And the Man in the Pac said ‘Everyone attack!’
The natural point of comparison here isTetris 99, a Switch Online freebie with a comparable gimmick.
The two games even feature similar UI elements.

Some were decidedly more successful than others.
You’re dropped into a typicalPac-Manmaze with four ghosts, the same as it ever was.
That makes the entire experience feel significantly more random than I’d argue it should.

That’s not the same thing as it being bad, though.
It’s got the same just-one-more-round addictiveness asTetris 99,but doesn’t exert the same grip.
It’s essentially a new game in nostalgic wrapping paper.

I spent most of my weekend on it, but the petty annoyances do stack up.
