Pac-Man is a maze game that was first released in the Arcade in 1980.
+ Different coloured ghosts have unique behaviours, which is great for learning patterns and outsmarting them.
+ Tunnels are an inspired feature for a quick escape and the limited energy pills turn the tide for a riveting ghost chase.
+ Collectable fruit adds an enticing risk-reward element, as the huge point bonuses mean venturing into perilous territory.
- While the decision to crop the screen does make sense, it doesn't always scroll far enough ahead to spot incoming ghosts.
- Alternatively, you can choose to display the entire maze, but it has the downside of unresponsive d-pad movements.
- No difficulty customisation options, and despite the maze being intricately designed it's the only one available.
