Throughout the book, there are half and quarter page photographs from various seasons of Doctor Who, including the original run of the series.

This review is based on the PDF of the game, in part because shipping from overseas may require time travel to properly facilitate for the foreseeable future. Now that Doctor Who: The Roleplaying Game Second Edition is out, I decided to brave the Vortex and see where the TARDIS takes me. ![]() I picked up a huge bundle of the Doctor Who Roleplaying game from Cubicle 7 over a year ago, but unfortunately, I never managed to take the time to dive into the game. Because of their very distinct ways of resolving situations, Star Trek and Doctor Who have always been shows where I wanted to attempt to capture some of the magic of those stories. I love the feeling in a licensed RPG where you can walk the line between having your own story, but still hitting the same beats as the inspirational material.
