I love this game. It's just so addicting. Maybe that's why it features pills. It's really simple and it's quite similar to Tetris, another great game. You have to destroy viruses by matching up 3 of the pill that matches the colour of the virus. There was a lot of puzzle games on the GB, Mario and Yoshi, Tetris, ect. but this is my favourite puzzler. One thing I find strange is the fact that the title has an X under the doctor. I noticed this is also the case on Motley Crue's album Dr. Feelgood. If you love puzzlers, this is worth a look.

Graphics- 7/10- Basic, but great, works better in a GBC

Game play- 10/10- Excellent. Simple, but really addicting. It's fun to attempt the last levels

Sound- 8/10- Some nice retro tunes, which were transferred into Dr Mario Puzzle League

Value- 8/10- Multiplayer mode, and it's really addicting. You will return to it I swear.

I think this is better than Tetris, so sue me.
