It was available to play on the game's official website,[1] as well as in the Nintendo Arcade section of nintendo.com.[2][dead link] The game departs from the puzzle-driven gameplay of the Dr. Mario series, but nevertheless still has in view defeating viruses using Megavitamins.
Gameplay
There are three viruses of different colors—blue, yellow and red—each standing beside a vial containing fluid of the same color. Dr. Mario has to defeat the viruses by draining their vials completely using Megavitamin pills.
To toss a pill somewhere, the player has to initiate a sliding cursor on a "Toss Meter" and stop it at a certain distance on that meter. If the cursor lines up with a colored spot on the meter, Dr. Mario lands a pill in the vial with fluid of the that color. In order to decrease the fluid in a vial, the player has to land a pill of the same color. A minimum of four pills are needed to fully drain a vial, but if they mismatch the color, the fluid inside the vial increases instead, reviving the corresponding virus if it is already dead. To win, all three viruses have to be dead simultaneously. The end screen shows the time it took the player to beat the game and offers them to replay it or visit the "Dr. Mario / Puzzle League" website.
