User Rating: 8 | Pac-Pix DS
Pac-Pix is a unique game, that places Pac-Man and various types of ghost onto an open field, in which Pac-Man has to be drawn to chase ghost & controlled using lines. WHile the game provides for a unique experience that some like me may find to be extremely enjoyable, the average gamer will get bored by a game that appears to be little more than a "gimicky" DS game. Gameplay- 7- Drawing your character on the screen in these deformed, usually slack-jawwed creations that suddenly spring to life & go after ghost. After a while though, especially by the time you get to extra "books", you get bored of PacMan and the additional drawn mechanics you earn in play. Graphics- 8- While in 2D, everything is very bright & fun, which just adds to the fun nature of the game Sound- 8- Many classic PAc-Man tracks have been remixed or redone to give the game a classic, yet fresh feel. Value- 6- The value is low, because in the end, the game doesnt offer anything past its basic game elements, which lets the game get old too quickly, for the average player Tilt- 10- This game is unique and uses the touch pad & character controls in a new way... literally creating your hero in real time to play. Its unique factor gets it these points In closing, while some will love this game & play it till the cart burns out, most will get bored in a week & probably never come back. Play it before you buy it, rent it even, if you can.
