Now complete, with all Doctors finally available! I must admit to making a couple of 'Homebrew' changes (such as making Yas 13s linked companion because it seems to make more sense) and additions (such as the companions mentioned by 8 before his regeneration), but this game really lends itself to that.

I need to get back onto watching Doctor Who. I'm finished the Eccleston series and then they took it off of Netflix, and I don't have Prime. Despite not knowing a lot about Doctor Who, though, I know enough that I am really intrigued by, and wanting to play this game. GF9 seems to be great at themeing their games around good IPs.

There does'nt seem to be enough worlds, there is plenty of room for expansion it seems.

It was originally supposed to include Doctors 5 and 10 with an MSRP of $75; the BBC requested they bring the MSRP down to $50, so they cut two Doctors out to sell as an expansion (for $25, so it comes out the same). If they had to do that, it's pretty understandable to cut Tennant - the most popular one will be the best for moving the expansion, and the four left in the base game are plenty popular enough on their own to move it. (Meanwhile I'm left hoping they hurry up and get the 5 and 10 expansion out the door so they can move on to Eccleston. :P )

Just got it today! Read the 30 page rule book and here I am. I missed so much

Thank you so much for the review! I wasn’t sure about it, but now I’m really excited. A must get now. Also, I too was disappointed to see Matt Smith instead of David Tennant.

So, Elder Sign meets Firefly. Got it. The Firefly similarity is no surprise considering it's Gale Force Nine, but I like the infusion of Elder Sign.

Absolutely love that the game encompasses the entire show. If it was just the 9th Doctor and on it would have been a hard pass from me. But with classic planets and companions I have to get it.

This is one of those games I will buy simply cause of the theme lol... cause I don't see many if any actual board game with Dr. Who theme that isn't Clue, Trivial Pursuit, Monopoly, or Yahtzee

I am a big fan, and I definitely enjoyed the Dr Who feel, and though I thought it was a blast to play through, there were two negatives to the game in my opinion: First was the down time. We played with 4 people and the game took two hours. Given that there is rarely a need to get help until the end of the game, there was little for you to do on your turn, Thus out of the 2 hours, each player really was only engaged for 30-40 minutes. Mechanics really felt divorced from the theme. Rolling and refilling dice to meet requirements really did not “feel” like Doctor Who. Again though, as a fane of Dr Who, there is some love for the game.

Great review, thank you so much!

The limited number of Doctors just means we need enough people to buy it so they put out expansions!

Thanks for the review. This sounds like a good game for me, as I enjoy both Dr. Who and board games.

I liked Tom Baker as well, but favorite companion was Sarah Jane Smith

This game is mostly waiting while another player counts dice. I was hoping for more push your luck og at least some meaningful gameplay, but unfortunatly it's way too abstract. Yes, the characters are there on the cards, but not much story is told. The game needed another year or so in development.

Thank you for this. Must buy🖒

so have you played doctor who time clash and how would these two compare as a doctor who game?

the gameplay reminds me of elder sign

I for one are happy to get Matt Smith over Tennant (and looking forward to 7&9 as well).

can you play it solo and if so does it solo well?

Nyssa is not pronounced NEESA.

Did they include K9? I love David Tennate (sp)...

i like the video big bro i subscribe lol🤪

Great game review! Being a Dr. WHO fanboy for many decades... I'm a HUGE Tom Baker and Peter Davison fan!!!! This game looks fun... thanks....

For a Doctor Who fan, you mispronounced "Dalek", "Davros", and "Nyssa".
