How to Play
Pac-Man is the legendary arcade game where you navigate a maze eating dots while avoiding colorful ghosts. Control the iconic yellow character as you clear each level by consuming all the dots and power pellets.
The maze contains regular dots worth 10 points each and four larger power pellets in the corners. When you eat a power pellet, the ghosts turn blue and become vulnerable, allowing you to eat them for bonus points (200, 400, 800, 1600).
Each ghost has unique behavior: Blinky (red) chases you directly, Pinky (pink) tries to ambush you, Inky (cyan) uses complex positioning, and Clyde (orange) switches between chasing and wandering. Understanding ghost patterns helps you survive longer.
Controls
