Pac-Man

Since Pac-Man initially appeared in arcades in 1980, innumerable versions of the game have been created for various video game consoles, computers, cell phones, watches, and other electronic devices. Some versions are better than others at recreating the look and feel of the original arcade cabinet. One of the best versions is Namco's Nintendo Entertainment System version, which was launched in 1993 and is currently accessible on the Wii's Virtual Console. Pac-Man and his ghostly adversaries react just like in the arcade game, and the graphics and audio are fairly accurate.

Pac-Man isn't a difficult game to learn, and its graphics and sounds are outdated by today's standards. Nonetheless, its basic design and ever-increasing difficulty continue to capture new generations of players. You must consume all of the pellets in a maze without being captured by the four ghosts who are chasing your yellow puck-shaped avatar. A warp tunnel allows you to teleport from one side of the maze to the other, and you can ingest power pellets to temporarily eliminate the ghosts. Fruit appears at regular intervals in the middle of the maze, which you can consume for bonus points. There's only one maze in the whole game, but the ghosts move faster and the effects of the power pellets wear off sooner with each successive round. The general idea is to amass the loftiest score that you can with the three lives you're given. Owing to the game's simplicity and its roots as a quarter muncher, Pac-Man is best enjoyed in short bursts.
