/[STORY]\
Pac-Man's family and friends are really excited about Pac-Man's 20th Birthday, but they get abandoned to mysterious worlds, Pac-Man arrives
home with an awkward suprise, And now he needs to head straight to the Ghost Island and discovers 6 worlds each with his friends in captivity
and then must face the diabolical Pac-Man imposter 'Toc-Man'

/[GAMEPLAY]\
There is a lot of effort against how trendy the gameplay originally is, you can butt-bounce, throw pacdots, and revroll up steep areas. There are letters
spelling 'pacman' which is my best bit. after the level you'll be able to enter a bonus world with 1-ups and fruits, but only with the letters. Like the 1980 arcade
game, you'll be eating energizers so you can eat azure blue ghosts, 1 makes 200, 2 makes 600, 3 makes 1'400, and 4 makes 3'000. you can also use
pacchains to get to hard-to-get-to areas.

/[ARTWORK]\
The artwork is a bit extreme for a pacman game. The pirate themed levels are trendy but not as eye-catching, The ruin levels are dark and gloomy and the
enemies in it look creepy. The space levels are really sci-fi based and completely futuristic. The Funhouse levels are my favourite, the enemies are well
programmed and it's a very wild and wacky area. The factory levels look steampunk-fashioned and retro for a good riddance. And Lastly, The Mansion levels,
They are really spooky and hallowe'eny, but at least it goes great to most pacman games.

/[SOUND/MUSIC]\
The music is a bit boring, but it sounds peaceful. As pacman collects a pacdot it is suprisingly the same as the 1980 arcade game. The sound of the 'Owo'
as he collects fruits etc. is my best bit, also when he collects the token to clear the level. As he loses a 1-up it's the same in the 1980 arcade game. The
theme song is also vulnerable to good gamers.

/[OVERALL]\
Pac-Man World is not as great as most namco games and it's suprisingly rare. But it totally goes great with Pacman's 20th Birthday, This game can't give
up on you and whether you like it or not, it's still as remarkable. Sadly, This isn't the perfect namco game and it looks really sluggish, But at least it's from
namco, that's all that matters.

8.0 (Awesome)
