1983 Spectrum Games (UK)
by Adrian Sherwin and Ian Robinson

Well I have been looking for this game for a long time now and I wish I never had found it. My memories were a lot greater than the game actually is.
To be honest the game plays averagely well, the sprites are big and colourful and for 83 it was a good enough rendition of Pac Man. Today it seems quite obsolete.
The difference between levels is the speed, the addiction of an extra ghost and after the 9th level it maintains the nine ghosts.
I think it could have been a better substitute for the coming 1984 Pac Man if only the levels had some other differences, like colours, mazes and fruits. But that would have looked too close to the original and without copyrights wouldn't be wise.
