Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Our yellow hero has been transformed into a sphere by Golvis, the world's most Rock and Roll ghost! Using the stylus, players must keep a steady hand to manoeuvre the spherical Pac-Man successfully through myriad challenging courses set in a colourful, lavishly animated 3D world.

Celebrations in the Floating Castle are suddenly disturbed by a UFO emitting a Ghost Beam, turning Pac-Land into Ghost-Land. Everyone has been turned into a sphere and the Ghosts have kidnapped Pac-Man's family and girlfriend. Pac-Man must roll his way through Ghost-Land, collecting pellets while saving his family and defeating the evil Golvis.

Pac 'N Roll utilises the Nintendo DS touch screen to full effect with intuitive track-ball-like controls, allowing you to roll and dash around the environments, flicking Pac-Man in the direction in which you wish to travel. Mastery of skills such as braking, speed-bursting and shaking off enemies are all essential as you clear the stages. On his travels, Pac-Man will encounter various power-ups like "Winged Chocolate", allowing him to fly and jump over ghosts, or "Knight Chocolate", providing armour to crash through walls and navigating obstacles underwater.

By collecting the jewels which appear on each stage, players can unlock Challenge Mode in which various conditions must be met for success. Pac 'N Roll also includes the original Pac-Man arcade game offering classic retro action for up to two players.

4.0 out of 5 stars A really good platformer, 21 Jul 2006
By Sara (Leeds, England) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I was a bit cautious of this game when I was given it for xmas last year. Admittedly, the cover and screenshots seem very 'childish' with the primary colours - not to mention that pacman had got a family, all of whom look like they're from a fairy tale!

The gameplay is really easy to get into after the first stage gives you a complete walk-through of the controls etc. It is a really clever use of the stylus too, making gameplay smooth and easy (well, on easy parts anyway!). The levels are really well set out and look very neat with pretty boundaries. The ghosts are pretty fast when they see you and try to catch you and you have to use the stylus to tap them off before they sap all your 'life' away.

The levels get progressively harder throughout the 'lands' in the game. With moving platforms that you have to time to perfection in the latter stages to the pools of 'acid' and ledges where you drop to your doom, the game doesn't really ever get dull.

In all fairness, the story line is a bit, well, rubbish. It's best just to skip to be honest. And the boss that you come head to head with at the end of each land, Golvis, is a bit embarrassingly pathetic but it's nice that you're in a different scenario with different ways of defeating him at the end of every 'land'.

I managed to complete the game after casual use of it. I got stuck a couple of times on the latter levels so came back to it a few weeks later to master it. The game doesn't stop here however, there are challenges that can be unlocked by completing other challenges and finding enough diamonds. There are edited levels in which you have to get a stupidly fast time in (very tricky but definitely add hours to the life of the game after you've completed it). Also, you get a diamond thing if you collect all the pac dots in a level and there are 1 or 2 hidden diamonds in very well hidden spots in all of the levels. And then there are a few other challenges which are quite nifty too.

It's nice that the original packman has been included in the game in which you use the D-pad and not the stylus. This is unlocked with enough diamonds as are other bonus levels on pac-moon.

Overall I've had a lot of fun playing this game and has passed a lot of tedious hours when the world cup highlights were being watched by my boyfriend and I didn't have any other company! I've always loved playing computer games, and I've always loved Nintendo and now I'm 18 I still love playing on computers as much as I did when I was about 6 with the SNES.

5.0 out of 5 stars PAC MAN MEETS SUPER MONKEY BALL, 31 Oct 2006
By Ms. B. M. Young "ddr_mike" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This game is a classic. It's the super monkey ball version of pac man that we have been waiting for. You've got a big pac man face on the touch screen, which you control with the stylus. Then at the top, you have pac man rolling about around mazes very similar to super monkey ball. Going over bridges, around slides, dodging ghosts. It's all very energetic. It won't get boring, and it will keep you busy for weeks. It's a must have game, please buy it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Monkey ball has a contender!!!!!!!!!!, 21 Dec 2006
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This game will give monkey ball producers a kick up the backside. This beats any Monkey ball's main game in an instant, the only reason monkey ball is better is cause of the sweet mini-games. The thing I like about this is that it is not normal pac man, but you never forget it is pac man. It rocks. Buy it now. Or else.
