Here, you and your friends take on the roles of different incarnations of the Doctor, each with their own quirks, to thwart the nefarious plans of the Daleks. They are obsessed with erasing the Doctor from history, turning their past defeats into ultimate victories. It's a semi-cooperative game, meaning all players (the Doctors) win together if they manage to thwart the Daleks, or everyone loses together if the Daleks' plan succeeds. Travel through time and space, meet iconic companions, and face the most feared enemies in the universe. The modular board ensures each mission is unique, and dice rolling with icon resolution adds a tactical and unpredictable element. Do you have what it takes to be a Time Lord and save reality? The cooperative mechanic encourages communication and teamwork, while the strong science fiction theme and the presence of the Daleks will appeal to any fan of the series. It's a game that promises to be 'bigger on the inside,' just like the TARDIS! ## FAQ ### What is the average playtime?
