Query about 80s/90s DW computer games!

Hello!

I’m researching the many, many variants of the Doctor, and hope that the fandom hive mind might be able to provide information about a few that I’m stuck with…

Can anyone help me out with these queries:

  • On one level, Cannon Fodder 2 (1994) apparently features “Daleks, a Doctor, and the TARDIS”. Seemingly ‘Mission 4’ at least has the faux Dalek in it, but can anyone help me identify where and when the Dr Who character appears? Or even share a screenshot?
  • Is the title character of the Dr Goo computer games ever visually represented or described?
  • Imagination, a Commodore C64 computer game, apparently features a brief appearance by the AA Timelord - AKA “the Adventurers Anonymous Timelord” - whose time machine is disguised as a smaller-on-the-inside AA (ie, Automobile Association) box. Does anyone know whether this illustrated text adventure featured a visual of this character?

I’m also in the market for leads about any other similarly super-obscure apocryphal Doctors that anyone might be aware of!

Thank you

Have you looked at BBC Micro games?

It’s likely you already found this stuff but for completeness sake:
I checked as many as I could of the Doctor Goo games, none seem to allow for examining Doctor Goo directly. At one point he wears boots, that’s all I got.

Doesn’t seem to be an illustration of the AA Time Lord in Imagination. No examine text there either.
