starship titanicalitality.

Even though this was my 2nd copy, I picked up 'Starship Titanic' to get the packed-in bonus item, the somewhat sought-after official strategy guide, at Barnes and Noble yesterday. It's got a full solution, plus a bunch of 'making of' info to what is essentially the third in the late Douglas Adams' interactive fiction trilogy - the first two being 'The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy' and the wonderfully screwy 'Bureaucracy'. Despite 'Starship Titanic' being a bit of a disappointment in many's eyes, it was a valiant attempt to resurrect the text adventure as a videogame format, with an interesting but flawed parser which really _tried_ to advance the genre. Oh, and John Cleese as a talking bomb. All good.
