Story:
Pac-man doesn't have a story, just eating ghosts.
- - -
Gameplay:
The gameplay plays like the original Pac-Man, go around collecting Tic-Tacs and eating ghosts, the way to eat ghosts is getting the super Tic-Tac which glows. There are suppose to be 4 ghosts that chase after you but i could only see 2 of them. Honestly there is nothing left to say, it's a basic Pac-Man game. The controls are fine, you move around with the joystick and eat the Tic-Tacs through a maze like structure. The difficulty is sorta hard, the original game was hard because there are more enemies to avoid and the maze changes. The mazes in this game don't change much, they just have a differnet backround color.
- - -
Graphics:
The graphics a primitative, it doesn't look like Pac-Man but it is atari after all, you can tell what everything is, the only annoying graphic thing is the ghost, they just flicker and it's annoying to concentrate.
- - -
Music/Sound:
The music is only present when you start and when you end. The sound effects don't sound like a Pac-Man game, the original sounds like a wakka sound and this one is more of a boing sound.
- - -
Final Verdict:
The game is not as bad as people say it is. The gameplay is good, graphics are decent, sound is annoying, the difficulty is standard.

The thing is, for all the haters that hate this game (derp), how could you get Pac-Man onto the 2600 without flaws? I mean.... look at what you have to work with this here, its NOT much. Its a nice adaption despite its limitations.



Nice review BTW

It's a bit awkward playing Pac-Man for the Atari, but it's not like we'd expect anything less from an ancient gaming system like Atari 2600. It did the best it can do back then.

Also, great review, legogame! You did a good job sorting the categories with details. Keep it up!

FFFighterDill : This is easily my least favorite game on the system and one of the worst. How can you mess up the controls on pacman? Why do the sprites blink so bad? There's no doubt in my mind that this game could have been done 1000x times better on the 2600...Of course no one thought the graphics would be the same, but did the gameplay have to be as bad as it is? No. But instead they made the game as cheaply as they could and shot it out into the stores without much testing just so they could cash in.

Want proof that a Pacman game for the 2600 can be good? Play MS Pacman sometime on the system.
