:It's non-narrative. You can use any selection of characters, including having the Tenth Doctor fight in 11's place. {{User:Digifiend/SigReal|13:03,4/12/2013}} | :It's non-narrative.

::I'm way late, and kinda new to this wiki, but I'd argue that it is narrative. The dialogue in the game makes it clear that all the characters are there at once, and the player simply chooses characters for the gameplay itself since having everyone fighting at once would be unwieldy. I think it would be fair to say that the narrative elements of the game (the Sontarans damaging time, the Master doing his thing, the Doctor collecting his past incarnations and companions) really did happen, since those things aren't affected by anything the player does.

:::Going by what Digifiend says above, you can play as either the Tenth or Eleventh Doctor. Therefore, the story for each user's game experience will be different. That puts this game into the same group as [[Forum:Why do prefixes link as they do?|stage plays]], [[Forum:Decide Your Destiny and Find Your Fate are NOTDWU from here on out|Decide Your Destiny and similar books]] and [[thread:121084|in-universe websites]]. Content that changes from day to day or from user to user doesn't make for a narrative story, by [[Tardis:Valid sources|this wiki's definitions]].
