Download and install Bluestacks on your PC from:
https://www.bluestacks.com/download.html
Download the Doctor Who Legacy 3.5.2 for Android XAPK
file from:

and l
aunch BlueStacks on your computer.
Now, press the
Ctrl + Shift + B keys or
click on the Install apk button from the side toolbar: This will open up a
Windows Explorer pop-up, from here you can
navigate to the Doctor Who Legacy xapk file you want to install on BlueStacks. Once you click open it will install.
Next we will install Lucky Patcher. In Bluestacks navigate over to system apps and use their Google Chrome app to access the internet.
Use the following address to to download the Lucky Patcher Installer 9.4.0.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/m5c5hglpy0shvwi/Installer_9.4.0.apk/file
Click the installer button and once Lucky Patcher is finished downloading it will open itself.
You will be prompted to allow LP Installer to access photos, media and files on your device. Choose allow.
A pop up will ask if you want Lucky Patcher to install APKs.
MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE BOX then click yes.
At the next pop up, choose install and open once complete.
A new pop up will come up choose “Provide”.
A new pop up will ask “Allow Lucky Patcher to access photos, media and files on your device”, choose “Allow”.
Typically a pop up will ask if you want to download to the new custom patches but this is not required so say, “No”.
Now that it has installed it will ask to uninstall the installer. Click the button to proceed. A new pop up will confirm this again, click “OK”.
You should be booted back to the home screen and see Lucky Patcher there.
Open Lucky Patcher and choose “Provide” at startup.
Lucky Patcher does not need to access the device's location choose, “Don't ask me this again” and “Deny”.
Lucky Patcher does not need to manage your calls choose, “Don't ask me this again” and “Deny”.
The next pop up you can choose “Don't show me this again” and “No”.
You are now in Lucky Patcher. Choose the Doctor Who Legacy app from their list.
For many individuals your screen may need to scroll down to see the complete Menu. On the side there should be a toolbar with an arrow pointer. If not you can always use
Control+Shift+F8. This gives you the ability to scroll with your cursor.
You will want to select Doctor Who Legacy and Menu of Patches.
Choose create Modified APK File.
Choose APK with Multipatch.
Choose “Remove Lisence Verification” and “Support patch for inApp LVL emulation” and click the Rebuild this App button.
Choose “Next Step”.
Choose “Next Step” again.
A pop up will come up talking about how the Doctor Who Legacy App will only work on this device. You can choose “Don't show me this again”.
Your results will be displayed. You will see some statements about Success and Failure but ignore this it is normal. Choose the Go to File button.
Choose Uninstall and install.
Choose “Yes” at the next screen this will uninstall your Doctor Who Legacy App and Install our modified one. You will be prompted again to confirm, select “Ok”.
The Doctor Who App will pop up, choose “Install”.
Choose “Open” once the download is complete.
You will see the Doctor Who Logo and then it will get stuck (Don't panic).
Whenever Lucky Patcher is used the .obb file for Doctor Who Legacy gets lost.
To replace your .obb file proceed to the following address through Google Chrome in Bluestacks and download the file:
drive.google.com
Return to the Bluestacks, My Games homepage. And use the Google Play store to download an extraction software program called 7zipper.
Open 7Zipper and allow it to access files. Now close it.
On the Bluestacks My Games homepage you should see system apps and use their media manager to locate the file you downloaded main.61.com.tinyrebel.doctorwholegacy.obb.
Once you click on main.61.com.tinyrebel.doctorwholegacy.obb. it should open in 7zipper.
IMEDIATELY REMOVE THE CHECKMARK IN THE CHECKBOX THAT SAYS CREATE FOLDER! If you do not, the file will be extracted wrong and will not work.
Click the folder with two dots. Click the folder with two dots again.
Now you need to navigate to where you want the file extracted to. Select the folder Android.
Now select the folder obb.
Click the folder called com.tinyrebel.doctorwholegacy. Press the OK button, let it extract and hit close. Now close 7zipper.
Now start Doctor Who Legacy. It should boot up and make you go through the tutorial. Now go to the store and attempt to buy some time crystals.
Once the crystals are clicked on, you should see a pop up from Lucky Patcher. It asks, do you want to get this item for free? Choose yes but do not click any of the other boxes about saving your selections because this just confuses the program.
Use the same process for purchasing locked levels. When you click on the level you want, the Lucky Patcher should pop up.
Getting the final Doctor Who Legacy update that included Missy, additional challenge and expert levels will require you to download this file in Bluestacks via it's Google Chrome app:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VYjPvniBQ30YbQLbwYdXAfCjdlk9hyQT/view?usp=sharing
Once its downloaded, click on com.tinyrebel.doctorwholegacy.
IMEDIATELY REMOVE THE CHECKMARK IN THE CHECKBOX THAT SAYS CREATE FOLDER! If you do not, the file will be extracted wrong and will not work.
Click the folder with two dots. Click the folder with two dots again.
Now you need to navigate to where you want the file extracted to. Select the folder Android.
Now select the folder Data. Inside there you will see the file called com.tinyrebel.doctorwholegacy. That is the folder you want to replace so it forces Doctor Who Legacy to update to the newest level content.
Launch the game and play.
Note:
You can now access all the content that was ever released for Doctor Who Legacy. There are some cosmetic exceptions however. These include:
1. Two Tardis costumes
2. Pixel Rose Tyler costume
3. Three Martha Jones Pixel costumes
4. Two John Jones costumes
5. Three Vastra costumes
6. One Bessie Pixel costume
7. Two Third Doctor costumes
Some of these costumes were never released in an official capacity while others were released as limited time codes. With the servers down however, none of the codes can be redeemed any longer. The data should theoretically still be in the game but no one has developed a way to access it as of the year 2021.
It is also important to note that the story line for Doctor Who Legacy was never completed. Both the main campaign and Bigger on the Inside which only has one chapter, are left with plots unresolved.
Either way...enjoy this magnificent game.
