Return to Karn

Baf's Guide

A sequel to the Doctor Who episode "The Brain of Morbius". You play the Doctor (4th incarnation, just after "The Invasion of Time"), sent by the Time Lords to make sure that galactic megalomaniac Morbius is actually dead this time (which, of course, he isn't). A bit spare for my tastes - true to its source, the two main environments are a barren alien wasteland and a series of corridors. Holds together pretty well, though. Puzzles can be tough, especially if you miss something. Some elementary knowledge of Doctor Who helps, but is not absolutely necessary. Has many timed events.
