Then, change another letter in that title, and anagram, to get a third movie that came out 29 years after that. All are very well-known movies. Which movies are these?

This gorgeous monochrome logic puzzle game where you have to unravel the secrets of an ill-fated sea voyage was an obsession for our whole family for a few weeks. Utterly deserving of its #12 spot on Polygon’s Top 100 Games of the Decade.
