Pac-Man Plus DescriptionThe game is nearly identical to the original with only a few differences.Cabinet InformationThe enclosure is almost identical to the classic Pac-Man yellow cabinet, but the marquee is replaced with a more modern Pac-Man image with arms and legs. It proclaims itself as being "EXCITING NEW".Cheats, Tricks, Bugs, and Easter EggsCHEAT: This is the same cheat as the original Pac-Man. If you need to take a breather at the start of a screen, go right and immediately up so that you are inside the right corner of the "T" shape. Remain facing up and the ghosts will never find you.ANTI-CHEAT: It is impossible to work a pattern to clear the screen, as it done in the original Pac-Man, because a power pellet does not always turn all the ghosts blue. ConversionThe game can be converted back to Pac-Man with the proper ROMS and CPU.Game IntroductionThe programming is is a lot like Pac-Man except that the maze is outlined in green instead of blue. The prizes that appear in the middle of the maze are cans of Coke, cocktails, green beans, cakes, gift-wrapped boxes, etc. Whenever Pac-Man eats an energizer, the ghosts not only turn blue but they also get apple stems on their heads. On later levels, sometimes only three of the ghosts turn blue.Game PlayThe game plays exactly like the original except that there are various events (apparently selected at random) that may or may not occur after Pac-Man eats one of the four power pellets. These events include but are not limited to: the maze's structure becoming temporarily invisible, the ghosts turning invisible while they are blue, or only three of the four ghosts turning blue. The prizes in the middle of the maze can also act as a power pellet. Another difference is that later in the game the maze's structure becomes permanently invisible. The scoring system is exactly the same as in the original Pac-Man game.VAPS Arcade CensusThere are 6,993 members of the Video Arcade Preservation Society / Vintage Arcade Preservation Society, 4,022 whom participate in our arcade census project of games owned, wanted, or for sale.
