You will control the character Pac-Man, a yellow circle with an open mouth, moving in a maze to eat all the small dots (Pac-Dots) and avoid being caught by 4 ghosts. When you eat all the small dots and large dots (Power Pellets) in the maze, you will pass the level and move on to the next level with increasing difficulty.
- Pac-Dots: Small white dots in the maze, each dot brings 10 points when eaten.
- Power Pellets: Large dots in the four corners of the maze. When Pac-Man eats a Power Pellet, the ghosts will turn green and can be eaten for a short time. Eating ghosts will bring increasing scores: 200, 400, 800, 1600 points.
- Fruit: Appears randomly in the middle of the maze, bringing higher bonus points (from 100 to 5000 points depending on the type of fruit).
- Ghosts: There are 4 ghosts with their own names and colors:
- Blinky (red): Always chases Pac-Man.
- Pinky (pink): Tries to block Pac-Man.
- Inky (blue): Moves randomly but can coordinate with Blinky.
- Clyde (orange): Usually moves randomly, sometimes chases Pac-Man.
