    It’s great to have Pac-Man back, even if it doesn’t bring any new to the table. Of course, it depends how many games you already own or care about.

    A well presented collection of some of the more interesting titles from the Pac-Man series. Not all of the best ones are included of course, but you can’t have everything.

    Pac-Man Museum + is a lot to chew on, as there are many upsides to this package. The selection is good, there’s plenty of replayability, the leaderboards are nice, and a few stand-out titles can be found within. Plus, you really can’t beat the entry price being so low. But sadly, it’s a package that is bogged down with a handful of control issues and a lack of options. In a collection celebrating a character via a customizable arcade, it’s unfortunate there isn’t as much care put into the customization of the player experience. Will I still be playing it often? Absolutely. A handful of these titles both promote Pac-Man’s historic legacy, while standing on their own. Others, however, get lost in a game that is ironically all about mazes.

    Pac Man Museum + is certainly packed full of arcade entertainment, but not all of its games were created equal.

    Pac-Man’s been through worse, like that Adam Sandler abomination I won’t mention again here. But it feels like gaming’s elder statesman deserves more recognition, and a better museum than this.

    Arcades are addictive; bright lights, flashing colours, and the endless endeavour to get that elusive high score.

Pac-Man is, of course, no stranger to arcade games, and has managed to stay surprisingly popular for a sentient pizza with an insatiable appetite. These games are often times a perfect example of the "one more try" idea, that you might finally get beyond a certain round, or take down a high score if you go for just one final game.

    From the cute customizable arcade you access all the games from to the instructions on the side of the screen while you play, the game focuses on really trying to give you that arcade feeling, and succeeds pretty well. Of course, there are some things you just can't replicate compared to an arcade, but perhaps these games get as close as they can. I do love this collection, though I do think that some more games could have been included. Seriously, where are any of the Pac-Man World games?
