You’re cruising on the Mississippi River when a massive explosion rips through the ship. Do you dive into the water to save yourself or stay onboard to help the survivors? Will you try to swim for shore or wait for help to arrive? Will you stay with your sick friend or try to find someone to help him? With dozens of possible choices, it’s up to YOU to decide how you’ll survive one of the worst river disasters ever seen.
