Play Dalek Attack Online
Fight off Daleks, navigate through levels, and collect items as the Doctor in this retro side-scroller from 1992.
Dalek Attack came out in 1992 for MS-DOS, developed by Alternative Software Ltd. It was one of those early '90s Doctor Who games that felt very much of its time, with chunky pixel art and a straightforward premise. You play as the Doctor, trying to stop a Dalek invasion across various locations.
You control the Doctor through a mix of side-scrolling and top-down levels, using weapons like grenades and a laser pistol to fight Daleks. The main goal is to clear each screen of enemies and find key items to progress. The game shifts between on-foot action and hoverbike sequences, which keeps the pacing varied but can feel uneven. It's not an easy game; the controls are a bit stiff and the enemies respawn quickly. Playing it feels like a rough but earnest attempt to capture the spirit of the show through action.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
