Level(s) 44
<< List of worlds >>

World 1 is a grassy-themed world in Dr. Mario World which serves as a tutorial for the game. Prior to playing a stage, Dr. Toad guides the player through a tutorial stage. The first area, or the first 20 stages give the player infinite hearts. Players start out with Dr. Mario, where players can obtain Dr. Peach or Dr. Bowser by stage 3. Players earn their first assistant, the Goomba, after beating Stage 5, as well as unlocking versus mode, staffing and the ability to add friends. Since version 2.0.0, skill summit is also unlocked and Dr. Toad is obtained as an extra doctor.

When areas are cleared, Toads of different colors appear, including purple, yellow, blue, green, and red. In the second area, Dorrie also appears after clearing it. The viruses featured in the regular stages are red, blue and yellow.

Area 1

Image Stage Overview
Stage 1 from Dr. Mario World since version 2.0.0 Stage 1 Starting with 20 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (17).

In this stage, there are three colors of viruses in groups.

Prior to version 1.3.5, this stage only has red viruses, and Empty Blocks exist. Additionally, the layout since that version had changed in version 1.4.0, and taken from version 1.4.0 of Stage 2 for version 2.0.0.

Stage 2 from Dr. Mario World since version 2.0.0 Stage 2 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (25).

This stage has gaps within the columns of red and blue viruses, along with yellow viruses in groups.

In the initial version of this stage, it only has red and blue viruses. Newer version of this stage has all three colors of viruses. In version 2.0.0, this stage's layout is moved to stage 1 while this stage has a new layout.

Stage 3 from Dr. Mario World since version 2.1.0 Stage 3 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (24). The only colors available in this stage are red and blue.

This stage introduces Brick Blocks, which are interspersed among the red viruses. Blue viruses are placed on the two leftmost and two rightmost columns. Since version 2.0.0, when players complete this stage, they can choose to be either Dr. Mario, Dr. Peach, or Dr. Bowser, rendering the other two unavailable after they have made their choice.

In the initial version of this stage, this was the first stage to have three colors of viruses (red, blue and yellow) along with empty blocks. In version 2.0.0, this stage's layout from a later version of this stage is moved to stage 2 while this stage is using a new layout. Prior to version 2.1.0, this stage layout was different, where three viruses of different colors were present.

Stage 4 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 4 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (16).

This stage introduces skill chargers, energy bottles that grant doctors a substantially-charged skill meter when activated.

In the initial version of this stage, there is a long column and row of yellow viruses, with the two other colors of virus to the left and right of the stage. A later version of this stage is the first stage to introduce skill chargers along with brick blocks, but since version 1.4.0, the stage layout changed in a way that brick blocks are not present.

Stage 5 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 5 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (33).

This stage has viruses arranged in rows and columns in pairs of identical colors, lined up alongside brick blocks and a couple empty blocks. Additionally, players are introduced to the rainbow capsule, which will appear as the capsule after the next one after making seven clears, as indicated by the rainbow meter at the sides of the stage. Since version 2.0.0, players are able to select different characters, play the versus mode and add friends, as well as obtain their first assistant, a Goomba.

In the initial version of this stage, this is the first stage to introduce Brick Blocks, blocks that are eliminated when an adjacent feature, such as viruses or pills, are destroyed. The current version of this stage's layout used the stage layout of stage 9 prior to version 1.4.0, but with the capsule amount reduced from 30 to 25.

Stage 6 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 6 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (19).

This stage introduces shells as stage features, objects that can eliminate items horizontally when activated.

In the initial version of this stage, this stage orients viruses and brick blocks horizontally as opposed to the vertical orientation of Stage 5. Since then, this stage is the first stage to introduce shells, with a later version of this stage in particular being shaped like an "M".

Stage 7 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 7 Starting with 20 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (24).

This stage has six shells in six rows: three on the left in line with viruses, and three on the left in line with brick blocks.

In the initial version of this stage, The stage orients viruses in a less consistent manner than previous stages, which also introduces empty blocks mixed in as obstacles. Rainbow capsules can be obtained in this level due to the increased number of matches required to obtain one. A later version of this stage has skill chargers alongside shells.

Stage 8 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 8 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (28).

This stage introduces Exploders, bombs that destroy objects in tiles adjacent to them when activated.

In the initial version of this stage, this stage introduces shells as stage features, objects that can eliminate items horizontally when activated. A later version of this stage continues using shells as a stage feature.

Stage 9 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 9 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (30). The only colors available in this stage are red and blue.

A stage where players can first obtain a fully charged skill meter, which lets doctors perform a special ability specific to them. Dr. Toad also gives a free Capsule+ item prior to starting this stage. This stage has red and blue viruses, along with a few exploders and brick blocks.

In the initial version of this stage, there are brick blocks and viruses along with a shell. The stage layout used in a later version of this stage is moved to stage 5 in version 1.4.0.

Stage 10 from Dr. Mario World since March 18, 2021. Stage 10 Starting with 30 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (26). The only colors available in this stage are red and blue.

In this stage, players have access to the rest of the items prior to starting a stage: the Skill Up, Rainbow Start, Score+, and Random!. The former three items are given a freebie each. By clearing this stage, this area of the world map gets cleared from viruses. This stage has viruses interspersed with two shells and an exploder.

After beating stage 10, the first half of Area 1 will be cleared of viruses, leaving the other half uncleared. Moreover, additional data will be downloaded where it must finish downloading before the player can proceed with the rest of the stages. Prior to version 2.0.0, when players complete this stage, they can choose to be either Dr. Mario, Dr. Peach, or Dr. Bowser.

In the initial version of this stage, viruses are arranged in rows, with brick blocks and empty blocks in the rows between the rows with viruses. A later version of this stage is shaped like a "10".

Prior to March 18, 2021, the stage layout was different. The following changes were made:

  • The available colors are changed to red and blue only.
Stage 11 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 11 Starting with 23 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (28).

In this stage, there are shells and red viruses in the middle column, with each shell being blocked off by an empty block on either the left side or the right side. Blue and yellow viruses are found on the two leftmost columns and two rightmost columns. Brick blocks are also found throughout the stage.

Prior to version 1.3.5, this stage has skill chargers, and in the initial version is also the first stage to introduce them. Since version 1.3.5, this stage is changed to have shells in the middle column, along with empty blocks beside each shell. Since version 1.4.0, the empty blocks in the fourth row are changed to brick blocks.

Stage 12 from Dr. Mario World since version 2.0.0 Stage 12 Starting with 20 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (20). The only color available in this stage is red.

This stage consists of red viruses arranged in a knot, alongside brick blocks and empty blocks.

In the initial version of this stage, this is the second stage to have a Skill Charger, with viruses in more varied positions. Prior to version 1.4.0 there are viruses and brick blocks only. In version 1.4.0, the stage layout has changed and a shell is added. This stage is revamped in version 2.0.0.

Stage 13 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 13 Starting with 20 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (11).

In this stage, there are a lot of exploders and brick blocks. Two of the viruses are partially surrounded by brick blocks.

In the initial version of this stage, three colors of shells appear in this stage, which need to be individually activated to remove viruses horizontal of it. A later version of this stage only has one shell but more viruses. Since version 1.4.0, this stage has fewer viruses and more exploders.

Stage 14 from Dr. Mario World since version 2.0.0 Stage 14 Starting with 25 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (7).

In this stage, there are four groups of viruses separated into four sections by brick blocks.

In the initial version of this stage, this stage features long rows and columns of viruses and brick blocks, with two shells on the upper left region. A previous version of this stage features exploders. Since version 1.4.0, this stage has two colors of viruses and exploders. This stage is revamped in version 2.0.0.

Stage 15 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 15 Starting with 20 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (19). The only colors available in this stage are blue and yellow.

In this stage, the shells, exploders and viruses are in a checkered pattern, with brick blocks in between them.

In the initial version of this stage, this stage introduces exploders. A later version of this stage takes the layout from the initial version of stage 16. Since version 1.4.0, this stage is revamped to have only two colors of viruses (blue and yellow), along with adding shells.

Stage 16 from Dr. Mario World since version 1.4.0 Stage 16 Starting with 30 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (26).

In this stage, there is a group fo viruses surrounded by brick blocks and empty blocks. A shell outside this group is in the same row as two exploders in that group.

In the initial version of this stage, this stage has long rows of viruses and brick blocks, with two exploders that need only a half capsule to be activated. In a previous version of this stage, the stage is revamped so that there is a shell in line with two exploders. Since version 1.4.0, the capsule amount is increased from 20 to 30, and the colors of an exploder and a virus are changed to match the virus below and exploder above them, respectively.

Stage 17 from Dr. Mario World since March 18, 2021 Stage 17 Starting with 30 capsules, the objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses (32).

This stage has Dr. Toad giving players a free boomerang, a special item that clears the selected row. In this stage, there are four rows of viruses, where two of them each have an exploder and one has a shell. The only colors available in this stage are red and blue.

In the initial version of this stage, this stage introduces viruses hidden in brick blocks, which get revealed when the block is destroyed. A previous of this stage increases the capsule amount from 25 to 30. In version 1.3.5, a few more viruses are not inside brick blocks and an exploder is added to the stage.

This stage has Dr. Toad giving players a free Capsule Swapper, a special item that allows the player to substitute the current capsule with a capsule of their choice. This stage is shaped like a heart formed by red viruses and exploders with a blue shell in the topmost row, where they are surrounded by Brick Blocks that contain hidden viruses, shells and an exploder.

In a previous version of this stage, the capsule amount is increased from 15 to 25. The Capsule Blaster was given by Dr. Toad prior to version 1.4.0, which eliminates all capsules currently in the stage. Since version 1.4.0, the stage is revamped and included more viruses, but only two shells and one exploder (previously more exploders were included).

When cleared, the rest of the first area in the world map gets cleared of viruses. Additional data gets downloaded when the stage gets cleared, and players do not have infinite hearts past this point. Since version 2.0.0, Dr. Toad is obtained (players who beaten this stage prior to this update will obtain him through their doc box) and skill summit is unlocked.

The changes for this stage before version 1.4.0 reduced the amount of hidden viruses from 51 (initial version) to 47 (version 1.0.4) to 43 (version 1.2.0).
