It is a text-based adventure featuring an unspecified Doctor (possibly the Sixth, as he was the current Doctor at the time). The game loaded in two parts, with a password and information from the first half needed to successfully continue into the second part. Each part was recorded on one side of the cassette. There were over 250 locations in each.[3]
Development
Former series producer Graham Williams was one of the designers of the game.[4] A ZX Spectrum version was planned but never released.[3]
