Games

Board and Card Games

Doctor Who - The Game of Time and Space (1980);

This boardgame from Games Workshop came in a bookshelf style box that featured Tom Baker as the Doctor in front of several Daleks on the cover. The game involved two to six players moving around the board attempting to collect pieces of the Key to Time. Along the way the players face classic Doctor Who aliens and villains and collect various companions and items to help them.

Doctor Who - Battle for the Universe (1989);

Published by The Games Team, this game could be played by two to four players. One player would play the role of the Doctor while the others would play one of three villains, namely Davros, the Master or the Cyber Controller. Each player would also have a team of four assistants which they would collect (the Doctor having his companions while Davros would have four Daleks, for example) while moving around the board and challenging each other in hyperspace "battle zones", until confronting each other in a final battle for control of the universe.

Doctor Who Collectible Card Game (1996);

Published by MMG, this collectible card game for 2 players involved each player building a deck of cards from their collection and playing that deck against each other. The object of the game was to remove the opponent's six Time cards before they removed yours. This would be accomplished by attacking the other player using cards representing the various Doctors, Assistants and monsters that had appeared in the original 26 series of Doctor Who.

Role-playing games

Two role-playing games have been released set in the Doctor Who universe, with a third currently in production:

The Doctor Who Role Playing Game (1985)*;

Published by FASA, The Doctor Who Role Playing Game allowed players to assume similar roles to the Doctor and his companions or as agents of the Celestial Intervention Agency. It had a picture of the Fourth Doctor and Leela on the box and its game system was based on the Star Trek RPG also published by FASA. The main set of three rulebooks was followed by several separately published adventures and sourcebooks for the game. A range of 25mm white metal miniatures were produced to coincide with the game, these were designed and released by Citadel Miniatures in the UK. They were also released and distributed by RAFM in the USA and Canada.
