Dr. Cares is a time management game that centers around pet care. There is a tutorial at the beginning of the first level which explains how the game works.
Customers order and pay for products. When a customer is waiting to pay you will see an image of bills and coins. The higher the customer happiness, the greater the price paid. Customers with three coins next to the money stack are ecstatic and are paying the highest amount. When a customer becomes mad, no coins will be beside the money. A very angry customer will have a thunder cloud beside their head.
Doing the same action twice or three times in a row (combo or chain) will help you achieve higher scores. Combos can be earned by having two or three orders prepared on your tray, and serving them to the customers without an interruption to do another task. If you serve two in a row, you get a bonus of +10 and a bonus of +15 for three customers in a row. Checking out two in a row gets a bonus of +15; three in a row will gain a bonus of +30. Clean two stations in a row for a bonus of +10; cleaning three in a row earns a bonus of +15. You will earn a bonus of +10 for serving a complete order of two or three products to a customer. There is also a "clean stations" bonus of +100 that can be earned at the end of the level if all your stations are clean or being cleaned before you check out your last customer.
How to remove an product from your tray: If you make a mistake and put something on your tray that you don't need, click on it and it will be removed from the tray.
The score for the story levels is measured in one, two, or three stars, depending on the amount of points you earn. You will win the level as long as you earn one star. The challenge levels have a set amount that must be met, without the option of earning more than one star.
Tip: If you struggle to reach three stars on a level, try lowering the difficulty for that level.
Mini Games
Many of the medical actions performed will require a mini game. The first time the game occurs, there is a walk through of it. The faster you complete the mini game, the more tip you will earn.
Challenges and Challenge Levels:
All levels have a challenge to be completed, and there are challenge levels to complete. Challenges don't have to be completed in the regular story levels, but add points if you do complete it. Each challenge completed, whether in a challenge level or story level, earns a diamond.
Tip: Sometimes you can't both complete a challenge and get three stars in a story level. If this happens, you can play the level twice: once to complete the challenge and once to reach three stars
Carl the Mouse:
The mouse will appear in every story level. He will make a squeaky sound, and will appear for a few seconds. Clicking on him will give you a bonus 100 points. I have included a screen shot of his location for every level.
Upgrade Screen
Each location has an upgrade screen which appears before each level. Here you can buy upgrades of your equipment. Click on the object and it will tell what bonus the upgrade will give.
Upgrade money comes from winning the levels: +50 for each star earned on each story level.
Tip: You can complete the first clinic without needing all the upgrades, so save your money for the second location and you can buy most of the upgrades right at the beginning.
Diamonds are earned by completing the challenges, and are used to buy pets and furnish the pet room. You will earn the Cat trophy for purchasing all the items.
Trophies
Trophies, in the form of characters in a picture, are earned for various tasks and for completing levels.
To earn the Newton trophy, you have to have chosen the best ending for all the stories. If you don't earn it, you will need to replay the game until you have chosen all the best endings.
