Doctor Who game for iPhone

According to MCV, everyone's favourite time traveller will be getting his very own video game for the iPhone/iPod touch!



BBC Worldwide wants to see its brands on iPhone and Facebook as much as it wants to see them on DS and Wii. And a packet of crisps, if that were possible, too.

“We are open to conversations with anybody in games about all kinds of business models to see how we can extract more value,” said Neil Ross Russell, MD of children’s and licensing.

“Outside of Disney we have the most well-known line-up of children’s characters around the world.”


Hopefully it'll be worthy of Doctor Who and eclipse previously licensed games, which were, for the most part, risible. I live in hope that a point-and-click adventure will appear, and touchscreen would be the perfect forum. See The Secret of Monkey Island: SE (iTunes link).

Great news and somewhat belated.
