The Eternity Clock (video game)

The Eternity Clock is the first of a three-part series of games for Playstation 3, PS Vita, and PC. It can be played by one or two players. The one-player option switches between the characters of the Eleventh Doctor and River Song, while the two-player option has both characters playing simultaneously.

Synopsis
Rogue time corridors are opening all over London, connecting Elizabethan, Victorian, Modern Day and future London. It is up to the Doctor and River Song to investigate and close these corridors - a process not made easy by the sudden appearance of Cybermen, Daleks, Silurians and the Silence throughout history!

Production errors

 * River Song's diary, the pages of which are collected throughout the game, detail River interacting with the Doctor's previous incarnations without them knowing who she was (she has entries describing Doctors one through nine), but in DW: Silence in the Library, she states the Tenth Doctor looks the youngest she's ever seen him. She could be referring to this incarnation's youthful appearance - the earlier incarnations, though technically younger, looked older due to the unpredictable nature of regeneration.
 * In DW: The Time of Angels, River tells the Doctor that she always knows who he is because she has pictures of all his incarnations, but they're not in the right order, so she has trouble knowing the order in which they came. Her diary, however, has incarnations one through nine in the correct order.

Continuity

 * The first hat the Doctor collects is a fez. When the hat is clicked, the Doctor says "Don't worry, I won't let the bad lady near you," referencing the way Amy Pond and River Song treated his fez in DW: The Big Bang.
 * One of the hats that can be collected is the helmet that the Tenth Doctor wore when he was possessed by Torajii. When the hat is clicked on, the Eleventh Doctor jokes, "Burn with me! Burn with me!" (DW: 42)
 * Iin the pages of River Song's diary the player collects, there is an entry entitled "An Unearthly Mess", which apparently occurs before the events of DW: An Unearthly Child (TV story). In it, River recalls the First Doctor catching her snooping around I.M. Foreman's junk yard; when she hears a young woman calling for her grandfather, she takes off, writing "That's a conversation I'm not yet ready for!"
 * Two of the hats that can be collected reference UNIT. There is a soldier's red beret and a UNIT officers' cap; when this hat is clicked the Doctor muses how much fun it was working with UNIT in "the seventies, or was it the eighties?"
 * One of the Doctor's hats to be collected is a Santa Claus cap; when the hat is clicked, the Doctor says "And a Merry Christmas to all of you at home!", the fourth wall-breaking line from DW: The Feast of Steven.
 * One of the Doctor's hats to be collected is the Fifth Doctor's panama hat; the Doctor says it still smells like Spectrox antitoxin from DW: The Caves of Androzani (TV story).
 * River's diary has descriptions of the first nine incarnations of the Doctor. She has apparently traveled back in time and spied on them; she will not meet the Tenth Doctor until DW: Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead.
 * River uses her Hallucinogenic lipstick, first seen in DW: The Time of Angels (TV story); the Sonic blaster, left in the TARDIS by Jack Harkness in DW: The Doctor Dances; River had it in DW: Silence in the Library; and her vortex manipulator, which she obtained in DW: The Pandorica Opens (TV story).

Timeline

 * Given that the Doctor and River are already aware of the existence of the Silence, River is still imprisoned in Stormcage, there is a reference to Bitey the Cybermat, and Amy and Rory are not seen, it is safe to date The Eternity Clock as taking place between DW: The Wedding of River Song and DW: The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe (TV story).
