Titanic: Adventure Out of Time - Connection With Dust: A Tale of The Wired West

Connection With Dust: A Tale of The Wired West

Titanic: Adventure Out of Time is linked in some ways to another Cyberflix game, Dust.

  • "Buick Riviera": In Dust, Riviera is a con artist in a remote town in the American Old West who keeps borrowing money from the player; in Titanic, Riviera is now a middle-aged man who spends his time playing blackjack on the doomed ship. If the player indicates having been to Diamondback, New Mexico (the setting of Dust), by saying, "Yes, we met at the Hard Drive Saloon", Riviera thereafter uses a special deck of cards marked with the logo of the saloon from Diamondback for the blackjack game.
  • The actor who plays the photographer Eric Burns (Erik S. Quist) also appears in Dust as Farmer Quist.
  • When talking with Haderlitz in the squash court while fencing, he mentions he is headed to study the Zuni Indian tribe in New Mexico, the setting of Dust.
  • Before Max Seidelman meets you in the smoking room during the game, he says, "I've got to see a man about a horse", a phrase used by the Narrator in some of the endings of Dust.
  • If you go to the dressing table in the Turkish bath (where there is a message written in steam) there are boxes for three Cyberfix computer games, Dust, Skull Cracker, and Jump Raven.
  • A special feature of the game provides previews to three Cyberflix games, Dust, Skull Cracker, and Red Jack's Revenge (Later named, Redjack: Revenge of the Brethren)

    Ache on the lovelorn paper....
