Any rating above 1 is very generous.

Very basic gfx (but thats ok cause its the stylized grachics of the arcade.
So WHY, WHY, has this jerky scrolling and no parallax?
Still, a nice little platformer. Shame, thsi could had been a pretty near perfect conversion.
5/10

Pretty fun, but not all that addictive and definitely nothing like the Pacman arcades. Quite simple and straightfoward though, the controls are user-friendly.

When we were kids we played this quite much. Afterwards I found out that it is actually a crappy conversion. Try it on Mame instead.

It was hard playing Pac-Land, I could never jump over the water on the third stage. It was the same as playing on C64, but with different graphics. But still it's a great game.

Very nice game. But,a 1989 game,doesn't have graphics as a 1986-1987 game. Creatores used the Pac-Man classical graphics. Compared with the C64 version,I think,it doesn't have any changes...(I think
Very cool sound,and nice playbility
7 out of 10

The reason a lot games were so bad was due to lazy programmers writing it on an inferior machine, ie the ST, then porting it over to the Amiga! This couldn't be done from Amiga to ST as the ST couldn't handle it. Anyway, as this was an ST port it was rather tacky. Bad scrolling, garish graphics (colour was usually a sore point on the ST) and generally bad gameplay. If it was written solely for the Amiga it would have been close to arcade perfect as its not a hard game to re-create, unlike say Op Thunderbolt. I must admit I got damn well annoyed on buying an Amiga game and finding it exactly like the ST!!! Long live Amiga!

The motive why AMIGA could not perfectly recreate games originally develpoed on inferior hardwares remain a mistery nowadays.

A very poor conversion - It seems that the programmers have left out some of the baddies on the later levels and as for the scrolling..yuk! It's more jerky than a turkey called jerky!
I was looking forward to playing this - Now I know that I am unlikely to return to it, unless my C64 games collection is destroyed!

This was the very first arcade machine I played on, it was in the corner shop near my school. I spent lots of 10p's in it.
