Titanic Mystery: Ao no Senritsu English translation
タイタニックミステリー 蒼の戦慄
BlackPaladin and Bunkai's English patch for a Japan-only Famicom Disk System game about salvaging the Titanic, with a translated manual.
What's translated
The patch puts the whole game into English, with a new font, room made in the game files for the longer English text, a redesigned title screen and an English naming screen. It also comes with a translation of the original instruction manual, which includes a short manga telling the story behind the game.
BlackPaladin did the hacking and font work and Bunkai translated the Japanese text. Lorenz expanded the files to fit the extra text, Mutvil designed the title screen and FCC helped with the naming screen and testing.
Good to know
Two quirks of the original game remain: once your funds hit zero they stay there whatever you sell, and the game can be fussy about detecting disk side changes, so you may have to swap sides a few times before it starts loading.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese disk, following the instructions included with it.
