This is a web browser-based arcade game, released in March 2020. It serves as a port of the classic Pac-Man experience, adapted to promote specific confectionery products. The core gameplay retains the familiar maze-chasing action, where players navigate a character through a labyrinth, consuming dots while evading pursuing enemies.

Core Gameplay and Unique Mechanics

The defining characteristic of this title is its integration with a confectionery brand's "flavor mixing" concept. Instead of traditional Power Pellets, players collect items that temporarily grant them the ability to turn the tables on their pursuers. When these items are consumed, the enemies transform into representations of the mixed candy flavors, allowing the player to chase and consume them for points.

Game Modes

Two distinct game modes are available, offering variations on the core experience:

Normal Mode

In the standard "Normal" mode, each playthrough features a randomly selected maze. This maze will be themed either around one of the promoted candy lines or the other, providing a consistent visual and thematic backdrop for the gameplay session.

Special Mode

The "Special" mode presents a more complex challenge by displaying two mazes simultaneously, side-by-side. Players must manage both mazes concurrently, navigating their character through both environments at once. Access to this mode was historically tied to specific product packaging, requiring a UPC code. Known codes, such as 166 and 001, can still be used to unlock and play this dual-maze configuration.

Platform and Accessibility

This game is accessible directly through a web browser, making it readily available to a wide audience without the need for dedicated software installation. While the original promotional aspect may be defunct, the game remains playable via archival services on the internet.

What makes this game unique?

The primary distinction of this arcade port lies in its thematic adaptation. It replaces iconic game elements with brand-specific items and enemy transformations, directly linking the familiar gameplay loop to a real-world product promotion. This creates a novel experience for those familiar with the original arcade game, offering a new layer of thematic engagement.
