A downloadable game for Windows, Linux, and Android

Doctor Dandroid is a comedy slice-of-life visual novel that focuses on an incompetent doctor of androids who is trying to do his best in a largely post-apocalyptic future.

Using a state-of-the-art android repair dynascope that Dandroid himself has fixed with junk parts taken from dumpsters, you will help him 'fix' patients by matching up blocks of the same type on the dynascope's hover panel vis a match-three block-breaking game on ice.  Be careful though, because if either a circuit or a cell crosses its center beam, the block will change types, throwing a cog in even the most carefully made plans.

Current Progress: 6/16 planned patients.



  • Around 5 hours of total content.  (Roughly 1/3rd of what is currently planned.)
  • A free-play mode that unlocks after the tutorial for people who are less interested in the plot.
  • A node-based story selection system, allowing you to revisit your favorite sections with ease.
  • A cast of 19 unique and charming characters that can appear when you least expect them.
  • 18 block-breaking 'surgery' levels. Plus 3 additional tutorial levels to get you introduced to the game.
  • Over a dozen unlockables.

A cool mix of genres, the characters are really wacky... I'm onboard. More Dr Dandroid! :)

Thanks for the comment and video.  There should be an update to the game soonish but I'm a horribly slow writer so I'm already like five months behind where I expected to be.

You'll get faster as you write more, it's a process. It's like surgery, you don't just become a super surgeon right away. Can't wait to see how things progress. :)
