ITEM DESCRIPTION

Pac-Attack is a falling tile puzzle game, often being compared to games such as Tetris and Columns. The player drops down formations of blocks and ghosts onto a vertical-oriented playfield, the objective being to score as many points as possible before the pieces reach the top of the screen. Blocks can be cleared by matching them in horizontal rows that touch both ends of the playfield; however, ghosts can only be cleared by placing down a Pac-Man piece, which will eat any ghosts in his path.[1] The direction that Pac-Man is facing will show which direction he will move ā€” if he gets stuck in a spot with no ghosts left, Pac-Man disappears. Eating ghosts will cause a ā€œfairy meterā€, located at the left of the screen, to fill up ā€” once the meter is full, a fairy piece will appear that clears any and all ghosts below it, which can be used to cause chain reactions.

Alongside a standard single-player mode, a multiplayer mode is also included that pits two players against each other, the objective being clear as many pieces as possible while also causing additional pieces to stack up on the opponent's side. Clearing out blocks or ghosts will cause additional pieces to fall on the other player's side, and once the blocks in a player's side stack to the top, the other is deemed the winner. The game also features a Puzzle Mode, where the player is to clear out each ghost in a pre-set level in as few moves as possible. This mode spans 100 levels and completing one will give the player a password that can be used to start at that stage again.
