Namco Games has come to your rescue and brought along their most successful arcade game ever, PAC-MAN for your iPhone or iPod touch. PAC-MAN Lite is the free version of the two offerings from Namco. The gameplay uses the classic joystick to move around and gobble up the old blinking Power Pellets and munch on various fruity snacks.
How many quarters did you spend on the old arcade game back in the day? This version of the game is sold in the App Store for $7.99 which is about half a roll of quarters. There is also a free version of this game.
To control your moves in 3 different ways: 1) using a soft joystick on the bottom of the screen. 2) using swipe method, you can swipe your fingers on the iPhone to indicate where you want PAC-MAN to go. 3) Using the built in accelerometer you can just tilt you iPhone or iPod touch and move around the game board that way (we think this is the most intuitive method).
Complete with the soundtrack audio and the retro 80’s look and feel graphics, this is one iPhone game to snap up right away. So forget all the 3D Xbox, PS3 hype and check out this classic blast from the past.
Side Note: Google featured Pacman on their homepage for one day and now they have decided to provide it permanantly, so you can still play the game by going to http://www.google.com/pacman/. The Google version uses HTML5 and Javascript (Not Flash) so you can use it on your iPhone/iPad/iPod touch. Previously, various other web based versions of the game were created.

Posted on April 15th, 2009 at 12:15 am by oliviaI think this version of the game is terrible. The field is too small,and the pacman is too hard to control by the buttons. The pacman doesn’t respond quickly to the controls. Also, I am using an iPhone right now, and when I hold the buttons, it keeps on going to the screen where it saves images. It is very annoying. And did you make this by yourself? If you did , can you please make it more like Namco’s version? Thanks
