Back in 2012, Supermassive Games—the Surrey studio behind this summer's surprise hit Until Dawn—teamed up with the BBC for Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock, which was supposed to represent the first game in a series. But while the puzzle-platformer wasn't in the Return to Earth bracket of unplayable brokenness, again the Who license had been squandered on something of a stinker. A wealth of great inspiration saw the game realize some creative moments—a section where River Song has to keep her eyes on several creepy sorts from the Silence as she side-scrolls her way towards a stasis field generator stood out as something different from the game's more basic puzzles—but they were in vain as The Eternity Clock couldn't squeeze in enough of the show's singular warmth and wit to elevate the generally generic gameplay and overcome its own array of bugs. Said series was quickly canned.On Motherboard: The Physics of Doctor Who's TARDIS, Explained
