With FFG working closely with Games Workshop on some titles, it would be a great time for a revamp of the classic GW board game Doctor Who The Game of Time and Space. It was very much a travel, explore, combat/challenge game in the style of WoW The Adventure Game with the winner being determined by which player collected all of their pieces to the Key to Time first and returning them to Gallifrey.

It could be updated to be more in keeping with the shows theme and current timeline, but keep the classic adventure game style play.

Being a Dr Who fan from way back I'd also like to see a game developed.

I think the biggest issue is translating the shows storylines into a game.Given that most episodes were essentially the Doctor and his companion trying to uncover some sinister plot by "baddie" of the week I'm not sure how you could replicate this as a boardgame. There a certainly plot driven games out there but from what I've seen they don't play particulalry well or just have the theme tacked on.

A high quality Doctor Who game would be fantastic!

The aforementioned game was in the Style of The Five Doctors - everybody plays a different incarnation of The Doctor. It could work well as a team game with all the Doctors against one player as The Master or The Valeyard or some other nemisis (most likely a modern enemy).

Yes please FFG!

Certainly don't want to offend FFG but if you check over on Boardgame Geek you'll find a few fan made Doctor Who games.

There's a solitaire story Dr Who game which is getting some really good reviews.There is also a Dr Who miniatures game and a card game.

All of the above are fan made and are of pretty good quality in terms of rules and presentation.I can send you the links if you like but didn't think it was appropriate to post them here on FFG's site.

Prior to the "new" series, I had comtemplated a "fan revamp" of the game where the competing players were competing Time Lords in the Doctor Who universe. One idea was team based with the Doctor, Romana on 1 team vs The Master, The Rani on the other. In keeping with the fully competitive version of the original, the idea was The Doctor, Romana, The Master, The Rani, The War Chief, and the Meddling Monk, all vying for the Key parts, the "good guys" to return them to Gallifrey to keep the balance of peace, the "bad guys" to of course assemble the pieces to rule Gallifrey and dominate time...
