Your goal is to kill all the viruses in the jar.

Comments on Dr. Marioldo's Virus World for Android
★★★★☆Kristin Rickey· Feb 17, 2026
Fun game, awful controls. This is very similar to the original Nintendo game, which is awesome, but the controls are terrible. You can only rotate the pill clockwise, which makes the latter levels even trickier, and the movement keys are towards the middle of the screen, which doesn't allow for easy two-handed playing. Fun game overall, though!
★★★★★Aryan Agarwal· Jan 10, 2024
This game is nice! It's like it returned my childhood! The music are great! I'm so happy!!😄. It's like the best game ever!! Thanks for making and working so hard in this game! But can you improve the game a bit. Can you change the background light blue instead of yellow? I really want a light blue background in the whole game. (In title screen and even if playing) I love the game very much!
★★★★☆Lois Adams· Jan 6, 2024
Really liked the game. If you like Dr. MARIO growing up, you will love this game. Would have given 4 stars if it had an option for a down button too.
★★☆☆☆Eric Connolly· Jul 18, 2022
Was good for a week. Bought non ad version, and now it's been stuck on load screen so unplayable now.
★★☆☆☆April Hendricks· Jun 27, 2025
It won't save my score... what's the point of I can't get a high score
★☆☆☆☆infinitemartialist· Jul 3, 2026
So... went from highly rated to absolute failure with the latest update. The classic controller scheme was removed to be replaced with tap and drag anywhere on the screen. Problem: drag isn't very responsive or precise, so it makes playing the higher levels dang impossible and the overall experience not at all fun. I played this game several times a week to relax. Now it seems it's headed for the app scrap heap because developers just decided to again try to fix something that wasn't broken
★★☆☆☆Carrie Wallis· May 26, 2024
The controls are hard to reach, there's no quick drop so the game takes forever waiting for the pieces to fall. This would be better if you could tap to rotate and swipe left or right to move and swipe down to quick drop. If the controls were better I would have kept the game.
