Notable for its gorgeous art and its ContinuityPorn, ''Doctor Who: Legacy'' proves that there's SugarWiki/NoProblemWithLicensedGames. It's made for dorks, by dorks, and aims to celebrate all 50+ years of the show. The game makes no division between "new" and "classic" ''Doctor Who'', nor between the Franchise/{{Whoniverse}} and the Franchise/DoctorWhoExpandedUniverse: the game is filled to the brim with references and ContinuityNod moments, going beyond the televised canon and into the worlds of Creator/BigFinish, Titan '''and''' ''Doctor Who Magazine'' comics, novels, and so on. Although solid in plot, ''Legacy'' also thrives on RuleOfCool and never takes itself too seriously. (Playable characters, for example, include [[Recap/DoctorWhoS32E12Closingtime Stormageddon]], [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E2DinosaursOnASpaceship Tricey the Triceratops]] and [[Recap/DoctorWhoS7E2DoctorWhoAndTheSilurians Bessie]].)

The main story is a work-in-progress, adding significant new characters as they appear in the series, and is gradually released in chapters (four as of 2015). A selection of special level sets are also available, such as ultra-difficult "Expert" levels that drop extra-powerful characters upon completion and sets inspired by Series 8 and 9 (originally released level-by-level as their respective seasons unfolded). Gamers who spend a little bit of money are also allowed access to beta levels, additional storylines, fan-created content, and a LighterAndSofter set of levels for kids with cartoon-esque art, all of which also drop additional, unique characters and costumes.

* ContinuityPorn: Lots of characters and concepts from ''Series/DoctorWho'' are included in the game. The story first dabbled in ExpandedUniverse references by mentioning [[Characters/DoctorWhoMagazine Frobisher]] and [[Recap/BigFinishDoctorWho036TheRapture Liam McShane]], as well as [[Characters/BigFinishDoctorWho Charley, C'rizz, Lucie, Tamsin and Molly]]. Later on, characters from the DoctorWhoExpandedUniverse were included as playable characters, including Charley Pollard, Cinder, Gabby, and Alice Obiefune. Abslom Daak, Shade, and Frobisher himself were added as playable characters in 2016 as a tie-in to the 500th issue of ''Doctor Who Magazine''; a code only available in that issue unlocked them.

* CharacterFocus: Several characters have unlockable storylines built around them for those willing to pay.
** "The Hunt For Greyhound One", which takes place in the second half of Season 5 (and expands upon material in Chapter 3 of the main game), is entirely about the search for the Brigadier.
