Pac-Man

The objective in each stage is to clear the maze of all pellets while avoiding capture by four ghosts who pursue Pac-Man relentlessly.

As the player progresses, the mazes repeat but with increased difficulty as the ghosts become faster and more aggressive.

The ghosts each follow distinct behavioral patterns that affect how they chase the player.

Blinky, the red ghost, targets Pac-Man directly.

Pinky, the pink ghost, attempts to ambush from ahead.

Inky, the blue ghost, uses a conditional strategy that can create unpredictable movement, while Clyde, the orange ghost, alternates between chasing and wandering aimlessly.

One touch from any ghost results in the loss of a life, and the game ends when all lives are lost.

To counter the ghosts, four large power pellets, known as Energizers, are positioned in the corners of the maze.

Eating one temporarily changes the ghosts to a vulnerable blue state, allowing Pac-Man to chase and consume them for bonus points.

When eaten, the ghosts’ eyes return to the central box where they regenerate and resume pursuit.

Fruits and other bonus items also appear occasionally in the maze, granting additional points if collected.

The game offers continuous play with no fixed ending.

After every few stages, short comedic intermissions between Pac-Man and the ghosts are shown as lighthearted rewards, becoming progressively more elaborate.

As players advance through more levels, the speed of the game increases and the Energizer effect shortens, eventually reaching a point where the ghosts no longer turn blue.

Pac-Man was first released in arcades and has since been reissued under multiple titles, including Jelly Monsters , PacMan , Arcade Archives: Pac-Man , and Arcade Game Series: Pac-Man (amongst others).

These versions preserve the original gameplay,

Pac-Man for Nintendo Wii is currently worth €9.58 loose, €12.24 complete in box, and €23.58 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Pac-Man has only a handful of tracked market sales, suggesting relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Wii titles.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Pac-Man, loose is €9.58 and CIB is €12.24 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.
