Good Dr. Mario port for 99 cents
If you have 99 cents to spend and you love Dr. Mario, this is a good app to get.
Pros:
* Good adaptation of Dr. Mario
* Decent graphics
* Good music
Cons:
* Poor controls (button instead of swipe-based)
* Buggy
It's ok
Not the nest but not the worse
Awful
I wouldn't recommend this game. Bad controls, childish graphics... It seems extremely unfinished and overpriced dr the quality
Booooo!!!
Wow, what a dissapointment.You can't keep score or play computer/other players. What's the point of playing? Where's the home screen? No options either?!?
Old graphics were better
I liked the old blocky graphics of DrSan better personally (and wish I knew how to un-upgrade), but the game is still good even though the backwards flipping of the half-pill thing is jarring.
needs improvement
This app is a pretty accurate port of the original Dr. Mario for NES but has many drawbacks.
For one I think it was a mistake to use on screen direction pad and rotate button for moving pieces. Tetris for iPhone already solved this problem by using touch to move pieces and tapping the left or right side fo the screen to rotate. I think that would work beautifully with Dr. Mario.
I also believe the game needs to have some sort of score and global high score so there is some replay value. In addition a multiplayer mode over the internet or over a local network would be great complete with block dropping on the opponent for combos like in the original game.
I think some settings would be useful too to change the speed and level, and handicap (if multiplayer) just like the original.
Dr. Mario is my favourite video game of all time so an iPhone port of it would really be nice, but this game feels really imcomplete in its current state.

This cool I hope the update will make it better. But I don't like the sound that the bottom butten makes.
Nice Dr. M knock-off
For a first version, not to bad. Price is a little high for what is in essence a beta application ready for limited public testing.
I hope the next version is closer to the great functions and game play of the classic Dr. M.
So until then, enjoy.
