A fun unique puzzle game. In Dr. Mario you have to get rid of all
the viruses on screen. There are 3 different coloured viruses. Mario
will throw pills onto the screen which will fall down, and you will
have to move and flip them, and position them on the viruses. Each Pill
is separated into 2. Each side can have a different colour, or the same
colour. Lining up the same colour pills with the viruses will make them
disappear. This game can get harder and harder depending on the skill
level. There can get tons of viruses in a game and the speed can be
very fast.
There is also a 2 player mode, where 2 players compete at the same time
with the same set of pills and viruses.
Whoever gets rid of their viruses first wins the round. First to win 3
wins it all.
