Pac-Man Museum Plus gameplay

You know the drill with Pac-Man now, in its original form it was a simple (but not easy) game that saw you navigating a maze, collecting dots and treats, and avoiding ghosts that are floating after you to end your game prematurely.

With this, you will get the OG version (that you can play on your laptop just by Googling it - fun fact) and many of the best games from his long-standing career in the gaming community - it was first launched in 1980.

Here is what the game summary tells us:

Pac-Man Museum Plus is a compilation of the best games of the Pac-Man series ranging from the original maze games, puzzle games and platformers. Discover the evolution of Pac-Man from his humble beginnings from 1980 through best hits like Pac-Man Champion Edition and Pac-Man Battle Royale.

Basically if you love Pac-Man or want to experience a game that is about as retro as you can possibly get, you'll want to give Pac-Man Museum Plus a go when it gets released at the end of the month.
