Welcome back for episode 2!
I am glad to see you back! Today we are talking about Pacman 2 The new Adventures. Somehow this ended up in my gaming collection as a kid. I kept it for many years and played it several times over. I have even revisted the game recently as an adult. Explore the world of pacman in this awesome Sega Genesis adventure title!
The Good
This game has a ton of adventure. From mountaintops and hang gliding, to beneath the city streets fighting ghosts. You find yourself solving a ton of puzzles and exploring each new environment entirely. This game has a huge open world and I feel like it was overlooked in a sense. Starting off as an errand boy for Mrs Pacman you head out to find milk for Baby pac when the adventure begins. The twists and turns from there are up to you.
The Bad
This game is incredibly slow paced. This is not a game to pick up and set down for a quick game sesh. You have to put time into this one. The puzzles take time, and just getting from one area to the next might take an entire 2-5 minutes.
Pacman can get very distracted or annoyed with you, therefore he stops listening to you. This is frustrating when you know EXACTLY how to solved a puzzle but hes being an asshead and wont let you do it. haha.
The ugly
The true ugly part about this game is if you picked it up on the shelf thinking it was a classic pacman game or an update to a classic. NOPE. This game is NOT a tradition pacman game. It is a point and click adventure game. It definitely adds its own twist on the genre and if you enjoy point and click adventures, accidentally getting this in your collection might have been a treat.
OVERALL SCORE : 7/10 Definitely a fun game!
If you happen to see this one at your local thrift store, go ahead and pick it up. Especially if you want to dive into a fun interactive point and click adventure. This genre was given spunk by Pacman 2 the new adventure, and I give this game a lot of credit.
That's a cool serious you got going on there bro.
Following you!

I remember playing this back in the day. It's fun enough, tho as you say very slow. Also I think some of the puzzles are a bit too tough for young kids. And the Pac-Man ignoring you part is fun in theory but infuriating in reality. That absolutely should have been removed from the final game.

haha yea ... it was definitely the worst to have him mad and know exactly what he needs to do.

A point and click pacman? Sounds like a strange mix.
