It would have been nice to see more thought put into the presentation, but fans of the series will feel right at home with this familiar layout.
All in all, I think Dr. Luigi is fun call back to an NES classic, with just enough spin put on the original formula to make it feel fresh again.

I play this game on my Wii U whenever I need a challenging game to kill time while waiting for a large file to download on my computer or something like that. Even when I don't have this task, I still play this game every day because it is very satisfying.

I like this game better than ALL the Dr Mario series combined cause this one has my 2nd favorite character Luigi. The gameplay is great and the music is good and doesn't get repetitive to much.

Changing characters can bring new stimulation but in the case of Dr. Luigi, virtually nothing else differs when compared to the latest Dr. Mario. A fun and competent effort using very familiar mechanics but which will fail to impress those looking for something fresh and new.
Dr. Luigi does everything his brother does, but sadly not much more. The new modes do nothing to spice up this aging series' formula, and I really doubt they will be enough to justify a purchase for even the most diehard fan.
The two new modes are alternatives to the classic game (Retro Remedy), but with the exception of Germ Buster, the Operation G is not as strong as we thought , creating difficulties that are not always compatible with the nature of the challenge. Incidentally, the two new modes offer some resilience in an attempt to stand out from the classic game.
Just leave this puzzle game alone, it's not nice to play. The Dr. Mario games from the past were so much fun and so much better. This one isn't worth its money.
Dr Luigi is a solid example of the Tetris-like puzzler, but doesn't do anywhere near enough to justify the price of admission.
This game makes a great time filler and mind bender. Online multiplayer is very competitive and intense, graphics are great for what the game is, and the songs and sounds are fun and add to the feel of the game. I've heard an occasional glitch in the songs where the song wiggs out and repeats or skips, or plays two songs at once, and local multiplayer leaves just a little something to be desired (a score keeper or a co-op mode of some sort would have been awesome, as many multiplayer matches in a row can become a bit stale since it doesn't keep track of wins/losses). Overall great game.

Dr. Luigi is an equal amount of fun blasted with a boredom timer so you might know you're going to start getting bored of the game by any minute from your playtime.

This game is decent. It's not the best Wii U Game. The graphics are okay. The gameplay is good, you are supposed to match colours to kill the viruses just like the NES Classic Dr. Mario. The music is great. Dr. Luigi is a good game and it's worth checking out for $15 USD and if you hate Dr. Luigi, you're silly as JB.

No story mode like Dr. Mario 64 had. This title shows Nintendo clearly doesn't care about their games anymore. It seriously is a huge let down that nintendo can release unfinished games and use the excuse "we care about beginners, they would be overstimulated and put off by too much content".
RIP the video game company we have all grew fond off, Iwata has turned Nintendo into a monstrosity

Summary Much like the classic puzzle game Dr. Mario, Dr. Luigi requires you to line up color-coded pills to destroy viruses. Dr. Luigi offers different skill settings and attacks in multiplayer games, and an original mode where the pills are, of course, L-shaped. The game comes with a Dr. Mario mode, Wii U GamePad compatibility, and online play,...
