Because of the Atari days of the internet, somehow everyone ended up with a copy of the terrible Froggie and with Eric Wolz's version of Pac-Man. But what about a version called "Pack Man" which is apparently from 1991? You know, just before Windows 95 put the final nail into everyone else's coffin?
Yes, you're right! It was a great segué, thank you very much. Whelp, it reminds me a little too much of the gameplay of another video game toothache known as Pushy Pig. HOWEVER... and this is a big however, there is one aspect of this game that I do like. Wouldn't really work with regular Pac-Man, but what the hell. As the Pac-Man-like avatar in "Pack Man" you get three lives, with 100 energy points. There's two "ghosts". They don't kill you outright, but they do slowly sap away your energy points. But what WILL kill you outright is if the two "ghosts" touch each other! It brings an extra dimension of thought to the game play... even though it still kinda sucks. But I'll try to plow past level 4 one of these days, I promise.
