Oct. 2025

I have sort of a love/hate relationship with this game. To be fair, it was of FANTASTIC quality, and I loved the insanely great graphic inclusions and real-life style of the game. On the other hand, even taking your time as a first-time player, this game is only four to five hours long at MAX. I played for two hours from beginning to finish and it was my first time playing, and I made most of the achievements. So I would say that it's biggest flaw is how short this game really is, no matter what you decide to do in the game. I LOVE Doctor Who, and I am always in love with anything Whovian. So naturally, I do love this game. But I really think they could have done a lot better by making it a bit longer, maybe even at the expense of some of the more unnecessary graphics (ducks!!). I loved the interactive play, and the unique puzzles that actually forces you to *think*, but without being impossible to solve. Overall, I enjoyed the game, it just was literally the shortest game I've ever played. Be sure to stick around after the (unnecessarily long) credits roll at the end of the game (after the call from the Doctor) in order to see which achievements in the game you accomplished! Overall, 3.5 out of 5 stars.

Nice little game that acts as a sort-of sequel to 'Blink.' About two hours or so worth of game play. Great to see some familiar faces.

Dec. 2024

Short, sweet, and pretty fun for a Doctor Who game. Honestly, kinda hope we get a sequel or follow-up game to some degree. I'm pretty sure the game is intended to be connected to the VR Game The Edge of Time/Reality with the comment about the laundrette, but it could just be a simple easter egg. I do wish there were Steam Community items though, The Adventure Games had some but they were low-quality and hard to get now that the game is delisted. I did notice some spelling errors, but overall I really enjoyed this game. I do wish there were some ambience/music or something going on in the background but maybe that's the whole point. Silent to keep you in suspense.

Oct. 2024

A very fun indie Doctor who game. It definitely captures the terrifying presence of the weeping angels. The references to Blink and other Easter eggs makes it even better as a fan.

Oct. 2024

Nice little indie game. Nothing too fancy, acts as a sort of sequel to Blink. Had fun, pretty interesting storyline. But can we please get an actual proper videogame for Doctor Who??? Like an RPG with a new Doctor whose personality you can mould with dialogue , or an action adventure game, or a shooter with Torchwood... Just throwing ideas at the wall... 7/10
