I’m not usually a fan of these types of games but I’m a huge Doctor Who fan so I downloaded it as soon as I saw it in the App Store. It’s been a little over 24 hours since I started playing and I honestly find it pretty boring because it’s just way too easy. I’m on episode four and made it to a new map so I did give it ample time to get more difficult before writing this review, but it’s still just as easy as it was in the beginning. Also, the first time I opened the game the theme music played, other than that, there’s no sound at all (yes I checked the settings). Overall, it’s a decent game, but maybe better suited for younger fans. I’ll keep it downloaded and will play from time to time. I really wanted to give it 3.5 stars.

I wanted so bad to like this game. I am a huge Doctor Who fan. I was so excited that not only was there a Doctor Who game, but during my Apple Arcade trial. It started off cute (although a bit juvenile) and most of the hidden objects were Easter eggs/jokes from the show, which was great, even if nothing was “hidden” and it was super easy…Until that’s all it was. You have to find hidden objects to get paradox dust to move forward each piece of the story over and over and over - but they are not even just the same few scenes and same objects but half the time the objects are in the same place! Over and over to get energy to move the story along just to do it again, rinse and repeat. I played it for awhile just to see the story but after finding the same objects too many times I got so bored I finally quit. I get you want young kids to play it too, but that’s not the issue. 2 stars only because it’s Doctor Who.

I don’t write reviews like this, but reviews like this have helped me not to play a buggy game. If the game is fixed, I’d be happy to rate this a 5 star game, and update this review.I have been playing for a while now… I’m on Episode 8 on the main adventure line, but now I’m stuck on making any more progress. The game now fails when trying to open one of the Dr. Who trivia puzzles. I deleted the app, reinstalled, it still broke. I even installed the app on a different device for the 1st time, it picked up right where I left off, however when trying to load the exact same trivia puzzle, it crashed at the same spot. I can now only play the “Adventures”, but that gets me no where, as I’ve already played them all. So now my game is broken, and I can no longer progress any further. The problem appears to be either part of the game, or part of my saved game, which is in the cloud. I don’t want to start a new saved game, because it took me so long to get where I’m at.

I am almost to puzzle 300 but still stuck in the second stage. Why? Because it doesn't save across devices. Well, it does but only the puzzles not the storyline which becomes increasingly aggravating when you're basically grinding through it. I sent a ticket to the devs and basically got a standard blaming the player, "it's your fault" response. They stated that my devices where not under the same Apple game login. Which I responded that all my devices are and this was the only game, and I play many, that didn't save properly. AND if that was the case then why did it save puzzle progress. They were going to look into it. So I can only play on my Mac; no iPhone, no iPad. If you accidentally open it somewhere else then you're pushed so far back that you're back to grinding. The game itself is interesting and passes the time if you don't mind losing hours of your life playing the same scenes over and over again. Good luck
