Pac-Man is a maze game that was first released in the Arcade in 1980.
+ As long as you expect a very rough approximation of the original, there is some fun to be had with the altered maze layout.
+ Turn-based multiplayer mode is a great inclusion that enables two friends to battle for high score bragging rights.
- Rampant sprite flicker, making the last few moments of an energy pill nervy as it's tricky to tell when foes return to normal.
- Ghosts no longer have unique behaviours, which is a blow to strategic play for those who enjoy learning enemy patterns.
- Additionally, ghosts sometimes rush towards you instead of playing defensively when you have an energy pill.
- Has many graphical deviations from the Arcade, and all the charm and personality has been lost in translation.
