But Doctor Who has always been more about action, and The Eternity Clock tries its best to provide that balance as well.Īt its heart, The Eternity Clock is a puzzle game. If the whole game were filled with such moments, the game would be an absolute blast. When you're running around as The Doctor, getting shot at by Cybermen, and trying desperately to unlock a door with your sonic screwdriver, it absolutely feels like the real thing.

It certainly sounds like Doctor Who, but does it feel like it? In its best moments, yes. He enlists the help of his on-again, off-again ally, River Song (voice and likeness of Alex Kingston) to stop a plot that could threaten all of time and space. He lands on Earth to try and fix the problem, and stumbles upon many of his greatest enemies in short order. One can only hope that this all works out a lot better than Sumo Digital's dire Doctor Who: The Adventure Games.Things begin as normal, with The Doctor (voice and likeness of Matt Smith) in the middle of some catastrophe. More details on the series' next two installments are promised for next year. The 'wholly new' storyline for the series was written with the BBC Wales team, who make the TV show, while Doctor Who stars Matt Smith and Alex Kingston have lent their voices to the Doctor and River. The series is being developed by Supermassive Games, an English developer behind a number of levels for LittleBigPlanet and Sackboy's Prehistoric Moves, as well as several other PS Move titles. Publisher BBC Worldwide-the commercial arm of the BBC-explains, 'Gamers must learn to master the complexities of time travel with exceptional time based game play, changes made in one time will impact another creating multiple possibilities and challenging players to solve puzzles across the centuries.' You see, once again, the Earth is in danger, and only the Doctor and his charming ladyfriend can save us all by hopping in their time machine. The first installment, Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock, was announced today for downloadable release in 'early 2012' on PC, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 3 Vita. The Doctor and River Song are going on a merry romp across time and space in a new series of games based upon the lovely BBC sci-fi series Doctor Who.
