You’re so based for that, Tian.

First I was happy. “Oh nice, a Doctor Who game for on my phone!” I thought. Silly me. Then I deleted it in the first five minutes.
I don’t have anything against these types of farming games. I like Hay Day. This stuff can work. Difference is that Hay Day was made by people that wanted to make a good game. This is painfully obviously created to bank in on the FOMO and nostalgia of Doctor Who fans.
It’s made to exploit the love people have for this franchise. It’s not made to be a fun game. It’s a lot of waiting, and keep checking in for the daily bonuses to collect all the rare collectibles that are worth nothing if you think about it for more than 10 seconds.
Because they know that at some point there will be fans like you and me downloading this, but who don’t uninstall the app. Who will go through all this stuff, because “oh, it’s Doctor Who, I love Doctor Who so much!” so they give their time and money to it, and that’s all the company wants.

I just hate these kinds of things, with everything programmed to make it as addictive as possible, and then also use it to exploit the trust and love people have for a franchise.

‘Game’ sucks. Would give a -12 out of 3000

I only played this game out of a compulsive urge to complete it on this site, and after I initially rated 1.5 stars, I have dropped it to 0.5 stars. The game serves no purpose other than to get you to spend money. Frequent pop ups offer you deals to make things go faster so you can complete objectives quicker. The story is incoherent and choppy and meaningless fanservice exceeding the worst excesses of Big Finish and Titan. There is some merit and fun to be had in previous Doctor Who games like The Last Dalek and The Adventure Games, whereas this one has none and should, as it's name suggests, be lost to time.

i was addicted to the drag race game, which is the exact same premise and by the same publisher. when this was announced i was ecstatic! however, there are so many things this game could take from the drag race game to make this better, being able to skip dialogues, and make opening chests quicker, and removing the repetitive "heres how to play" with every event! its crazy the games are near identical but one has way more better UI than the other!

this has NO GAMEPLAY

you wait. to click a button. and it says. do you want to spend money. and then when you click the button. it says. do you want to spend money. and then there's a pop up. and it says . do you want to spend money.

occasionally there's some attempt at telling a story but the fact is that these stories have no momentum because you can spend days trying to complete an objective. an objective which can only be achieved by 1. waiting or 2. spending money. I don't get this.

This game inspires in me such apathy that I don't even care about insanely exciting prospects like Star Trek crossovers and Shalka Doctor's first mainline appearance in millennia. It's just simply that poor.

The 'Gameplay' could be done by a well-timed automator if it were possible. It is literally just an existant - a rock you can poke. The only reason I have it at 3 stars is for the batshit combinations of characters dreamt of by presumably randomisers cross-pollinating faster than if every species of bumblebee went up in a frenzy. /hyp /m
