What's the name of... [found] SOS - SNES

Post by Opa Opa »

Okay, I'm 99% certain this is a Super Nintendo title.

You're on a boat and it starts to capsize (or maybe sink?) and you have to navigate the interior of the vessel as it sways back and forth. I think the objective was saving as many people as you could?

That's all I have. Anyone know the title of this game?

Ah, I know it damn it, but the name escapes me.

I know for a fact Hardcore Gaming 101 did an article on it. Maybe I can find it.

I desperately wanted to make a Titanic joke here...but like its voyage across the Atlantic, I only got about halfway. Good thing there's a legit answer now. ;)

You could also say like the Titanic, the game too was unique, big and ambitious for the SNES when it arrived, but it ended up going into the drink very quickly and being obscure for a long time only to be realized decades later when it too was found. :D
