Pac Pix Description

One day a mischievous wizard came up with a mysterious invention called "Ghost Ink." When something is drawn using this ink, it would turn into a Ghost and these trickster Ghosts would jump into pictures and books, pulling pranks, causing havoc around the world.

Our hero, Pac-Man, has taken his mighty Magic Pen the only weapon effective to defeat these Ghosts, and locked all the Ghosts inside a book. But before he could turn the Ghosts back into the Ghost Ink, he was also captured within the book! You must now take over Pac-Man's quest to defeat the mischievous Ghosts. Use the stylus to draw Pac-Man, control his movements to eat up all the Ghosts on the screen. Travel from the lower to the upper screen to collect items and accumulate points. Can you bring peace and quiet back to the world with the Magic Pen?

Pac Pix is a game very much from the old school style of gaming, but with an added bonus of being bang up to date in that it uses the DS's touch screen as its only method of input control. The old school part is that the game offers only the challenge of beating your high score throughout the various levels that the game has to offer (12 in all). The levels have to initially be played in sequence, with each beaten level opening up the next to play. There are five sequences to each level with the odd boss battle thrown in for good measure. The game is very simple but its execution gives it that one-more-go appeal. The player has to literally draw a Pac-man character which then springs to life and is ultimately guided through the levels by the player drawing 'walls' that makes the Pac-man change direction. The levels get more difficult as you progress and you only have a set time to complete the task set before you, which adds tension to the proceedings. Initially the game feels very simple, but by half way through, the levels are complex enough to challenge any gamer. Worth a rent and even possibly worth owning !

Ingenious in setup but impractical when you want to have fun! rented this game because it sounded so intelligent - u draw pac-man and he actually comes to life, exactly how you drew him! but then to beat the puzzles you start to heavily rely on drawing arrows and bombs and beating harder and harder levels that dont recognise what you've just drawn - except a squiggly line. also, sometimes i drew pac-man and instead of going across the screen he'd go down, moving his "lips" and running along like a pac-crab! worth renting just to see what a DS can do, but all the puzzles are the same and not all that fun. trying to draw an arrow to shoot up at a balloon when you have milli-seconds to do it, and nothing happening until finally it shoots up - and goes in the wrong direction is the single most frusting fun sapper i have ever had the displeasure of encountering. sent the game back without finishing it. 'nuff said.

Oh dear. A shameless money-spinning idea to crowbar touch screen and valuable retro IP into one small game card. Don't be fooled - it really is awful!

Quite a difficult game to play, unless you are very adept at drawing. I expected the standard controls to be used but they are not (apart from the pen)
Features
  • Draw Pac-Man! Use the stylus to draw Pac-Man, and watch as he comes to life on-screen for a totally new gameplay experience.

  • Pac-Man gets bigger! How big is your Pac-Man? When you encounter the big Ghost Boss, draw a bigger Pac-Man so you can eat him!

  • Control his movements! Draw a wall, and Pac-Man will change direction; when you place the stylus on a moving Pac-Man, he stops. Maximize Pac-Man's movements and eat all the Ghosts!

  • Shoot down the Ghosts! How's your aim? Once you clear the fourth stage, you will be able to draw arrows on the bottom screen that will shoot up to the upper screen, making Ghosts fall for you to eat.

  • Collect Items! Scoot over to the Item Road on the upper screen and collect items that appear.
