3 Of Our All Time Favourite Dr Who
Games

The cultural phenomenon that is Doctor Who is undeniable; following so
much success on the small screen, audiobooks, and other entertainment
media, it made sense that Doctor Who would take on the video game world.
It makes perfect sense to create a video game based on Doctor Who,
doesn't it? Since the show's start, several Doctor Who games have been
made, some of which have been more successful than others. In addition
to fun and forgettable adventures for the Time Lord, he's had several
digital adventures. The Sonic screwdriver Wii Remote is an example of an
officially licensed crossover product! Check out these three Doctor Who
video games that have influenced you over the years. Or maybe get some
inspiration for
other games you might enjoy.
Dr Who Legacy
Compared to the "proper" Doctor Who game, this game more resembles Top
Trumps: Doctor Who. But most importantly, enjoy yourself! Tiny Rebel
Games' match-three game was released in 2013, and it is still popular
today. Furthermore, it is free, though some in-game transactions are
available if you need them.
Despite the lack of direct links to Doctor Who, the game still features
many Doctor Who characters. In the story, you will take on some of the
series' biggest villains while expanding your team of classic
characters. Your party members can be attacked and healed by groups of
three or more matching orbs. It's all about who can stay alive the
longest! You'll learn it fast, it's fun, and it's easy. Anyone can enjoy
this game, but Doctor Who fans will especially enjoy it. Die-hard
Whovian fans will love all the extra characters and alternate costumes!
New seasons of the show are updated regularly throughout the game, along
with the original narrative. You can also purchase comics and audiobooks
from Titan Comics, Big Finish, and George Mann, the author of Machines
of War. We are very impressed with this tribute and highly recommend it.
LEGO Dimensions
Now here's a surprise that nobody saw coming! It was a pleasant surprise
to discover that Doctor Who was part of TT Games' LEGO Dimensions, a
massive, cross-platform game with iconic franchises.
There is a lot of Dr Who-love in this game. There is a giant Doctor Who
Adventure World and two levels filled with Easter references and Easter
eggs. Zygons and Sontarans both exist, as well as
Daleks, Cybermen, and
Weeping Angels! As you can choose any of the twelve incarnations of the
Doctor, playing as your favourite is undoubtedly a pleasure in this
game. Even better, when you add back to back Back to the Future and The
Lord of the Rings, you get the ultimate Doctor Who experience.
However, what makes it so good is its gameplay. Bringing together
LEGO
and Doctor Who in one game is a brilliant idea. Aside from its
mind-blowing puzzles and extraordinary writing, this game is a pure
delight from beginning to end.
Dr Who: The Eternity Clock
One more Doctor Who series, one more Doctor Who video game! This video
game takes place during Series 6 and was released on the PlayStation and
PC in 2012. The Eleventh Doctor and River Song team up to save the world
by obtaining pieces of the Eternity Clock. The heroes will face numerous
challenges, such as Daleks, Cybermen, and Silurians.
The gameplay involves River escaping prison, but there is also an
element of stealth. You'll find plenty of goodies throughout the game,
in addition to its puzzles; unlike River, Dr Who can look for hidden
hats by piecing together chapters from his diary. The voices are once
again provided by Matt Smith and Alex Kingston, enhancing the game's
authenticity. In terms of Doctor Who standards, the episode was not
particularly original or flawless, but it was a lot of fun anyway.
Several new Doctor Who games were also planned to be released alongside
The Eternity Clock, but they have since been cancelled. Unfortunately,
more potential could certainly have been realised.
