About this game
On the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, a replica is launched to complete the maiden voyage interrupted by the tragic events one century before.
However, one of the passengers receives a note about a bomb hidden somewhere on the boat.

The passenger must follow the clues left behind by the terrorist, searching the ship to find the device and prevent another tragedy. 1912: Titanic Mystery is a hidden object game with adventure elements, where the main objective is to find and click on all the items listed at the left side of the screen, on the various rooms and other locations filled with scattered items around the ship.
All the locations have three gameplay sections: initially the player has to find several instances of the same item, then search for a list of objects and finally collect all the pieces of a special tool, that appears as a picture below the list.
The tool has to be dragged and dropped on a specific portion of the scenery to access one of the mini-games.
These puzzles have to be solved to complete the scene and move to the next one.
The mini-games appear on a window at the center of the screen, where the player must reassemble jigsaw puzzles, find all the differences between two similar images, decode Morse code messages with a machine and perform other similar activities.
They can be skipped, with a penalty of 10 minutes.
The hint button is a pile of lifesavers, showing the position of one of the required items when activated.
Extra buoys can be found on each location, with a maximum of 6 stored at any time.
The completed puzzles can be replayed from the main menu.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks 12 for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding 12 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2008.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for 12, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo DS titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
