Pac-Man (パックマン) is a very successful arcade game developed by Namco in 1981. Among other systems, it was ported to the Sega Game Gear in 1991.

The basic goal of Pac-Man is to eat all the dots (or pellets) in a maze, avoiding ghosts. By eating a power pellet, Pac-Man is able to eat the ghosts as well for a short period, and the ghosts will then respawn from the centre of the screen. Levels are completed once all the dots are eaten, and extra points can be acheived by eating fruit.

The Game Gear version of the game is relatively faithful, though due to the smaller resolution, graphics are smaller in size and the full maze cannot be shown without scrolling.
