10 Times Doctor Who Appeared In Video Games

2. The Professor - Wizard101

TARDIS Fallout
KingsIsle Entertainment

Wizard101 hosts a recurring event in which an anthropomorphic dog dressed in an amalgam of the fourth, tenth and eleventh Doctors' outfits who is known only as 'The Professor' visits the main cities across the game world. The Professor is described by the developers as a 'strange but friendly Samaritan from outside the normal flow of time', and he travels to the wide ranging cities and worlds of Spiral in a bright red "telegraph" box.

Seeking out the Professor will eventually allow players to enter his off-brand TARDIS, wherein you'll find a very familiar interior that is distinctly bigger on the inside than it appears to the other wizards. Oh, and he's also travelling with a companion called Rose... Piper.

The Professor offers you a different quest at each location he appears at, each of them tasking the player with solving a conundrum in Wizard101's lengthy timeline to ensure everything is put right.

This seasonal event, known as "the Five B.O.X.E.S" (after the off-brand TARDISes) is probably one of the most literal translations of the time travelling hero across to games, offering magic-inclined Whovian wizards the chance to gad about solving problems in time just like the show.
