If only it was a real Doctor Who, not the crappy "Equality" quota version. :-\
(Mind you, their previous games didn't work at all on my Mac anyway.)
From BBC.com ...
Virtual reality special of Doctor Who coming soon!
--------------------------------------------------
The BBC has announced today that Doctor Who fans will soon be able
to step inside a virtual reality version of the TARDIS in an
upcoming immersive VR adventure called Doctor Who: The Runaway.
Viewers will join the Thirteenth Doctor on board the TARDIS in
this animated interactive story from the BBC and Passion Animation
Studios. Fans will get the chance to be the Doctor's champion and
help her on this exciting adventure, as they find themselves at
the centre of the action facing a deadly threat.
Jo Pearce, creative director for the BBC's digital drama team,
said: "Fans will experience the TARDIS like never before in this
thrilling new interactive story. As ever, the Doctor is full of
warmth, wit and charm - helped by a wonderful performance from
Jodie - which puts fans at the heart of the story as they immerse
themselves in this beautifully animated world."
Zillah Watson, head of BBC VR Hub, said: "Our team at the BBC VR
Hub has been creating new experiences with the goal of helping to
usher virtual reality into the mainstream, and Doctor Who is
exactly the sort of series that can help more people to try this
new technology. The show has been pushing boundaries for over
55 years, and VR enables Doctor Who to explore a whole new
dimension of storytelling."
Featuring new original music from series composer Segun Akinola,
Doctor Who: The Runaway has been written by Victoria Asare-Archer
and directed by Mathias Chelebourg, whose previous VR films
include Alice, the Virtual Reality Play and The Real Thing VR. It
has been produced by the BBC's digital drama team, BBC VR Hub and
Passion Animation Studios.
