Classic NES Series - Pac-Man ROM

Discover the Classic Arcade Legend: Pac-Man

Step into the iconic maze with Pac-Man, the legendary arcade game originally known as Puck Man in Japan. Released in 1980 by Namco and brought to North American audiences by Midway Manufacturing, this captivating game has become a cultural phenomenon. Guide Pac-Man through a colorful maze, gobbling up all the dots while skillfully avoiding four mischievous ghosts with unique chasing patterns. Snack on powerful "Power Pellets" to turn the tables—momentarily turning ghosts blue and vulnerable—allowing you to chomp them for bonus points!

With its simple yet addictive gameplay, control Pac-Man with the directional D-Pad, and use the START button to pause your game. Embark on a quest starting with three lives, aiming to clear the maze by consuming every dot and fruit, which awards extra points. Beware—touching a ghost costs a life! As you progress, the game intensifies: the maze remains the same, but the pace quickens and enemies become more aggressive. Collect fruits for bonus points and earn an extra life every 10,000 points.

Pac-Man’s influence extends beyond the arcade, spawning numerous sequels, merchandise, and even television series. As the mascot of Bandai Namco Entertainment, this masterpiece has generated over $14 billion in revenue and sold over 43 million units worldwide—solidifying its status as one of the greatest video games of all time. Dive into the timeless thrill of Pac-Man and experience a game that continues to captivate players across generations!
