The brain child of Douglas Adams (''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]''), ''[[Starship Titanic]]'' is a [[Point and Click Game|point and click]] adventure game set aboard an intergalactic cruise ship. The game opens with the ship crashing into your house, and before you know it, it turns out someone has lobotomised the main computer, the ship is adrift in space and it's up to you to fix things.
There is still a functional website that can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20050511030750/http://www.starshiptitanic.com/ here]. There is also a novelization of the game by [[Monty Python|Pythonite]] [[Terry Jones]], who claims to only having agreed to Adams' proposal to write said book if he could write it in the nude. Which he supposedly did.
