    Obviously I've seen it but no not really its never been my thing but I do really like this one. My first console and game memories start with the First Nintendo and sega and go on from there.

    If that's true, that's pretty amazing.

    I FINALLY got to play 256 today. I love it. I'm still getting use to the controls, which seem like they could be tighter (Am I crazy?). I probably just need to play more. The power ups are fun and a really cool way to add depth. I haven't made a 256 combo yet, but maybe tomorrow.

    Note that you can swipe early, i.e. before the next intersection, and Pac-Man will head that way when he can.

    This was introduced in PM:CE and it works great! (With cool sparks to boot!)

    I think the controls work perfectly.

    Never, never actually seen that only heard of it. Played Sega, Nintendo, super intendo, n64, ps1 and 2 and Xbox but mostly around the time of ps and Xbox I started playing PC games instead like C&C, dungeon keeper, populous ect then finally after dial up internet went away online fps and mmo games.

    So arcade games never really go in anywhere.

    I'm kinda hoping the devs go down the Crossy road route and introduce Mrs Pacman as a playable!

    Loving this game so much! Does the coin doubler only Double the coins gotten while playing in the maze?

    Or their take on Ms. Pac-Man and/or Pac-Man Jr. The never ending scrolling screen reminds me of the extended screen from Pac-Man Jr. Those big dots that slowed you down were so tough!

    Thanks!

    The coin doubler doubles the gold coin value (+2) in game, drops red coins (+5 value) and double your gift rewards :)

    I love the game & think it's a great free model. I would consider pulling the trigger on at least infinite credits, but o want some indication that IAP won't go on forever. I would to see more power ups, pac man characters, maybe boards of some king but not for more money, coinsayne. $13 is a lot for an infinite runner matter how good it is, & this is great. I personally don't want to spend $13, then have to spend more later. Either way, it is a good ge.

    Lol $13 is too much for an infinite runner? Go on steam and buy Race the Sun for $14.99. This game is very well made and obviously has stolen many hearts be it through nostalgia or pure gameplay goodness!

    $13 for this game is definitely worth it. It's all about replayability and fun. This game has a ton of both. And if they were to introduce mrs Pac-Man with her board types and stuff I'd be willing to pay more.

    I cannot stop playing!

    To the devs,

    Has anyone had an issue with the fire power up? The flame effects are the same color as Pac-man and I keep screwing up the direction I want him to go. Is it possible to offset the color a little bit or place an outline on Pacman so I don't lose him in the flame effect?

    Was there any discussion to possibly allow us to use coins to increase the length of time of the super pellet effect?

    I don't get that one? I have the flame but is very easy to see for me but in playing on the iPad so possibly on an iPhone it's hard to see?

    I didn't like the ability much at first until I discovered I can still just move into ghosts to kill them, backtrack over the fire for safety also and the bonus that it kills things on the pathway after I've passed it.
