One of my favorite games growing up was the 1996 point-and-click computer game, Titanic: Adventure Out of Time - in which you go back in time to explore the doomed ship, talk to its passengers, solve puzzles, and try to change the course of history (no, not by stopping the sinking, but by preventing the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and preventing the rise of Hitler and subsequently, the savagery of World War 2).
