    If you're looking for a rewarding single-player Pac-man experience, this game probably isn't it, although if you have some friends and family to play with, this game is a blast on the Steam Link. The clever combination of endless runner and the original Pac-Man formula results in a fresh, exciting, local co-op experience that the whole family can enjoy.

    Endless Arcade game of Pac-Man that is a lot of fun, but has its struggles like getting poor random placement of red ghosts later on. It can increase the frustration. No ads helps the game a lot from the Android version. The extra power ups can enhance the experience, but it takes hours upon hours to unlock them. I'd much rather play this than a lot of other Pac-Man iterations.

    I don't think there's a gamer out there who hasn't heard of PAC-MAN. PAC-MAN 256 is a game built upon a legendary level 256 from the original game. It features themes that allow you to tweak the game's appearance, power-ups, and more. Of course, the ultimate objective of the game is to rack up that high score.

    If the game had come with more variation it might have made things a little different but in its current form, Pac-Man 256 just doesn't have enough new material to keep it entertaining for very long. Then again, for five bucks, you probably can't expect much more.

    A solid re-take on the classic Pac-Man concept, now with infinite scrolling levels and extra-glitchyness. Despite having multiplayer and free skins on consoles and PC, the game feels repetitive and samey. If you are looking for a more interesting modern variation of Pac-Man, you are better off with the Championship Edition.
