Dr. Kodama is a fun puzzle game inspired by the classic SNES game Dr. Mario. Connect four dots of the same color to disappear them. Once all Kodama (the dots with the funny faces) have been removed, you've beat the level. Simply drag left or right or down to move the falling piece. Tap to rotate the piece counter-clockwise. Finally, you can swipe up to immediately drop the piece.
