Dr. Mario Vitamin Toss was an online Flash game published by Nintendo to advertise Dr. Mario & Puzzle League for the Game Boy Advance. It was available to play on the game's official website,[1] as well as in the Nintendo Arcade section of nintendo.com.[2][dead link] The game departs from the puzzle-driven gameplay of the Dr. Mario series, but nevertheless still has in view defeating viruses using Megavitamins.
Gameplay
There are three viruses—blue, yellow and red—standing in front of vials containing fluid of corresponding colors. Using Megavitamin pills, Dr. Mario has to defeat these viruses by draining the fluids inside their corresponding vials. To decrease the fluid inside a vial, he has to throw a pill of the same color as the fluid.
At the top of the screen, there is a "Toss Meter" with colored spots that reflect the positions of the vials. To throw a pill somewhere, the player has to initiate a sliding cursor on the Toss Meter, then stop it over a certain spot. If the cursor lines up with a spot of the same color as a vial's fluid, Dr. Mario lands a pill into that vial. Should the color of the pill match with the fluid insuide the vial, it decreases it, otherwise the fluid increases or stays unaffected when the vial is already full. If the cursor is stopped on a blank space in-between the colored spots, Dr. Mario misthrows a pill outside the vials.
Four pills are necessary to drain all the fluid inside a vial and defeat the corresponding virus, though the virus can be revived if the wrong pill is tossed in its vial afterwards. To win the game, all three viruses need to be dead at the same time. The end screen shows the time it took the player to beat the game and offers them to replay it or visit the "Dr. Mario / Puzzle League" website.
