A New Classic Board Game

Personally, I really love this game. At first, I was hesitant, because it’s not the old version with the four Pac-Men and marbles, which I loved when I was a kid. The pegs as pictured on the box just looked kind of boring. But, my 6-year old daughter, who is a fan of the classic video game via the Apple Store app kept begging for this, so I got it. I was pleasantly surprised, and, in fact, like this better than the old 80s version. My daughter also loves it, and we have played it a few times in the few days since it delivered. Here’s the breakdown:The gameplay really does a good job of replicating how things work in the video game, much better than the 80s version. The player(s) controlling the ghosts is/are somewhat forced by rules to move them in an erratic fashion, emulating the unpredictable movement in the video game. Seeing as this is the case, the player controlling Pac-Man has to be ultra-careful where/how he ends his turn, or he can quickly be caught. Ghost controllers have to plan thoughtfully, as, unlike the VG, they cannot move ghosts through each other unless they have been eaten and are in their “eyes” form. You can quickly get them jammed up so they can’t efficiently chase their quarry. And don’t stop the ghosts turn too close to Pac if he’s near a power pill! Pac-Man must also use careful strategy. He’s controlled by three dice, but the ghost-monsters move by shuffled, pre-printed numbers on cards— there’s an average max spaces, so try to stop your turn as far out of that max range as possible. When Pac-Man is caught, just once, that player’s turn as our favorite yellow pie man is over, he joins the players controlling the ghosts, the board is reset, and one of them gets a shot as Pac-Man. After everyone has controlled him, the player with the highest score wins. The three fruits also tend to appear at the most inconvenient moments, like the VG. They change out via fruit cards shuffled in with the ghost deck. Clear the whole board (not common) and you shuffle in the Level Two ghost movement cards, which give them a longer movement range to replicate a higher difficulty level. All very cool. The only con, which I feel is minor, is that the pegs have to be pushed up from under the board after Pac-Man is caught. One reviewer said he has to disassemble the whole board to do this, but I have not found that necessary. I just reach under each quadrant to do it before placing all the pawns back on the board. But you do have to be sure they are all up sufficiently so they don’t slip down again during play, which would cause the players to lose track of what PM needs to still clear, yet not TOO far up, or some may pop out. A bit of a pain, but considering how much fun this game is to play, I found it workable. You just need to take it slow and be patient! Initial setup installing all those pegs was also painfully tedious, but once they’re in they can stay in and you won’t have to ever do it again. So, the goodness greatly outweighs the cons, and overall, this board game is a blast that my family will play over and over for many years.PS: I forgot to mention the alternate play method offered in which Pac-Man has 3 lives, tracked by 3 markers, but you start with the Level 2 cards shuffled in from the beginning. More lives, but faster ghost-monsters! We haven’t tried this yet, but older or more advanced players may find this more interesting.

One of the popular game in our house

Kids love playing this game.

Just ok.

We play a lot of games in our house. A lot. We live games. This one was just alright. The premise is cute, the characters and pieces are cute…. But the actual execution of the game was just mehIt’s easy to win as ghosts, much much harder to win as pac man and the poking of the dots up and down in between each play was annoying

Long game

Instructions are complicated but once you figure it out, the game is quite enjoyable. It takes about 15 minutes to set up, and put away, with about 30 game sessions. It has continued to be worth the price throughout the time we've had it. The board requires some space, but playing on the floor works fine. There are stickers, so if you're picky about how they look, make sure you do the first time setup yourself. There is also Pacman sounds that play when you move the Pacman piece. The sound quality is weak but gets the point across and sounds accurate to the arcade game.
