Gameplay
Dr. Luigi is a falling block tile-matching video game and offers four distinct game modes. The first, "Retro Remedy", is played using the traditional rules of Dr. Mario. In "Operation L", two different capsules, joined together to create L-shaped configurations, are dropped into the playing field at a time. "Retro Remedy" and "Operation L" are each available in single-player and competitive multiplayer modes. "Virus Buster", a game mode that was featured in Dr. Mario Online Rx, is played by holding the Wii U GamePad vertically and using the touchscreen to drag the capsules via a drag and drop interface. "Online Battle" offers online multiplayer via Nintendo Network.
The game was released at the end of Nintendo's Year of Luigi promotion.
Reception
Dr. Luigi's reception from critics was average, having a Metacritic score of 65/100 based on 38 reviews.
Scott Thompson of IGN rated the game as "good" (7.5/10). He praised the game's additions to the Dr. Mario formula, particularly the "Operation L" gameplay mode. Thompson highlighted the music remixes and online connectivity, but found its actual matchmaking and two-player limit for each match lackluster.
