The Van Statten Code was the third game and eighth release exclusively published in the Doctor Who Annual 2006 in September 2005 by Panini UK and the BBC. The puzzle game featured an original illustration by Ben Morris, while the writing of the annual's puzzles was collectively attributed to Justin Richards and Gareth Roberts.

The game heavily ties back into the continuity of the series, such as with Henry van Statten's alien collection colliding with the plot of Aliens of London and the wider lore of UNIT.

Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]

Named for Henry van Statten, the so-called Van Statten Code was broken using the Slitheen Tablet, an artefact from the Slitheen family's attempt to destroy the Earth and commercialise the result as spacecraft fuel. Now, UNIT receives a message in the same code which must be translated using the Tablet. This yields the eerie translation "Beware the Bad Wolf"...
