Doctor Who: The First Adventure was the first officially licensed Doctor Who video game, released in 1983 on the BBC Micro.

The Fifth Doctor makes his way through four different stages, each a Who-themed variation of then-popular arcade games, including Pac-Man, Frogger, Space Invaders and Battleship.

While this was the first licensed Doctor Who video game, it was shortly preceeded by Doctor Who Adventure[1]. BBC Software soon followed up with Doctor Who and the Warlord.
