Pac-Mania contains several new features and significant differences from its original counterpart. The most noticeable change is the oblique pseudo-3D format, in which Pac-Man always occupies the center of the screen and a virtual camera moves around the level to follow him. In addition, the player can press a button to cause Pac-Man to jump, allowing him/her to evade most ghosts by jumping over them. Joining Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde from the original Pac-Man are Sue (purple), and two new ghosts (green and steel grey) that jump whenever Pac-Man jumps. (It is hinted through the game's intermissions that the names of the new ghosts are Funky and Spunky, or "Common" and "Grey Common" in the Japanese version, though this is never made completely clear.) In later stages, larger numbers of ghosts appear in a single stage. Also, bonus objects in this game not only include traditional point-scoring fruits, but also power-up items that can have random effects, such as doubling the point values of ghosts or causing Pac-Man to move much faster than normal. The game takes place in four environments: "Block Town" (made up of Lego-like building blocks), "Pac-Man's Park" (a 3D version of the original Pac-Man maze), "Sandbox Land" (walls are made up of pyramids), and "Jungly Steps" (appearing as pathways with no railings, resembling a set of steps that rise toward the back of the maze). The game has a limited number of levels, after which the player is shown a brief ending and production credits, and is prompted for his/her initials if he/she has placed on the high score list. The number of levels varies by version.Read full review
Pac-Mania is one of the best games from the Pac-Man series and the Sega version is definitely one of the best versions of the game! I highly recommend this game if you have an old Sega!
