It’s Sunday, 14th April 1912, short before midnight. In less than three hours the RMS Titanic will sink to the bottom of the North Atlantic and will take 1503 souls with her:

How will you feel, when the time has come to give your loved one the last farewell?

What you need to play

  • 16-40 players, 1 game master and per 20 players 1 assistant.
  • A big room, some sound PA and about 2-3 hours to play.
  • Extensive preparation by the GM necessary.
