Gameplay
Pac-Man works his way around a maze eating up little yellow dots and fruit. When all the dots have been eaten, the level is compete. Pac-Man must avoid four ghosts who pursue him, Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde. If Pac-Man comes into contact with any of these ghosts he looses his life, unless he eats the Energizers found on each level. There are four in total. With the help of the Energizers Pac-Man can eat the ghosts, but only for a limited amount of time.Arcade History: Pac-Man-
