## What is Explore Titanic?

Walk Titanic's decks!

You are on-board the RMS Titanic (April 14th, 1912) and can stroll her outer decks!

What better way to learn about the RMS Titanic, than by virtually walking her decks. 

Wonder what was it like to look up at her funnels, to hear her whistles, to look down from Titanic's crow's nest? You can find out in this app!

Learn as you walk, like never before!

Click icons as you walk around, revealing famous images and detailed descriptions about the very location you are at. It's easier than ever to place Titanic photographs, by being there where they were taken.

Go from the Forecastle to the Poop Deck, or go for a walk along the A Deck, B Deck and Well Deck exterior spaces. As you reach key points you'll have icons to click that show more information, images and deck plans.

You'll find out what it felt like to be on Titanic, by being there.

Set to period music, this app lovingly recreates the famous liner on her last day afloat.

The app is packed with lots of information - pull up images in the actual locations they were taken, read information about those locations and additionally view glorious deck plans (courtesy Titanic historian Bruce Beveridge) - you'll understand Titanic's decks and the context of photos and history interactively.

You can walk up to any lifeboat, read about who was in it, and much more.

See, hear and feel what it was like to be on the RMS Titanic!

Note: This comprehensive guide is for Titanic's outer decks, the interior and sinking are currently beyond the intended scope.

As with all 3d intensive apps and software, a newer device recommended (app may not run on older devices and has not been tested on iPad mini).

### 5/5 — Really good! But needs some interior!

*2025-07-21, version 1.49*

This is an amazing game. I have used this app for six years and it never gets boring. However, I would like to see interior features added to this game. It would be fun if you could explore the boiler room or grand staircase and maybe see what the first, second, and third class rooms looked like. It would also be cool if there was a mode where you could explore the titanic while it was sinking. There are a few times when you look through windows and they are hollow. Like the captain quarters is hollow, and it would be cool if you could go inside. But besides the little things, this is a great app!:)

### 5/5 — Gran star case

*2023-07-26, version 1.49*

In a future update can you add so we can explore the grand staircase on the titanic

### 1/5 — AWFUL APP

*2023-07-26, version 1.49*

The controls are is so bad attempting to go around the deck made me nauseas.  The period music is not at all suitable for the Titanic, highly unlistenable so I had to turn the sound down because the icon would not work and when I wanted to hear the bell or whistle I could not hear these because of the irritating music. There are very few photos, if more then the app isn working properly. I deleted and opened the app three times to make sure I had it right but this made no difference.  I purchased this app many years ago and had these same complaints and uploaded it again today 26 July 2023 and it is still the same, nauseas and not interesting, still the same few photos and awful music.

### 4/5 — Read Through feedback please

*2023-05-05, version 1.48*

It is a four-star from me, but I would highly recommend you/developer to have a mode were it can actually sink please also where is the interior?! 
Other than that, great detail and good job.

New game Idea is a MUST
Make one with the H.M.H.S Britannic aka Titanic’s sister ship
Thank you.

### 4/5 — Very nice, but it needs interior.

*2022-09-23, version 1.48*

I really enjoy this app and it's very cool to walk the decks, but I would be very grateful if an interior was made, like the grand staircase, boiler rooms, etc. I would also be very thankful if there was a sinking mode where you can explore the ship while it is sinking.

### 5/5 — Sinking

*2022-06-12, version 1.48*

You should add a sinking mode

### 4/5 — Amazing Game

*2022-06-10, version 1.48*

Hi, this is a great game. The music is so fun, the ship looks beautiful! But it needs an interior. If there was an interior the game would be more fun and, there’s no stairs to get on and off the Aft Deck. One more thing it needs a sinking mode.

Best, 
User

### 5/5 — Game looks great but needs some interior and needs a sinking mode

*2022-06-03, version 1.48*

I think the game looks great and all but what would make the game better is if you were to add in some interior everything from 1st class 2nd and 3rd class interiors and pls add in a sinking mode and make the ship sinking as accurate as possible but the game looks great I just hope to one day see these new updates to the game

### 5/5 — Just amazing.

*2022-03-26, version 1.48*

I am obsessed with Titanic and this is the perfect opportunity for me to explore her decks! One suggestion is: please can we go inside? I am dying to see what she looked like inside.
Awesome perfect amazing

### 5/5 — Great! But Just Gets Boring.

*2022-02-05, version 1.47*

The game is fun to explore the ship but a few minutes later it gets boring.  Because there’s not that much to explore please make it so you can go into the wheelhouse and teleports. For example make it so you can go to the boiler rooms. One more thing could you update the floors? Make It Wooden Please. Also Could You Make A Britannic Version? Can It Be Called “Explore Britannic” Thank You For The Realistic Graphics!
