'''''Doctor Who: Legacy''''' is a {{w|freemium}} game released to both the [[iOS]] and [[Android (operating system)|Android]] platforms in the wake of the [[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|50th anniversary special]].

'''''Doctor Who: Legacy''''' was an episodic match-three puzzle role-playing video game developed by [[Tiny Rebel Games]] and Seed Studio and published by Tiny Rebel Games. It was released on [[Android (operating system)|Android]], [[iOS]], Facebook, and Amazon in the wake of the [[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|50th anniversary special]].


It currently allows users to replay the events of several episodes of ''[[Doctor Who]]''{{'}}s [[Series 5 (Doctor Who)|5th]], [[Series 6 (Doctor Who)|6th]] and [[Series 7 (Doctor Who)|7th series]], using — if they so wish — different combinations of Doctors, [[companion]]s, and featured guest stars than were present in the story as televised. Indeed, players can replay each episode however they wish, meaning that gameplay is different for all users, and even for each individual.
Initially billed as an adventure featuring the [[Eleventh Doctor]] at the crux of its events, it continued to update past his era's conclusion in [[2013 (releases)|2013]], then transitioned to his successor, the [[Twelfth Doctor]]. As character licensing rights were obtained, the game gradually expanded to feature every direct incarnation of [[the Doctor]].


It is also notable for featuring mentions and appearances of original characters from the expanded ''Doctor Who'' universe outside from the TV show, including [[Alice Obiefune]], [[Gabby Gonzalez]], [[Frobisher]], [[Charley Pollard]] and [[Liam McShane]], with more in the plans to be added.
It allowed users to replay the events of several episodes across the series with player-chosen combinations of Doctors, [[companion]]s, featured guest stars, and other notable characters. Players could replay each episode however they wish, meaning that gameplay was different for all users, and even for each individual.


Each week, more episodes are added for players to go through, working backwards in the Doctor Who episode line-up. According to the app description, the developers will not stop adding episodes until they have reached ''[[An Unearthly Child]]''.
At launch, the game's story worked backwards through the show's seasons, starting from [[Series 7 (Doctor Who 2005)|Series 7]] with the intent of working all the way back to ''[[An Unearthly Child (TV story)|An Unearthly Child]]''. But as content out of sequence with the original approach was added (including [[Series 8 (Doctor Who 2005)|Series 8]] and [[Series 9 (Doctor Who 2005)|9]], the classic series, and the [[Titan Comics]] publications), the story began focusing on original ideas and adventures, even receiving contributions from writer and fan of the game, [[George Mann]]. The cut scenes of the levels remained the same regardless of which characters were on one's team or how many times the level had been played, or the player's overall progress. Due to this, the plot remained consistent for every user on every playthrough.
 
It was also notable for featuring mentions and appearances of original characters from the expanded ''Doctor Who'' universe outside from the TV show, including [[Abslom Daak]], [[Alice Obiefune]], [[Gabby Gonzalez]], [[Frobisher]], [[Charley Pollard]], and [[Liam McShane]].
 
The game was closed down on [[18 February (releases)|18 February]] [[2019 (releases)|2019]] as Tiny Rebel Games' agreement with the BBC for the game had ended and the company decided to focus on the development of ''[[Infinity (video game)|Doctor Who Infinity]]''.<ref>http://doctorwhonews.net/2019/02/doctor-who-legacy-to-close.html</ref> The storylines for ''Legacy'' were not completed prior to its closure.


== Synopsis ==
== Synopsis ==
When the [[Eleventh Doctor]] and [[Vastra]] arrive in [[Cardiff]] on [[16 October]] [[1978]], they discover that the [[Earth]] has been prematurely invaded by the [[Sontaran]]s, who have acquired [[time travel]] and are rewriting the [[planet]]'s history. The Doctor must go back through his own personal timeline to defeat them before it's too late.
=== The Sontaran Threat ===
The [[Eleventh Doctor]] and [[Vastra]] arrive in [[Cardiff]] on [[16 October]] [[1978]], discovering that the [[Earth]] has been prematurely invaded by the [[Sontaran]]s, who have acquired [[time travel]] and are rewriting the [[planet]]'s, and the entire universe's, history. The Doctor determines that he must go back through his own personal timeline to defeat them, gathering friends and companions to help him, before its too late. Vastra summons [[Jenny Flint]], and the three go to [[Hedgewick's World of Wonders]] during the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] attack to find [[Ludens Nimrod Kendrick Cord Longstaff XLI|Porridge]], to the [[Dalek Asylum]] for [[Rory Williams]], and the Latimer Residence for [[Jagganth Daiki-Nagata]], before moving on further through the Doctor's most recent adventures. They manage to find more companions and halt the Sontaran's operations, but along the way, they find massive paradoxes destabilising time and allowing events that never occurred to happen, such as encounters uniting the Doctors' enemies, along with some events to occur out of sequence, such an encounter with the [[Silent|Silence]]. Many other skirmishes take place, resulting in [[Clara Oswald]] joining the team in [[1875]] [[Paris]], [[Sam Garner]] from the depths of [[New York City]], and [[John Riddell]] in a forest in Scotland. Stabilising the paradoxes leads to the Doctor's previous incarnations, including his [[Tenth Doctor|Tenth]], [[Seventh Doctor|Seventh]], and [[Sixth Doctor|Sixth]] selves, being sent through time to join the team.
 
The chapter closes out as the Doctors and [[The Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] team combat the [[Great Intelligence]], in the form of a glowing transparent pyramid, through its activities in [[London]] [[1892]], [[2013]], and [[Trenzalore]], uniting with the [[Eighth Doctor]] along the way, culminating in a confrontation in the Time Vortex where it calls upon [[Snowman|Snowmen]] and the [[Ice Governess]] for defence, ultimately falling to the heroes.
 
=== Enter... the Zygons! ===
Fending off an attack from a Sontaran Flagship, the TARDIS materialises in modern day London, only for the team to find themselves under attack by [[Zygon]]s, who have allied with the Sontarans and are being used as reinforcements against the Doctors and his companions. The TARDIS team presses on, going through the events leading up to the Doctor's "death" on [[Lake Silencio]] to continue stabilising time and combating the Sontaran/Zygon menace, continuing to gather allies along the way. More paradoxes also lead to the [[Third Doctor]] joining the team. But time continues to collapse, leading to battles against the [[Weeping Angel]]s over London, a [[Dalek]] invasion in 2024, an army of [[Rory (Handbot)|Rorybots]], and an "unholy alliance" between [[the Church]] and the Daleks. They also encounter a unique series of artificial paradoxes that appear to be the attempts of someone trying to reach them.
 
The Doctors begin to formulate a plan, trusting in the ingenuity of humans and believing that ensuring the safety of creative and important individuals like [[Vincent van Gogh]] and [[Winston Churchill]] can limit the fracturing of the timeline. But after facing and defeating Sontaran Captain Vade the Defiant, they are told that forces greater than the Sontaran Empire are after them. Evading enemies from across the collapsing timestream, the TARDIS team follow the trace of another artificial paradox that leads them into the edges of a time storm around December 25th, ensnaring them in a temporal hurricane of snowy weather.
 
Finally reaching the paradox, the Doctors manage to reverse the polarity of the paradox's neutron flow, allowing [[Jack Harkness]] to reach them at last. He informs them of the entry of "an old friend" of theirs into events.
 
Meanwhile, the [[First Doctor]] watches from his own TARDIS the full extent of the Sontarans' plans, and to his horror, the fall of [[Sontar]] as an army of [[Toclafane]], led by [[the Master]] {{Simm|n=in his Harold Saxon incarnation}}, overwhelm the planet and its forces all across time at once.
 
=== The Rise of the Master ===
The TARDIS team pushes through the time storm, confronting enemies the Doctors have fought previously at Christmastime. They realise Jack Harkness is right as they witness the Sontarans being decimated by Toclafane, as well as from a warning message directly from the Master. They push onward to escape the storm, passing through the Doctor's future in [[Christmas (town)|Christmas]] and uniting with the [[War Doctor]] in the process.
 
Once out, they continue running through time to evade the Master, going through through the early adventures of the Eleventh Doctor in the process. They find time to pick up some of Jack Harkness's allies such as [[Ianto Jones]], and manage to come into contact with the [[Second Doctor|Second]] and [[Ninth Doctor]]s. They're also plagued by the generation of bubble universes in the weakened timeline, which pull the the TARDIS into them as quickly as they're created. Observing their efforts, the First Doctor decides now is the time to join his future selves, uniting with them through a paradox surrounded by [[Adipose]].
 
Not giving up on catching the Doctors, the Master continues to pursue via both his Toclafane and his own past incarnations. As the Doctors evade the Weeping Angels in the caves of [[Alfava Metraxis]], they're confronted by {{Pratt|n=the Master in his decaying form}}, but the TARDIS team manages to outmatch him. Later, the Master uses [[The Master's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] to attack the Doctor's through the Time Vortex, but is again bested, leaving a Sontaran Flagship in his wake that forces the TARDIS to materialise on [[Krop Tor]] in the middle of [[The Beast (The Impossible Planet)|the Beast]]'s awakening. Not long after, they face {{Delgado|n=the Master during his UNIT day}}s in a skirmish with the Toclafane in [[Tarminster]], but would once again manage to escape.
 
In "The Hunt for Greyhound One", following a breach of Toclafane into the TARDIS interior, the Doctors realise that they need an army to fight the Master's forces, and for that, they need a great military leader. The decision to find [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]] is made, but to reach him through the weakened timestream, the need to build a specific machine to summon him. Retrieving metal casing from a [[Silent]] ship, gears from ''[[Starship UK]]'' (where they acquire a [[Winder]] ally), a sentient lens in the form of the melted Ice Governess, and harnessing the power of the Doctor's tomb on Trenzalore, they manage to retrieve the Brigadier fresh from the 1970s/80s. But the reunion is short-lived as their actions summon "time sundered" [[Whisper Man|Whisper Men]] that are much more dangerous than before, forcing the team to flee back to the TARDIS. They make a blind jump through time to escape, ending up at [[Auderly House]] during the [[World Peace Conference]], where another paradox leads to the [[Fifth Doctor]] joining the team.
 
=== Betrayal and Redemption ===
Now aided by the Brigadier, the TARDIS team determines they need a weapon that can specially hurt the Toclafane. [[Martha Jones]] remembers a diary [[Alison Docherty]] wrote on combating them during [[The Year That Never Was]], and the Doctors conclude that it might've ended up in their timeline at [[the Library]]. But before they can head there, the TARDIS is pulled into the relative future, bringing them to [[Sherwood Forest]] in the middle of the [[Sheriff of Nottingham]]'s fight with the [[Twelfth Doctor]]. The TARDIS team helps defeat him, and the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors are shocked at each other's presence before the team returns with him to the TARDIS, which now takes on the Twelfth Doctor's console room design.
 
Now up to speed, the Twelfth Doctor helps the team fly the TARDIS to the Library, fighting through paradoxes along the way that summon the [[Fourth Doctor]], uniting all thirteen of his incarnations. But as the TARDIS materialises, the Doctors vanish, and the doors open to reveal [[River Song#The Library|Professor River Song]]. The older and more experienced River takes the lead, guiding the companions through the [[Vashta Nerada]] into a chamber containing a wealth of books and material pertaining to the Doctor, where Docherty's diary is found. Its information proves immediately useful as the team fends off the Toclafane, the Saxon Master, and [[Missy]] as they return to the TARDIS.
 
The Doctors reappear as the team returns, explaining that a temporary snap in the timelines was to blame, and that the TARDIS should be able to prevent a more serious repeat. With the information from Docherty's diary, the Doctors determine that a tellurian transformer from a Cyberman info-stamp could be plugged into the TARDIS and be able to send a shock through time to disable all Toclafane. As its a rare piece of technology, the Doctors split up to find it. The First Doctor travels to Antarctica and checks the invasion force from the [[Snowcap]] invasion for an infostamp, with no luck.
 
As the Twelfth Doctor, [[River Song|the younger River Song]], and [[Clara Oswald]] search the [[3W Institute]], they're confronted by Missy, who summons a Cyberman army and a [[CyberKing]] to stop them. River retreats to the TARDIS to secure it while the Doctor and Clara utilise [[Bessie]] to escape the CyberKing, which gives chase through the streets of London. After evading its missiles and other attacks in a lengthy pursuit, the Doctor has River land the TARDIS into the ground with enough force to create a chasm in the street, which the CyberKing falls into. The TARDIS team departs London, hoping the others have found an infostamp.

You may be looking for the unrelated novel.

Doctor Who: Legacy was an episodic match-three puzzle role-playing video game developed by Tiny Rebel Games and Seed Studio and published by Tiny Rebel Games. It was released on Android, iOS, Facebook, and Amazon in the wake of the 50th anniversary special.

Initially billed as an adventure featuring the Eleventh Doctor at the crux of its events, it continued to update past his era's conclusion in 2013, then transitioned to his successor, the Twelfth Doctor. As character licensing rights were obtained, the game gradually expanded to feature every direct incarnation of the Doctor.

It allowed users to replay the events of several episodes across the series with player-chosen combinations of Doctors, companions, featured guest stars, and other notable characters. Players could replay each episode however they wish, meaning that gameplay was different for all users, and even for each individual.

At launch, the game's story worked backwards through the show's seasons, starting from Series 7 with the intent of working all the way back to An Unearthly Child. But as content out of sequence with the original approach was added (including Series 8 and 9, the classic series, and the Titan Comics publications), the story began focusing on original ideas and adventures, even receiving contributions from writer and fan of the game, George Mann. The cut scenes of the levels remained the same regardless of which characters were on one's team or how many times the level had been played, or the player's overall progress. Due to this, the plot remained consistent for every user on every playthrough.

It was also notable for featuring mentions and appearances of original characters from the expanded Doctor Who universe outside from the TV show, including Abslom Daak, Alice Obiefune, Gabby Gonzalez, Frobisher, Charley Pollard, and Liam McShane.

The game was closed down on 18 February 2019 as Tiny Rebel Games' agreement with the BBC for the game had ended and the company decided to focus on the development of Doctor Who Infinity.[1] The storylines for Legacy were not completed prior to its closure.

Synopsis[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Sontaran Threat[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Eleventh Doctor and Vastra arrive in Cardiff on 16 October 1978, discovering that the Earth has been prematurely invaded by the Sontarans, who have acquired time travel and are rewriting the planet's, and the entire universe's, history. The Doctor determines that he must go back through his own personal timeline to defeat them, gathering friends and companions to help him, before its too late. Vastra summons Jenny Flint, and the three go to Hedgewick's World of Wonders during the Cybermen attack to find Porridge, to the Dalek Asylum for Rory Williams, and the Latimer Residence for Jagganth Daiki-Nagata, before moving on further through the Doctor's most recent adventures. They manage to find more companions and halt the Sontaran's operations, but along the way, they find massive paradoxes destabilising time and allowing events that never occurred to happen, such as encounters uniting the Doctors' enemies, along with some events to occur out of sequence, such an encounter with the Silence. Many other skirmishes take place, resulting in Clara Oswald joining the team in 1875 Paris, Sam Garner from the depths of New York City, and John Riddell in a forest in Scotland. Stabilising the paradoxes leads to the Doctor's previous incarnations, including his Tenth, Seventh, and Sixth selves, being sent through time to join the team.

The chapter closes out as the Doctors and his TARDIS team combat the Great Intelligence, in the form of a glowing transparent pyramid, through its activities in London 1892, 2013, and Trenzalore, uniting with the Eighth Doctor along the way, culminating in a confrontation in the Time Vortex where it calls upon Snowmen and the Ice Governess for defence, ultimately falling to the heroes.

Enter... the Zygons![[edit] | [edit source]]

Fending off an attack from a Sontaran Flagship, the TARDIS materialises in modern day London, only for the team to find themselves under attack by Zygons, who have allied with the Sontarans and are being used as reinforcements against the Doctors and his companions. The TARDIS team presses on, going through the events leading up to the Doctor's "death" on Lake Silencio to continue stabilising time and combating the Sontaran/Zygon menace, continuing to gather allies along the way. More paradoxes also lead to the Third Doctor joining the team. But time continues to collapse, leading to battles against the Weeping Angels over London, a Dalek invasion in 2024, an army of Rorybots, and an "unholy alliance" between the Church and the Daleks. They also encounter a unique series of artificial paradoxes that appear to be the attempts of someone trying to reach them.

The Doctors begin to formulate a plan, trusting in the ingenuity of humans and believing that ensuring the safety of creative and important individuals like Vincent van Gogh and Winston Churchill can limit the fracturing of the timeline. But after facing and defeating Sontaran Captain Vade the Defiant, they are told that forces greater than the Sontaran Empire are after them. Evading enemies from across the collapsing timestream, the TARDIS team follow the trace of another artificial paradox that leads them into the edges of a time storm around December 25th, ensnaring them in a temporal hurricane of snowy weather.

Finally reaching the paradox, the Doctors manage to reverse the polarity of the paradox's neutron flow, allowing Jack Harkness to reach them at last. He informs them of the entry of "an old friend" of theirs into events.

Meanwhile, the First Doctor watches from his own TARDIS the full extent of the Sontarans' plans, and to his horror, the fall of Sontar as an army of Toclafane, led by the Master in his Harold Saxon incarnation, overwhelm the planet and its forces all across time at once.

The Rise of the Master[[edit] | [edit source]]

The TARDIS team pushes through the time storm, confronting enemies the Doctors have fought previously at Christmastime. They realise Jack Harkness is right as they witness the Sontarans being decimated by Toclafane, as well as from a warning message directly from the Master. They push onward to escape the storm, passing through the Doctor's future in Christmas and uniting with the War Doctor in the process.

Once out, they continue running through time to evade the Master, going through through the early adventures of the Eleventh Doctor in the process. They find time to pick up some of Jack Harkness's allies such as Ianto Jones, and manage to come into contact with the Second and Ninth Doctors. They're also plagued by the generation of bubble universes in the weakened timeline, which pull the the TARDIS into them as quickly as they're created. Observing their efforts, the First Doctor decides now is the time to join his future selves, uniting with them through a paradox surrounded by Adipose.

Not giving up on catching the Doctors, the Master continues to pursue via both his Toclafane and his own past incarnations. As the Doctors evade the Weeping Angels in the caves of Alfava Metraxis, they're confronted by the Master in his decaying form, but the TARDIS team manages to outmatch him. Later, the Master uses his TARDIS to attack the Doctor's through the Time Vortex, but is again bested, leaving a Sontaran Flagship in his wake that forces the TARDIS to materialise on Krop Tor in the middle of the Beast's awakening. Not long after, they face the Master during his UNIT days in a skirmish with the Toclafane in Tarminster, but would once again manage to escape.

In "The Hunt for Greyhound One", following a breach of Toclafane into the TARDIS interior, the Doctors realise that they need an army to fight the Master's forces, and for that, they need a great military leader. The decision to find the Brigadier is made, but to reach him through the weakened timestream, the need to build a specific machine to summon him. Retrieving metal casing from a Silent ship, gears from Starship UK (where they acquire a Winder ally), a sentient lens in the form of the melted Ice Governess, and harnessing the power of the Doctor's tomb on Trenzalore, they manage to retrieve the Brigadier fresh from the 1970s/80s. But the reunion is short-lived as their actions summon "time sundered" Whisper Men that are much more dangerous than before, forcing the team to flee back to the TARDIS. They make a blind jump through time to escape, ending up at Auderly House during the World Peace Conference, where another paradox leads to the Fifth Doctor joining the team.

Betrayal and Redemption[[edit] | [edit source]]

Now aided by the Brigadier, the TARDIS team determines they need a weapon that can specially hurt the Toclafane. Martha Jones remembers a diary Alison Docherty wrote on combating them during The Year That Never Was, and the Doctors conclude that it might've ended up in their timeline at the Library. But before they can head there, the TARDIS is pulled into the relative future, bringing them to Sherwood Forest in the middle of the Sheriff of Nottingham's fight with the Twelfth Doctor. The TARDIS team helps defeat him, and the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors are shocked at each other's presence before the team returns with him to the TARDIS, which now takes on the Twelfth Doctor's console room design.

Now up to speed, the Twelfth Doctor helps the team fly the TARDIS to the Library, fighting through paradoxes along the way that summon the Fourth Doctor, uniting all thirteen of his incarnations. But as the TARDIS materialises, the Doctors vanish, and the doors open to reveal Professor River Song. The older and more experienced River takes the lead, guiding the companions through the Vashta Nerada into a chamber containing a wealth of books and material pertaining to the Doctor, where Docherty's diary is found. Its information proves immediately useful as the team fends off the Toclafane, the Saxon Master, and Missy as they return to the TARDIS.

The Doctors reappear as the team returns, explaining that a temporary snap in the timelines was to blame, and that the TARDIS should be able to prevent a more serious repeat. With the information from Docherty's diary, the Doctors determine that a tellurian transformer from a Cyberman info-stamp could be plugged into the TARDIS and be able to send a shock through time to disable all Toclafane. As its a rare piece of technology, the Doctors split up to find it. The First Doctor travels to Antarctica and checks the invasion force from the Snowcap invasion for an infostamp, with no luck.

As the Twelfth Doctor, the younger River Song, and Clara Oswald search the 3W Institute, they're confronted by Missy, who summons a Cyberman army and a CyberKing to stop them. River retreats to the TARDIS to secure it while the Doctor and Clara utilise Bessie to escape the CyberKing, which gives chase through the streets of London. After evading its missiles and other attacks in a lengthy pursuit, the Doctor has River land the TARDIS into the ground with enough force to create a chasm in the street, which the CyberKing falls into. The TARDIS team departs London, hoping the others have found an infostamp.

Gameplay[[edit] | [edit source]]

Gameplay takes the form of a role-playing puzzle game, whereas each player has the option of using one Doctor and up to five companions on their team. At the start of the game, only the Eleventh Doctor and Vastra are available to play as, but with each episode and adventure finished, more Doctors and companions are made available to have on the team. The adventures with "Paradox" in the title unlock more Doctors.

During the episodes and adventures themselves, players take turns with the enemy opponent to align colours together. Depending on the colour(s) aligned, a player's team will either heal, attack, or be attacked.
