Other Facts
- The playable character, Frank Carlson, was the name of a real-life ticket-holder of the Titanic. However, on his way to the dock in Cherbourg, France, his car broke down and he never actually received the chance to board the liner. His name remained on the passenger list.
- There was a real jewel-encrusted copy of the The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám on the Titanic. It was won at an auction and was being shipped to New York. The book remains lost at the bottom of the Atlantic to this day.
- Some earlier versions of the game allow for the recovery of required game items out of order, thus shifting the sequence of events to unforeseen endings. It is possible, for instance, to obtain the rare painting from the ship's hold before it is even discussed or mentioned by the game characters. Another rare occurrence occurs if using the game's "teleport" function to move between rooms, at one point by-passing a puzzle involving a set of diamonds and thus possessing a fake diamond set, and the real diamonds, at the same time (something not intended to happen during normal gameplay).
- In the German version of the game, Adolf Hitler is not mentioned as any references to Nazism would conflict with Germany's censorship laws.

Famous quotes containing the word facts:
“Birth, and copulation, and death.
That’s all the facts when you come to brass tacks:
Birth, and copulation, and death.
I’ve been born, and once is enough.
You dont remember, but I remember,
Once is enough.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Experiences in order to be educative must lead out into an expanding world of subject matter, a subject matter of facts or information and of ideas. This condition is satisfied only as the educator views teaching and learning as a continuous process of reconstruction of experience.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
