Skill Summit
Skill Summit is a game mode where players work with mentor doctors to clear Summits of varying difficulty to obtain rewards and limited-time power boosts for Stage Mode.
Overview[ ]
The Skill Summit screen show which doctors are the current mentors and the difficulty levels the player can choose: Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, and Special. Each difficulty level will also show the item rewards and limited-time power boosts (which can stack) that will activate when all the Summits within it are cleared. Summits within each difficulty level must be cleared in order, starting from the first one.
In Special Summits, only specific doctors can be used. If the player doesn't have one of the eligible doctors, they can't play the summit. However, throughout the Summit round duration, referral packs will be available in the Shop for purchase using Diamonds.
Summits are available in rounds, and each round lasts for two weeks. When the round ends, the mentor doctors and Summits will change, and kudos will be reset.
Kudos[ ]
Kudos is the Summit version of Clear Stars in Stage Mode. It basically works the same way though; clearing a Summit will reward up to 3 kudos depending on the final score upon clear, and each kudos also awards 
Coin x50 the first time the player achieves that kudos on a Summit.
Instead of unlocking Medals, Kudos unlocks rewards for the Summit round. Rewards can include mentor doctors.
Gameplay[ ]
Gameplay is somewhat similar to Stage Mode in that it requires Hearts to attempt a Summit, the player must eliminate viruses with a limited number of capsules, and rewards 
Heart x1 for first clear. However, in a Summit, a mentor doctor will be playing alongside the player's doctor.
Mentor doctors[ ]
Summit rounds will feature certain doctors as mentors. Each Summit is presented by one of these doctors, and they help out with their skill. The player cannot use the same character as the mentor when attempting a Summit. This includes variants of the character too, for example, 
8-Bit Dr. Mario can't be used on a summit presented by 
Dr. Mario.
Mentors have a different kind of skill meter that charges when the player moves a capsule into the play area. Once their skill meter is charged, the player must tap to activate it before being able to use the next capsule.
