Coming from someone who hasn't finished the original game but played it several times, this feels so much better than the original in so many ways; the updated graphics, the better control, the improved boss fights, the difficulty balance and more make it feel like an improved Pac-Man World experience! Though there are some changed aspects that I disagree on (like the awkward sound design and re-arranged songs, the frame rate drops on Switch, the Ms. Pac-Man copyright escapist member being present in her place, the removed vocals and other things) and other aspects of the original that didn't age well (specifically the camera), this is a great remake and one of the best things to happen to Pac-Man in all these years. Surprisingly, I won my own copy from Pac-Man himself! (i won the game through the official Pac-Man Instagram)

100%ed the game: all of the Pac-Family rescued, all collectibles found (all keys, maze gates, and PACMAN letters), and all mazes cleared.
