PAC-MAN, the yellow 80?s icon with a voracious appetite that has transcended generation upon generation of gamers, stars in this nostalgia-packed collection of games.

The ghostly mayhem breaks out of the PAC-MAN formula and features an over-the-top experience for up to four players with each player controlling a PAC-MAN character to gobble up pellets, fruits and best of all? each other. Players will chomp their way to victory through fast-paced maze action with the constant threat of both ghosts and opposing PAC-MAN characters around every corner.
