Anecdotes: Mario is back and he’s now a quack. He’ll throw in the pills and rack up the kills. He’s racking up the wealth as he destroys our health. He’ll check the beat of our hearts as he races go-karts. He’d help beat the flu if he only had a clue.
Description: Like the game of Connect Four, players must attach capsules of the same color in lines of at least four to remove them off the screen. If a virus is part of the line, it gets removed, too. The object is to remove every virus off the screen.
Positives: Uhhh…..
Negatives: It’s a Tetris knockoff, but for whatever reason, it’s nowhere near as interesting. There’s no scoring for anything besides killing bugs. Even on “HI” speed, the game feels slow. It’s just a boring play.

Final Opinion: Skip this. For those that want a more fun puzzle game, play Tetris.
Grade: D
