In 1982, a sequel to the incredibly popular Pac-Man was introduced in the form of his girlfriend, Ms. Pac-Man. This sequel continued on the "eat the dots/avoid the ghosts" gameplay of the original game, but added new features to keep the title fresh. Like her boyfriend, Ms. Pac-Man attempts to clear four various and challenging mazes filled with dots and ever-moving bouncing fruit while avoiding Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Sue, each with their own personalities and tactics. One touch from any of these ghosts means a loss of life for Ms. Pac-Man. Ms. Pac-Man can turn the tables on her pursuers by eating one of the four Energizers located within the maze. During this time, the ghosts turn blue, and Ms. Pac-Man can eat them for bonus points. The Energizer power only lasts for a limited amount of time, as the ghost's eyes float back to their center box, and regenerate to chase after Ms. Pac-Man again. Survive a few rounds of gameplay, and the player will be treated to humorous intermissions showing the growing romantic relationship between Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man, leading all the way up to the arrival of "Junior".

Played at NQ64 in Manchester.

Game still slaps. I don't think you can beat, but I got the high score at the arcade.

(9-year-old's review, typed by his dad)

Pac-Man has a girrrrrlfrieeend, ooooooohh. What's the difference between this and just regular Pac-Man? I couldn't find a difference. I'm pretty good at Pac-Man. And I have an idea for a cereal called "Pac-Man Dots", and it's gonna be like one of those 90s kids that like on the TV, the advertisements that pop up, but they forgot to write the paperwork to put Pac-Man in the commercial, so they got sued, so it's out of business. (chuckles) This is not real.

My favorite arcade game. It’s a better more refined version of the original PAC-MAN. Changes such as level progression and moving fruits make this game my go to classic arcade game.

Played as a child at a Pizza Ranch in Spirit Lake, Iowa, I believe it was. Not much different from regular Pac-Man, but the little deviations from the original were nice. I will not be returning to this game, the conventional Pac-Man games are not for me.

man I love [DATA EXPUNGED] it keeps the general formula of the first game while making it fresh with new mazes and other stuff

it’s too bad she [scene missing]
