An'''''SOS''''', known in Japan as ''Septentrion'' (セプテントリオン), is an adventure game for the [[SNES]] made by Vic Tokai. Basically, take ''[[The Poseidon Adventure]]'' and turn it into a side-scrolling platformer, and this is what you'll end up with. The Lady Crithania capsizes during a storm, and it's up to you to escape with your life. Along the way, you will encounter other passengers and crew who you must try to rescue... [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|or not]]. You have to escape within [[Timed Mission|one real life hour]] or it's game over.
 
You play as one of four [[Most Gamers Are Male|adult males]] trying to escape. Each character starts in a different part of the ship, and must rescue a certain person to get their good ending. Depending on your character's personality, passengers may come with you right away or refuse to come along at all; you must balance time spent rescuing people with time spent escaping. In general, [[Earn Your Happy Ending|the more people rescued]], [[Multiple Endings|the better the ending]]. With the exception of drowning, the only penalty for getting hurt is to Lose 5 Minutes, which is also the only time you get to see how much time you have left.
