    So, is Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock worth it? If you are a big fan of the series, then you should get some enjoyment out of getting to be The Doctor. If, however, you aren’t much of a fan, you probably won’t find this game’s mechanics and minigames to be worth your time. It is a competent effort, but not a great one.

  1. Having played the game on both PlayStation 3, and PC, I can say that this is definitely the superior version of the game. With a lot less bugs, it is clear that Supermassive Games and the BBC learnt their lesson from the PS3 launch of the game that was riddled with bugs. Rather than rushing a PC release, they took their time and instead released on Steam 6 months later. However, the game still has bugs just as any game does which may turn people away from the game. Furthermore, some bugs are game-breaking unless you can fix them (changing the graphical settings tends to fix a few issues, for some reason). This, however, does not break the game completely. I completely enjoyed my PC and PS3 playthrough, my PC version running perfectly and with no bugs whatsoever on my first PC playthrough (many other people have experienced bugs, however. I can only imagine it has something to do with memory/CPU as they were running at higher settings? I am no expert on that matter however). I would strongly recommend to anyone that even likes Doctor Who a tiny bit to buy this game, as at £6.99 it is nothing short of a bargain. Expand
  2. The game is said to be awful but when i played it I did actually enjoy the puzzles.. the game isnt here to change your life but its there to atleast give a go.. of course there are a few stupid things such as you could move around things but you cant in this game.. but its mostly about the story and the puzzles.. every puzzle for me was challenging and a lot of fun.. the gameplay itself is a bit bad but still bearable and the story is one of the best. filled with so much fun to have with the silurians, the daleks and even the cybermen.. It is a little something to pass the time i suppose and Its got me really excited about the last 2 episodes of series 7.. i give The Eternity Clock a 7/10 Expand
