How it plays
How does Mr. Do! play?
The game uses a fixed single-screen maze viewed from above. Mr. Do moves through soil, leaving tunnels behind him, while monsters enter the cleared paths and attempt to make contact.
Players clear screens by collecting the cherries or eliminating the monsters with the power ball and strategically dropped apples. Digging changes the routes available to both sides, so movement and timing are central. Later stages increase enemy pressure and make falling apples more hazardous. The main mode is a sequence of progressively difficult arcade-style screens, with score and remaining lives providing the long-term progression.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Mr. Do!?
Plan escape routes before breaking through large soil sections, since monsters can follow the tunnels you create.
Use apples as hazards when several enemies are below them, but avoid standing underneath unstable apples. Save the power ball for moments when an enemy blocks a narrow route or threatens to cut off your exit.
