        1. @dudeinboots Well, looks like it's up to 5 now. And they're at http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/dw/theadventuregames, though again, I have no idea if they're even available outside of the UK.

        2. @dudeinboots Also, they're adventure games, and the quality is pretty variable (City of the Daleks is annoyingly repetetive, Blood of the Cybermen is passable, TARDIS is actually really good, Shadows of the Vashta Nerada is passable, not played The Gunpowder Plot yet). They all tell perfectly good Doctor Who-y stories, though, so I'd still recommend playing all of them if you're a fan of the series.

            1. @dudeinboots PC, and they're download-only, so there's no physical disk to be able to find on Ebay, unfortunately.

                1. @dudeinboots Probably, yeah. In the UK, we can just download them from the BBC site, but that's because the BBC is entirely tax-funded, which leaves them bound by a pretty strict set of rules (no advertising, not allowed to directly sell products (though there's a separate, international arm called BBC Worldwide that can; that's the company that sells DVDs and such), and various other more obscure rules). The end result being that they _have to_ make those games available free here, whereas I have no idea whether they sell them to non-UK folk, or just don't make them available at all.
