Game InformerThe animation is solid, and there's a plot to boot. [Aug 2002, p.79]
-
Play MagazineIt's no "Mario Party," but it is a fun romp through an abbreviated Namco Universe. [Aug 2002, p.71]
-
Takes a good idea and executes it in a mediocre way.
-
Just another shallow party game.
-
The very definition of ‘AVERAGE’ (which is what the number ‘5’ represents in our review scale), “Pac-Man Fever” neither diminishes or improves on the “Mario Party” formula set in stone back in ’99 by Hudson Soft.
-
GameNowIsn't bad - it's just not that great. It's good for a couple plays, but not much more. [Sept 2002, p.32]
-
PSM MagazineThis is a game that, as its title aptly implies, you can quickly get sick of. [Oct 2002, p.40]
-
Pac’s newest adventure involves playing cheesy boards and minigames with his sappy friends (obviously his wife’s pals), who look like they hopped out of a Barney video.
-
Without even a hint of fun multiplayer competition, you and your friends will certainly catch an unfavorable fever caused by a dismal showing of Pac-Man Fever.
-
This is the kind of plague that should see Pac-Man quarantined and approached only by trained disease control experts in the shelter of a hazardous materials suit.
-
Feels as if it's beneath the once-great franchise.
-
Official U.S. Playstation MagazinePac-Man Fever will drive you neither crazy nor out of your mind. [Sept 2002, p.116]
-
Party game gone to hell thanks to its poor execution.
-
Electronic Gaming MonthlyThis is a snore-fest made all the more yawnsome when you discover you have to watch the computer players take their turns in their geriatric entirety. [Oct 2002, p.194]
