You control PAC-MAN through maze stages, clearing every dot to advance. Four ghosts patrol the map and will chase or cut off your routes; touching one costs a life. Power pellets temporarily turn the ghosts vulnerable, letting you eat them for bonus points. As stages progress, the ghosts become faster and more dangerous, so success depends on route planning, timing, and learning each maze’s safe lanes.

The red ghost, known for direct and aggressive pursuit.

Pinky

The pink ghost, often trying to intercept from ahead.

Inky
