The translation of "seal" to Swedish is wrong it should be "s?l".

gameshs seems to have a lot of translation problems especially with languages that have precise terms for objects, unlike English where one word can refer to several items (like club, diamond, spade, seal, etc.). Just out of curiosity, what were you asked to find in Swedish in lieu of the animal seal?

I really like this game and don't like to complain....but does anyone else have a problem with playing a scene that has a sinking titanic in the back drop. Thousands of people died on that day in a scene not unlike that one. It seems kind of irreverent to all those people and their families to make it into a "game". Just saying.

I don't think it's a problem .... there have been several movies made about this sad occurrence, several expeditions to view the actual ship, etc. I'd like to think of it as remembrance, and the storyline HC uses with regards to the twins is interesting.

Interesting note .... there is a "SOS" item to be found in this scene .... when the Titanic sank this morse code distress signal was relatively new and not every nation/shipping company, etc. was aware of it.

I don't think the Hindenburg actually flew past as the Titanic sailed, either. It's a pretty picture - nobody's worried about factual accuracy!

I didn't say they were ... nor did I imply any concern ... like I said, interesting note ..........

I had more of a problem with the whale - kept clicking on what I thought was the tail (even now not sure what it was) but did eventually find the whale.
