BBC announces The Doctor and the Dalek game

The BBC has announced a new game for younger children, called The Doctor and the Dalek. Full details on the BBC site (see link) but in essence this is part of the BBC’s new campaign to get children into programming as part of their Make it Digital initiative.

The setup is intriguing:

Players join the action as the TARDIS materialises amidst a deadly pursuit through space – a Dalek Saucer bearing down on a Cyber-ship. But from that Cyber-ship emanates a distress call – from a Dalek! On freeing the battered Dalek from his Cybermen captors, the Doctor finds himself taking his new unlikely ally on a mission to save all of creation from destruction at the hands of his greatest enemies.

There are lots of puzzles to solve and the game has been voiced by Peter Capaldi.
