While a ridiculous Pepsi advertisement more than anything else, Pepsiman turns out to be a decent game that kinda grows on you as you play it.
The game is an auto-runner, which is a genre you'll be familiar with if you've played games like Temple Run or Subway Surfers.
You have 4 stages and each stage is divided into 3 subsections (called scenes), so it ends up being relatively short. (Completed it in 3 hours)
You have limited lives, though luckily losing them means you begin at the start of a scene rather than the start of the stage.
Sometimes you may end up missing a checkpoint and combined with the fact you'll need to have split second reactions in plenty of cases, it ends up being quite tough. The last stage especially requires pretty much perfect timing.
Overall, it ticks a lot of the boxes of an arcade experience.
