Ms. Pac-Man is a maze game that was originally released in the Arcade in 1982 as the sequel to Pac-Man (1980, Arcade).
+ New two-player modes open up the gameplay for real longevity, especially as you can battle competitively or in co-op.
+ Difficulty curve is much more gradual than the Atari 5200 version (1983), and the ghost A.I. is particularly impressive.
+ Bonus fruits return, but this time with the treacherous twist of bouncing around the playfield to raise the suspense.
- Sluggish controls are unreliable, as your inputs don't always register when attempting to quickly turn a corner.
- Gameplay stops after Level 32 and without an Endless mode high score chasers might feel shortchanged.
- No option to have the entire maze visible, and the Pac Booster is rather pointless as it barely increases your speed.
