Doctor Who Board Game

Product Information

Don’t Blink is for anyone wanting a new and challenging experience that feels balanced throughout. The gameplay is full of puzzles, almost minigames, on how to navigate the limitations and powers of both roles. However, if you’re not prepared to go to mental or tactical war with your friends, sadly I would not recommend this game to play, even with strangers. I don’t suspect that gameplay will become stale as player count and even difficulty modes can provide a new experience and replayability. Exterminate!" They muttered about their sacred hatred, the Oncoming Storm. Their creator had a plan, a plan to make the Daleks great again. A plan to turn all their defeats into victories. A plan to remove the one variable that has always interfered with the master plan. Doctor Who must be erased from time itself! Gameplay continues until all of the Repair Parts have been returned to the Tardis by the Heroes or if the Angel player captures all the heroes and steals their lifetimes. Don’t Blink cards have to be discarded when revealed by the Angel player, which makes it harder for Heroes as the game continues. Game Experience: The Dalek turn takes place after all doctors have been and they move forward one space. If the Dalek ship reaches Gallifrey or all the Dalek miniatures are placed, you lose.

The Race to the Tardis Expanded Universe edition comes with all new Doctors counters, companion, and encounter cards to further you’re playing experience. TV’s favourite Time Lord takes on the Lonely Assassins in this new game from Gale Force Nine, and Don’t Blink makes some bold choices from the outset. While GF9’s other Doctor Who board game, Time of the Daleks, draws on the show’s near-60 years of history and makes use of its most enduring alien foes, this entry is laser-focused.I never watched much Doctor Who but always loved the Don’t Blink episode and the idea of the Weeping Angels. The fact that the only way to really make it through an encounter with them was to keep your eyes open made them honestly one of the scarier monster concepts ever. So a game where you could try and outwit them was a game I could not pass up! The only plastic you’ll find here is in the bases for the standees – no dice, no meticulously detailed miniatures. It’s a low-fi approach that feels absolutely right for this game, and GF9 have leaned into it wholly. The tiles, tokens, and standees are all suitably chunky and substantial, and we get proper photos of the actors in their roles, not vaguely recognisable artwork that sidesteps image rights.

In Don’t Blink you need to decide which team you want to be on: the Weeping Angels (one player) or the Heroes (up to four players). The Heroes are The Doctor, Amy Pond, Rory Williams, and Clara Oswald, each with their own unique power. The game map is modular and creates a 3×3 grid with almost labyrinthian passages. Everyone chooses where they will start on the board before gameplay begins. The Doctor has to use what is left of the TARDIS' telepathic circuits to break the Laws of Time and enlist the assistance of her former incarnations and numerous travelling companions. Don’t Blink is a one-versus-many game for 2 to 5 players that takes about 45 minutes to play. The best experience is with three players for challenging gameplay without the co-op infighting. Gameplay Overview:The Tardis crew start with ten Don’t Blink cards, but you can increase this to the 12 provided for an easier game – I’d recommend this if you’re playing against an experienced Angel player or just get fed up losing, as it’s designed to be a tough game for the heroes to win. It's always an excellent service with brilliant products at a very competitive price - will use again! Category Board Games Tags Andrew Haught, Dice Tower, Doctor Who, Time of the Daleks SKU ZBG-DW001 Availability The game comes with miniature Daleks, Davros, Tardis and Doctor figures. They are of a decent standard and paintable if you want to. The Doctors included are the first (William Hartnell), fourth (Tom Baker), 11th (Matt Smith) and 12th (Peter Capaldi). The game was originally going to include the fifth and 10th doctors too, but they were taken out a few months before release to lower the price to make it more accessible. Hand management is another consideration. It’s tempting to hoard your precious Don’t Blink cards for later turns, but as I discovered on the first turn of my first game, that can mean losing one of your heroes early on, along with her special ability, leaving the remaining heroes even more exposed.
