Description

One of the last games of the Pac-Man series (for now anyway). This game has an isometric view, and this time, Pac-Man
can jump. There are power pills & fruits as usual, but this time there are also special items. These range from food (like
candy, ice cream, etc.) to a red pill which for a very short time makes the ghosts turn blue, and even a green pill which
seems to increase Pac-Man's speed. The green and dark blue ghosts in later levels jump at the same time Pac-Man
jumps, but not as high. Pac-Man can still jump over them if in mid-jump he moves back slightly and goes forward before
landing. This game also lets the player start from the beginning or at a later level, but if the player starts from the
beginning, there will be a continue option if all the lives are lost where the player can continue at that same level.
