In the variety is the spice

The selection of games is quite varied, with classic proposals such as Pac man original from 1980 oh super pacman, its direct sequel. THAT IS Pac-in-Time, which will take us to a fairly demanding (and rough) platform world with different abilities to solve puzzles. You will also find more recent titles such as Pacman Battle Royale oh Pacman 256and endless runner based on the Pac-Man level 256 glitch.

Just one more game

The emulation that the 14 Pac-Man Museum+ titles run on works fairly well in all titles, although it’s not quite perfect in some control details or graphical quality at times. Although in general terms it is more than ok. I would have liked it too slightly more intuitive menus

If like me, you didn’t appreciate the titles main stream Comecocos, you will surely find a pleasant surprise among its varied repertoire.
