PAC MAN and the Ghostly Adventures

Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures, also known in Japan as Pac-World is a 3D platform video game based on the TV series of the same name which aired on Disney XD from 2013 to 2015. It was released for the Xbox 360, Windows, PlayStation 3, and Wii U in October 2013, and was later released for the Nintendo 3DS in November of that year. The console and PC versions were developed by Monkey Bar Games and the 3DS version was developed by Inti Creates. Both versions were published by Namco Bandai Games.

On March 1, 2014, Bandai Namco announced a sequel called Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures 2. The game begins with Pac-Man and his friends walk into Sir Cumference’s lab. Three golden orbs are on a table, and while Sir C is explaining what they are to Pac-Man, four ghosts from the netherworld (Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde) come and tell Pac-Man that Pacopolis is under attack by the forces of Betrayus, king of the netherworld.

They do so to steal the Frigidigitator, a device Sir C made for when Betrayus would make another heat-wave device like the one from Season 1’s “Betrayus Turns the Heat Up”. This game is a basic 2D platformer – somewhat like a simplified version of a prior 3DS game, Pac-Man Tilt. The player navigates Pacster to the end of the level, while collecting Pac-Dots along the way. Pac-Man has a “flutter-jump”, allowing him to hover in the air for a few seconds, and he can eat ghosts without the use of a Power Pellet. Every level ends in a boss battle, where Pac-Man fights against a giant Netherworld creature.
