In ‘The Doctor Who Card Game’ you take on the role of the Doctor and his assistants in defending locations across time and space from a variety of enemies AND you also play the role of the forces of evil by sending enemies to invade the locations belonging to other players.
During the game players will take it in turns to perform actions, which will involve playing cards. These cards come in four types, which are:
Defenders – the Doctor, Amy Pond, Rory, and River Song. Locations – you wish to defend your locations while attacking those of other players. Enemies – a variety of aliens and creatures intent on conquest. Support – allies, gadgets, and events that will help (or hinder) the Doctor.
The number of actions you can perform in your turn varies depending on how many cards you are able to play. This will vary as you can retain cards from earlier turns in your reserve and you can buy extra cards with Time Points. What is most important to remember is that you can never have less than three cards in your hand. Once you have finished your actions you must pass on your remaining three cards to the player to your right. Play continues in this manner until the end of the game.
During the course of the game you will create a display of cards in front of your position. The main part of your display will be made up of Location cards that you have played down. Other players can attack your locations with Enemy cards. Defender cards can either already be placed on locations or played to repel attacks. Behind your line of Location cards you can also keep up to two cards in reserve.
Here is an example of what a display might look like during the game:
At the end of the game you score points for locations that you have protected and locations that you have conquered. The player with the most points wins the game.
