Starting out

Welcome to Doctor Who: Worlds in Time! This is a tutorial for starting out in the game.

Creating your Character

When you create a new account, the Doctor will ask you to join him by creating a character. A popup will appear to take you through the selection process of the various options.

You must also choose a single-word name which follows these guidelines:

• Names cannot have characters other than letters.
• If you cannot think of a name, there are many random name generators on the web that can make sequences of random syllables to help you come up with name ideas.
• Character names cannot contain any inappropriate language or slang.
• If your chosen name is already taken, a bubble will let you know and you will need to try another name.

Select a name and a race. You can choose from Silurian, Human, Catkind and Cheem.

Next select your skin or fur tones/colors. The options will depend on what race you have chosen.

Then you will choose either your horns, hair or ear shape. The options will depend on what race you have chosen.

Lastly, you will choose your nose and face shape.

Upon clicking the "Enter TARDIS" button, you will be asked to fill out information for your account including email address, password, and year of birth. You will also need to agree to the Terms of Service.

After this information has been saved, you will need to confirm your email address via the emailed link before you are able to play the game.
