Pac-Man
The player-controlled character who clears the maze, collects items, and avoids or attacks ghosts.
How it plays
How does Pac & Pal play?
The game uses an overhead maze view. Pac-Man moves through corridors, eats pellets, and avoids ghosts; power items can temporarily change the balance by allowing ghosts to be attacked.
Rounds become more demanding as enemy movement and maze pressure increase. Bonus objects and Pal add timing considerations beyond ordinary pellet clearing, so route planning and controlled use of opportunities are central to progression.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Pac & Pal?
Plan routes before entering dangerous corridors, and avoid collecting every bonus object immediately if doing so creates a poor escape position.
Use power opportunities for controlled ghost attacks rather than chasing enemies recklessly. Keep an exit route open and learn the timing of Pal-related interactions.
