10 Fiendishly Clever Secrets Hidden In Video Game Covers
1. The Music Room Puzzle Solved - Starship Titanic
Just a few months before Metal Gear Solid bamboozled everyone with its cleverly hidden codec frequency, adventure game Starship Titanic - designed and directed by The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy's Douglas Adams - similarly featured a major puzzle solution on the game's back cover.
The game's ludicrously difficult Music Room puzzle requires players to configure a series of knobs and slides in the correct positions in order to progress, but the back cover actually offers up the solution, saving attentive players a major headache.
Unfortunately, when the game was re-released on Steam a few years ago, it naturally didn't come with a cover at all, causing unsuspecting players to get stumped on the puzzle.
Thankfully there are tons of solution videos on YouTube, and a quick Google search will reveal the above image of the back cover anyway. Phew
