Although I never completed it when I played it about 9 years ago, I do remember that this game was very compelling.
From what I can remember, this game takes place on a ocean liner that has just flipped over, and you have to escape. You can choose to be a few different charachters and try to get out of the ship in time.
The game was very fun to play. Although I died every time while playing, I had a lot of fun going through the ship. My favorate charachter to play as was the babysitter who had to escape with 2 kids in tow. That was a lot of fun.
The main problem with the game was that it was too hard and too short. It always took just 20 minutes for the ship to sink (With me on it) and I always died. Plus, I couldent find my way around.
Overall, this game was a lot of fun to play, and I wouldent hesitate to pick it up if I found it.
The Good:
You have to escape from a upisde down ship
good sense of doom
lots of fun to play
The bad:
Very difficult
you have rediculously short amount of time to escape
The Ugly:
none
Summary:
If you always wanted to play out "The Posidon Adventure" This game is your dream come true

2D Sidescrolling adventure, One player. More for mature players. As a video game lover, S.O.S. is the greatest console game of its time. You play as your choice of 4 gentlemen on a cruise liner that is soon to be doomed, as a vicious storm rages and a huge tidal wave rushes toward the boat. Just as you get accustomed to your surroundings, the wave hits, turning the ship UPSIDE DOWN. You awaken, finding yourself literally on the ceiling as the ship had been turned over. Your goal is to find a way out of this ship, while meeting other survivors along the way. As you meet the other survivors, you have a choice as a stronger willed person to convince them to go with you, or leave them behind. The catch with this game as far as trying to help others survive is that the ship is filling with water, and it shifts positions as it sinks and as you try to discover your way out.
