    Bland, terrible music, and lack of depth make this game a huge disappointment for fans of the series. You are better off playing the console version, or the GBA ones.

    Such a bad game, has too many glitches, rifes with invisible barriers, and there are only 4 levels through the whole game. Don't play unless you have a DS and are a World 3 fan. All other versions are way better, and this game is garbage.

    a lame excuse for everyone's favorite yellow circle. spend your good money on somethin good like mario kart ds. if your heart is set on pac-man, try pac'n'roll, much more enjoyable.

    This game has a terrible camera. If you were able to control the camera with the touch screen like in Mario 64 DS, it would have been okay. But this game is just a cheap port with no thought or care put into it.

    Suffers from one of the worst cameras in recent memory, killer slowdown and bland levels rife with invisible barriers. [Feb 2006, p.97]

    The technical ambition is overcome by nonsensical design and a general lack of creativity.

    While I commend Human Soft for packing in as much content as they could, the single-frame stills from the console and PSP movies are no substitute for the actual movie, and the total lack of voices, especially considering the amount of humorous Pac-Man and Orson banter, is just too detrimental to the overal presentation and gameplay experience.
