(Doesn't have the Ninth Doctor in it nor is it narrative)
(I think this is technically a non-narrative video game so it cannot be invalid under the current reason games are invalid because there is no multi-path narrative to contend with. You can't have multiple tellings of a story if there isn't a story to begin with!)

An untitled Adobe Flash game was the first game and twenty-second release exclusively published on the U.N.I.T. website in April 2005 by the BBC webteam to coincide with World War Three. The Flash game allowed the player access to UNIT's missile navigation system and fire it if they so wished, however it is now no longer easily accessible due to Flash's shutdown; in order to play it, one must find a Flash alternative.

The announcement if the missles are launched.

After entering the password "buffalo" into the override code field of the UNIT website, an individual could potentially navigate and fire a missile towards anywhere on Earth.
