while following orders, doing your job’s tasks, or getting social points or creating bonds amongst fellow passengers, all that may be that “real time” or just a day. As you go about your roles, your character can uncover information that might help you survive, like talking to someone who’s had an omen, talking to Thomas Andrews about the design, talking to the radio operators or Captain about ice warnings; or stealthily overhear these important people talking, getting this info 2nd and 3rd hand if you’re in a lower social role. Point is, the information you need will be there, things that will allow your character to have options unlocked later on that will help make informed decisions to have the best chance of survival. And even if you don’t get all the info, you can still do your best to get one one of half-empty lifeboats or whatever it takes, you just want have as big a Life Bar rapidly draining because of the icy water. During the sinking, you’ll have to carry out your duties, or as a passenger, take care of your family, and ultimately, navigate your way to take part in the launching of lifeboats. This is still the Woman and Children First era, so if you’re playing a man, the game is much harder. The more time you spend helping others, the more “good will” or “luck” you earn towards either access to a lifeboat, or if you enter the water, you’ll have a little extra stamina to survive a little longer in the freezing water, better strength to get yourself balanced on the overturned collapsible, or to get yourself pulled from the water. Having built relationships in the preceding days could be what saves your life, as one of those people you befriended sees you in the water and insists on pulling you out and revives name saving your life. Every little choice leading up to the sinking could have a sort of butterfly effect on your character’s later options and overall chances of survival. I do think there are ethics issues in turning such a deadly tragedy into a game, but I think it could teach valuable life lessons and history as well as being compelling and challenging.
I played a titanic game at school when I was a kid 20+ years ago and recall being really impressed by the size of the playable areas of the ship. Think it was called “Time travel adventure:Titanic”. It was ok but THG will be so much better, it’ll be the first video game I’ve bought in over 13 years.
From what I know the siblings are randomized so sometimes you could get James Cameron’s movie sinking and then you can get where it list to the port side etc I really like this game for role playing
Hey Sam there's another Roblox Titanic SOS that I think is a good game but unfortunately a lot of people just stop playing it because it's just not getting updates.

I'd love to see the full Titanic, especially the engine room, and what kind of damage the water will do to the boilers, or to the not properly closed furnaces.
Your TH-cam channel is one of my favourites
Love H&G been following them for years!!
Come on Sam !! Don’t tell me you didn’t play Adventure Out of Time as a kid haha. I was hoping you would mention the game at least. It was the closet thing we have at the time to experience the sinking of Titanic, even if it was very restrictive due to it being a point and click adventure and the technology of the time. I love that game as a kid.
He's mentioned in other videos that he did play that game.
I played this game, and the only inaccuracy I experienced was one of the lifeboats going yeet into the sky, presumably due to a rare glitch.
not really an inaccuracy if it’s a glitch
This ^^
As a Roblox Developer, That is something out of the Devs control, and is a Roblox Issue
I play this game almost all the time, I even worked on it on the discord. I can say for certain its polly the best Titanic game if your looking for accuracy and good roleplay
Hey Sam if you were asked to host a show on the history channel about the Titanic would you do it?
you know more gaming videos would be amazing
keep up the good work
Sincerely
Damien
hey sam , i have took a break from the channel for 6 months but im back , great to see that you have grown from 5 thousand subscribers to 77.6 thousand subscribers in 18 months . i want to give some recommendations for videos , i think you should do videos on KMS bismarck IJN yamato USS iowa and some of the british battleships like the hood .
Hi, Sam! It was very nice getting to meet you in the game!
Did we talk?
@@HistoricTravels yes, my username was MrPlane and we were in the ship’s gym
I saw you in-game yesterday! Glad to see this video released :)
I hade a wii titanic game that was SOOOOOO REALISTIC, you had exploding funnels, the ship still had lifeboats after the second funnel fell, the ‘elevators’ where fully electric, the grand staircase flooded slowly (the top deck), a person with secret passages in the titanic oh and you stop the ship moving with PING PONG BALLS.
I'm not much for games, but your description of the gave was very good, I'm surprised that you are not being used as a technical advisor with all your know. Thanks again.
There's a old game called Titanic: Adventure Out of Time. It came out in late 90s. I think like 97. It has a good fictional story about a man that goes back I time to the night the Titanic sank. It's recreation of the Titanic is one of the most accurate ever. It has actually been used as a visual animation for a few documentaries. I would love to play a more up to date game though.
I enjoyed this so much! thank you so much, Sam!
The fact that he forgot to close the gangway door in the dining room is just pure amazment and funny as hell 😂
great video!! I was actually a part of this group when they were midway through building. I played all the testing games etc!!! :)
My family had dial-up. The only time I get to hear those lovely dial up sounds when my work uses a fax machine.
How old are you Sam?
I’m an Old at 43. I played Oregon Trail during Computer Class in lower school. It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come, AND amazing how quickly we casually adopt new technologies and can’t imagine life without it!
the ad: "experience the sinking of titanic"
what the firm sells: legit time travelling sessions.
me: uh ohh...
Great review, Sam! Definitely will give it a try to play this weekend 🙂
Your video sparked my interest in this game and since my stepdaughter has Roblox, we tried it out a few days ago. It was a lot of fun, despite somehow we didn't have such good graphics as you had, but it was still enjoyable. What really blew my mind is that of course she had to try to climb up the funnels and it is also possible in the game, first we tried the "fake" funnel, then the third funnel, which we could actually fall into.😃 The second time we did the sinking mode we tried to stay on the stern as long as we could and we almost made it, however, you can actually easily fall off the stern as she plunges if you just stand there, so that's a really cool detail too! And fun fact, you can jump off the ship in the exploration mode too (of course we did it) and still die from hypothermia, also get slammed by one of the propellers. Really cool and detailed game!😊
Very glad that you decided to play this game! I suggest you play Roblox Titanic when 3.0 releases, right now it isnt too good though as the developers abandoned 2.0 to work on 3.0. There is also Britannic SOS which I think you should check out, and there is also Titanic SOS Legacy which is an older build of the game.
Oh I Can't wait
Yeah me to
Did he ever go back for that door? Eh, must not have been that important. What’s the worst that can happen? 😉
How much time would it have bought for the ship if that door had been closed?
Ahhh it's only a little water no biggie
Another Roblox game I would play in my downtime is called "Tiny Sailors World". It has a plethora of vessles to choose from and travel on, as well as various locations to sail to! The ships are beautifully modeled and I feel such joy whenever I hop on. 12 outta 10 recommended! Also, love your videos and thank you so much for doing what you do! Take care and I can't wait for what you put out next⚘️😁
A VR version of this game would be awesome.
To see the dept of everything and everything that goes with VR. 😉👍🏻
Been playing these Titanic Role-play games since 2009, starting at VVG’s version, which isn’t as nice as it used to seem, but still cool to look back on. Great video
I thought with all the late 90s references, this was going to be a review of "Titanic: Adventure out of Time", which was fairly decent at the time if you just wanted to explore the ship. The actual game play though was pretty terrible, consisting of entirely made up characters trying to steal the Rubaiyat, a lifeboat pass, and a painting by Hitler (Yes, that one!) in order to prevent or fund WWI, depending on which side they were on. The sinking itself was only shown in cut-scenes (such was the limitation of technology at the time), but during the sinking phase of the game the ship does at least list forwards while you're walking around.
The amount of detail is incredible.
Also was that a Lightoller reference? Lol
;)
What I'd like, is a submersible model, with a cutaway view. I've honestly thought about making similar or custom ship internals, in which you could battle water as it sinks your model. as a little kid I was kinda obsessed with ships and sinking and such. not sure why, I know it's a grim subject.
Theres alot of Titanic games and ship games on roblox in general. You should check them out. I think a few games you would like would be
Dynamic Ship Simulator
Shipping Lanes
Or Tiny Sailors World.
Oh I definitely remember dial-up & when there was no net. Thanks for the update, this is what I'll have to check out.
I grew up when PONG was our first computer game lol!! I have a question if the men at the bottom of the Titanic were keeping the lights on how did the lights stay on so long? Wouldn't that compartment be the first to flood? How could the lights stay on if they were under water?
Yep I remember this game I & my former best friend long story , and we played for hours.
Power generation was at the rear of the ship, which stayed dry through most of the sinking until the breakup. That’s why they had power for so long. They were lucky
Yes, I remember AOL and chatrooms and MSN! Crazy how technology has progressed. When I was a kid, the only way to learn about anything was through books. I had SO many Titanic books and I don't know where they are now sadly.
I still miss the rooms. Meeting people like that was fun
@@robertschultz6922 I don't , there were so many creeps on them 😂
@@missscarling yes I guess you are right. We all had different experiences and some were not great at all. Im sorry you had to deal with people like that!!!
I have played Titanic SOS before,there’s also two HMHS Britannic game made by different groups.
Imagine having this as a sinking model on a detailed model as this, really impressive.
I’ve seen seen custom ones and it looks great.
Ship Simulator 2006 and 2008 both had Titanic in them. Not fully recreated or realistic sinking but it still was nice walking around there.
Mega props for DOOM being on the pc in the beginning of the video. I still play that game all the time.
Another good Roblox game is RMS Titanic Sailing Simulation. It was made by ParticularParticle, and you can explore the ship when it wasn’t sinking, just like with Titanic SOS Exploration Mode. There are also sailing simulations for Olympic, Britannic, Lusitania, Mauretania, and Aquitania.
This Version of Titanic S.O.S was Awaited atleast for me and they are working on a V2 of the Model and there was a V1 A.K.A the Original Titanic Model for Titanic S.O.S. but It was more Smaller and Inaccurate and they Changed alot in V1.5 and well It Impressed me alot, Definitely a Great Titanic game for Roblox's Engine Limitations and It gets better if you put it on Max Graphics or Play Solo in a Private server but the Private servers I believe cost money but It's an Underrated Roblox Titanic game.
You should try playing Titanic Adventure out of time it's what started my fasination with the ship it's a point and click adventure game that has a story of a spy thriller i won't spoil it for you but i highly suggest you try it out.
that game takes me back
I recommend you should try searching and trying all titanic games in roblox !! Btw nice video111
Even with the primitive graphics, Adventure Out of Time was awesome ❤ I actually want to add a second OS to my computer just to run this game 😂
I had planned to mention that game in this video however I didnt have time.
@@HistoricTravels Hey, did you know that they were working on Titanic SOS V2? It was going to have almost every room accept for all of the cabins, it was going to have some cabins though, and a few other spaces would be added over time. Unfortunately it got cancelled due to it being too laggy + a bit hard to manage. Even with scripts to load specific parts of the ship at 1 time
I agree! It is such a great game -- and would be amazing with a modern update.
@@NoDoudt. I’m pretty sure that’s been released for more than 2-3 months now.
@@zer0z495 it's V1.5, it says that in the bottom right corner of the menu, they originally made it because V2 was taking them awhile
I new it, Congrats Sam!🎉 Your kid Dream has Come True🎉🎊
Last night, we ended up in a life boat together on this game. It was great briefly chatting with you!
Hey I know this video is older but I wanted to suggest to you something, if haven't heard of it before. It's called Titanic Voyage RPG, it's a text based browser game that recreates the Voyage and sinking of the Titanic from South Hampton to the Survivors on the Carpathia. It's an annual event that I think would be fun for you to talk about.
I remember AOL, even had a game called Titanic, Adventure out of Time.
Many years ago in the early days of computers, they did have a decent Titantic computer game. The Objective was to save a fictional oil painting. You could wonder all over the ship even down into the engines. When the ships started to sink it was very easy to get lost and not make it out. Of course, it did not have the nice graphics of today's computers but was still fun to play.
Adventure In Time?
@@starrsmith3810 I remember playing it but not the title
I love your videos Sam, hope you are having a great summer.
Love the video! I had been hoping you would try this game :D
I'm a nearing-middle-age guy, so I definitely remember dial-up Internet, the early to mid 90s, and all that. Oh, and as a nod to that computer pic you showed, I'm also a huge Doom fan, so there's that, too. I also wished that there had been such a game like you describe, because I was still a kid back then (of course). Of course, at least back then, we still had Titanic: Adventure Out of Time (which is also apparently highly accurate in terms of Titanic's overall design.) Anyway, nowadays I wish there was an accurate physics simulator that could allow a physically-realistic model of Titanic to be sunk, so that either different variables could be tested, or that one could attempt to recreate the sinking as it actually happened, and possibly glean some insight - however small - into the ship's demise. Like Floating Sandbox, but in full-3D. Nice touch regarding the port D-Deck gangway door, BTW. LOL. And wow....they did a fantastic job with this.
I just got a piece of titanics hull for my 30 birthday like you did historic travels
I’m 37 and remember aol being on cds and floppy disc they had so many minutes you could use
Hey Sam. The same people make a game called Britannic SOS. You would love that game as well
Sam you should try to play titanic legacy if I remember the sinking is 1 hr and 30 mins long
as a roblox veteran that has been playing since 2017, games like this are my favorite. There’s even a game for the Britannic called Britannic S.O.S. Nobody really plays it but if you play it, at least you get single player.
I remember dial-up internet, for sure! My kids remember it too.
If you happen to have a VR theres a vr game in a game called rec room named Titanic Legacy Survival Roleplay, it is amazing and theres also a non sinking version
I’m 35 and I remember dial up AOL very well.
I wish the exploration mode had a night time mode and more interiors though.
Dial up internet….I remember that quite well.
I can feel the graying of my hair intensifying!
Titanic Adventure Out Of Time… that was my jam
Oh! I know this game! I've tried to play it in the past but am not actually able to for the reasons that on my Xbox, it runs extremely slow and doesn't seem to load most of the time.
That...and I'm terrified of this game. I know it's for realism and I cannot compliment it enough for that...but it's terrifying for me.
Something about the blackened front windows on a Roblox Titanic model has always creeped me out as for me, they almost resemble eyes. That, and the lighting of this game sends it off the edge for me.
I know it's not a horror game...but it sure as hell could be one if it wanted to. It's dark, erie and all I do the entire time is expect a jumpscare. And again, kudos to the developers for the realism, as I know during the sinking you could barely see anything... but my god, this creeps me out.
wow, didn't know a youtuber like you would make a video on a game that i love.
What a breath of fresh air after binging youe Bright Side series 😂
I remember playing Titanic Roblox before SOS and while nowhere near as good, it was still pretty fun.
Yep dial up and AOL. My first computer was a TRS 80. We had to type in the program onto a cassette tape and you better know DOS!
I had been curious about this experience on Roblox, but I usually spent my time playing the original Roblox Titanic from Virtual Valley because it was the first one I ever found and I thought it was pretty well done. SOS looks quite a bit more advanced and I'll definitely be checking it out next time i'm on. There are also some very nice sailing museums of the entire Olympic Class fleet made by ParticularParticle that I also recommend, but they don't include sinking simulation.
bro… THIS GAME IS SOO UNDERRATED LIKE HOW IS ROBLOX TITANIC MORE POPULAR THAN THIS MASTERPIECE
ikr
I think an interesting Titanic game would possibly be a little gruesome and disrespectful, but it’s the way I can think of making it a long game with stakes, multiple goals, and activities.
You either spawn as a random character, a passenger in a random class, or an officer, crew member, steward, etc.. Or you build one. But each type has different roles and duties you must perform and adhere to; taking care of your responsibilities or social class expectations are what help you have a better chance in the sinking. As in the Roblox game Sam describes, your role has different duties. You have to go about all your duties while also trying to learn your way around the ship. Your character has no foreknowledge of the sinking. You have a set amount of time to explore the ship and learn your way around, while following orders, doing your job’s tasks, or getting social points or creating bonds amongst fellow passengers, all that may be that “real time” or just a day.
As you go about your roles, your character can uncover information that might help you survive, like talking to someone who’s had an omen, talking to Thomas Andrews about the design, talking to the radio operators or Captain about ice warnings; or stealthily overhear these important people talking, getting this info 2nd and 3rd hand if you’re in a lower social role. Point is, the information you need will be there, things that will allow your character to have options unlocked later on that will help make informed decisions to have the best chance of survival. And even if you don’t get all the info, you can still do your best to get one one of half-empty lifeboats or whatever it takes, you just want have as big a Life Bar rapidly draining because of the icy water.
During the sinking, you’ll have to carry out your duties, or as a passenger, take care of your family, and ultimately, navigate your way to take part in the launching of lifeboats. This is still the Woman and Children First era, so if you’re playing a man, the game is much harder. The more time you spend helping others, the more “good will” or “luck” you earn towards either access to a lifeboat, or if you enter the water, you’ll have a little extra stamina to survive a little longer in the freezing water, better strength to get yourself balanced on the overturned collapsible, or to get yourself pulled from the water. Having built relationships in the preceding days could be what saves your life, as one of those people you befriended sees you in the water and insists on pulling you out and revives name saving your life.
Every little choice leading up to the sinking could have a sort of butterfly effect on your character’s later options and overall chances of survival.
I do think there are ethics issues in turning such a deadly tragedy into a game, but I think it could teach valuable life lessons and history as well as being compelling and challenging.
I played a titanic game at school when I was a kid 20+ years ago and recall being really impressed by the size of the playable areas of the ship. Think it was called “Time travel adventure:Titanic”. It was ok but THG will be so much better, it’ll be the first video game I’ve bought in over 13 years.
I am a titanic historian as well and I also like this game it really captures the lighting like the movie 🎥
That dialup tone is nostalgic
From what I know the siblings are randomized so sometimes you could get James Cameron’s movie sinking and then you can get where it list to the port side etc I really like this game for role playing
Hey Sam there's another Roblox Titanic SOS that I think is a good game but unfortunately a lot of people just stop playing it because it's just not getting updates.
You really should Play Tiny Sailors world, where you can Even Sail the ship and choose what kind of sinking.
I have a lot of respect for maritime interactive, I actually found myself clapping at how accurate the sinking was when I played.
They were working on a Titanic SOS V2 but unfortunately it was too laggy
@@NoDoudt. it’s already in V2
@@wazzupp1029 It's v1.5
Wow it look amazing and thanks for sharing!
