Game Details:

In "Dr. Mario," Mario transforms into a doctor, and players need to control the falling pills to align them with viruses of the same color in order to eliminate them. Matching three or more pills with viruses eliminates them. As the levels increase, the number of viruses increases, and the speed also increases, gradually increasing the challenge. The game tests both reaction speed and logic and strategy. With its relaxing music and cute art style, it is one of the most popular puzzle game representatives on the FC platform.


Editor's Recommendation:

If you like "Tetris" or similar elimination games, then "Dr. Mario" is definitely worth a try. The game has a flexible pace and allows you to set different difficulty levels, making it very suitable for relaxing your mind during fragmented time. The operation is simple but challenging. The combination of the thrill of eliminating viruses and Mario's iconic style makes this game not only suitable for children, but also for adult players to revisit the classics.


Game Walkthrough:

  • Initial planning is crucial: The initial layout determines the space for subsequent operations, try to place the pills neatly to avoid accumulation.
  • Prioritize eliminating central viruses: Clear viruses near the center first to free up space for left and right movement.
  • Be careful with color matching: Do not easily place the wrong color, otherwise it will increase the difficulty of processing; plan the landing point in advance.
  • Make good use of vertical elimination: Vertical elimination is more efficient than horizontal elimination, especially when space is limited, it is safer.
  • Master the acceleration skills: When the pills fall quickly, you can use the acceleration key to quickly descend and improve efficiency, but control it accurately.
  • Challenge level by level: It is recommended to start from low speed and low level to gradually adapt to the rhythm. The later difficulty is higher and requires accumulating experience.
