I remember playing this game with Crossy Road on the phone for a while. Really fun Pac Man game.

Genuinely just fun, just simple fun, great to tab in and out of. Wouldn't recomend like grinding for hours on it or something. You should have made this the Apple Arcade edition of the game

If you played the mobile version of this game, this is pretty much the same thing, except ad-locked rewards are fully free, premium themes are unlocked, and there's multiplayer too (woohoo!). I'd recommend you to wait for the game to go on sale, but you should totally check it out if you want something to play in your breaks.

Pac-Man + the Crossy Road developer = A fun Pac-Man endless runner type game. Most of the power-ups are offensive but there are a few defensive ones and a few that help you rack up your score faster. Overall, I think the power-ups are a great addition to the Pac-Man formula. I originally played this game back in 2017 and got 7/10 achievements. I finally came back to it 9 years later and ground out the last 3...

Maintains the essence of the original Pac-Man game whilst introducing new things to do. This one gets a thumbs up.
