    The wider audience may not appreciate this game if they aren't fans of doctor who the game has a few launch bugs and is not enhanced in anyway for next gen.
    It comes in at a budget price and is around 4 to 5 hours long    … Expand

    Horrendously bad.
    Graphics look more than a decade and two generations of hardware old. Gameplay is frustrating and uninteresting. Plot is nothing to write home about. Would be disappointed at half the price. This game is the quality of a $2 Steam game.
    I did love the inclusion of the Miniscope from Carnival of Monsters (clearly the team did have a passion for recognition of classic Who    Horrendously bad.

    I did love the inclusion of the Miniscope from Carnival of Monsters (clearly the team did have a passion for recognition of classic Who as well as new), and the music is pretty good, which is a shame for the composer as his good work has been wasted on an otherwise worthless game. These two points get it a rating of 2/10 - it would have received nothing on the merits of any of the rest of the game as none of the rest of the game has any.    … Expand

    For players experiencing Doctor Who: The Edge of Reality, an enjoyable adventure with a real 'Who' feel is likely to satisfy all. Maze Theory is doing some fantastic work across the board with all the titles it has released around the franchise. For players who picked up the original, however, this is a bit of a harder sell. Having a fully fleshed out Tennant, and a satisfying conclusion, are probably the biggest draws but there is always that underlying feeling of some things being drawn out for the sake of it. Think of a dangling plot thread hanging for seasons at a time. Not that Doctor Who would ever do that of course. *Cough*Fugitive Doctor*Cough*

    David Tennant does infuse this story with a lot of life in the short time he’s featured, and a particular end sequence set on a cybership sets the pulse racing by tapping into the show’s mild horror. However, neither detract from the original experience’s flaws. The chief appeal of playing in VR was being able to immerse yourself into an episode, and even that has now been lost in translation.
