  Which games can say that they have been/are accepted on just about all gaming platforms/consoles? Pac-Man is one of them! A link that held Nintendo, CDI or Sega as equals. Whether more modern or more classic versions of the game are better than the others I leave it up to you, it is always pleasant to hear these recognizable wobwobwob sounds again. Fortunately, these more modern versions of the original game give us endless opportunities to break our high scores that we once achieved.

  Did you know that the original name for Pac-Man was Puck-Man? You'd think it was because he looks like a hockey puck but it actually comes from the Japanese phrase 'Paku-Paku,' which means to flap one's mouth open and closed. They changed it because they thought Puck-Man would be too easy to vandalize, you know, like people could just scratch off the P and turn it into an F or whatever.

  This port stays true to the Arcade Cabinet game from the 90s... Avoid the ghosts, gather the Pac-Dots, drop ghosts with pellets, gather fruits!! I know, Pac-Man games are all weird like that. There's also a Save-State function and leaderboards! Challenge your friends, see if they can get a higher score than yours. 7/10 Pac-Man game from the 80s.

  that one peep from the Adam Sandler movie

  Pac-Man is generally considered amongst the "must-play" mighty greats, and I'm no opposer of such opinion. Pac-Man is great! Fuck yeah! Puck-Man! This is maybe the most straightforward & direct ports of the Pac-Man arcade machine on the market for PC users. It's hardly any different. I can respect that. But that therefore means it comes alongside with all the goods & bads of such. Controls feel smooth & responsive. They have that "rough" & "bulldozer" feel to it that I feel many other Pac-Man ports & sequels kinda sorta lacks. It's always been super hard to describe. But you don't exactly feel like a racecar, but more-so a plower, y'know. However, sadly, the game sadly lacks input-buffering, which overall creates some rare tedious moment late-game with its faster stages. And it's also sadly one of those Pac-Man ports wherein Power Cookies have shorter span times calculated by the higher level you are on. Now, I've always been a harsh opposer of such. That won't change. I hate it. It's not fun. Which is why I more-so tend to play Pac-Man through fan-ports & other unofficial versions, as they tend to not have that, luckily. ...Which I suppose is a smooth segway into recommending The FVGP's Pac-Man -- it's my favourite Pac-Man port. It's sadly, however, a browser exclusive port. It has input buffering, consistent Power Cookies, and generally looks a lot cleaner & smoother. Its biggest downside, really, is the lack of cut-scenes in-between certain levels & how the lives-counter breaks on certain monitor ratios. Anyways, I apologize for the subliminal shoutout to FVGP's Pac-Man 🙏

  Conslusion

  It's Pac-Man through-n'-through. I can hardly complain! It feels good, it plays good; but it's hardly the best one on the market nowadays. Still, I cannot NOT recommend it.

  It's on sale for a dollar and I'm pretty sure that's less than the total amount of quarters I've put into pac man machines in my lifetime and I'm not even a big pac fan. Makes me want to reevaluate how cheap we force these steam games to be before we'll buy them lol
