AUNTIE Beeb has had better luck on the software front with a new Doctor Who adventure game. The doctor has forsaken his traditional enemies, the Daleks, to do battle with warlords and bandits. The tape, Doctor Who and the Warlords, is produced by BBC Publications for the Beeb and Electron and will be available in the new year for £7.95.
You play the doctor's companion marooned on the planet Quantain in the distant future. Together you must defeat the evil warlords in this pure-text adventure. The program was written by AU contributor Peter Voke.
The original Dr Who software tape, which consisted of several poor arcade-type games programs, has been quietly dropped by BBC Publications.
