How To Play
Setting Up The Game
- Insert a yellow peg into each hole on the game board. These are the Pac-Dots that Pac-Man will eat!
- Assemble the board by connecting the board pieces together.
- Place the Pac-Man and Ghost pawns on the board along with the Power Pellets.
Each player takes a turn playing as Pac-Man while the other players play as the Ghosts!
Playing as Pac-Man
- Pac-Man gains points by completing section of the maze, eating fruits, and eating ghosts.
- On his turn Pac-Man rolls three dice, adds up their value and moves that number of spaces.
- As Pac-Man moves over Pac-Dots he pushes them down with his base making the classic arcade sound!
Score as many points as possible before getting caught by the Ghosts!
Playing as the Ghosts
- On the Ghosts’ turn, they flip over a card from the ghost deck.
- This card tells the Ghosts how many spaces they can move and their turn order.
- Ghosts may talk and plan their moves together in order to try and trap Pac-Man!
Try and catch Pac-Man in order to end his turn!
Fruit Cards and Eating Ghosts
- If a fruit card is drawn, place a fruit on Pac-Man’s starting space. Pac-Man can get bonus points by eating the fruit without getting caught.
- When Pac-Man eats a large Power Pellet, he gets to roll three more dice and has a chance to eat the ghosts.
- If a ghost is eaten, they are replaced with a pair of Ghost eyes and must go back to their start to respawn!
Scoring Points and Winning the Game!
- For each section of the maze Pac-Man completes he gets 800 points.
- Fruits are worth 100, 200, and 500 points.
- Each ghost Pac-Man eats is worth 200 points.
If Pac-Man can clear all of the dots on the board, the board is reset and level 2 Ghost cards are added to the deck. Once everyone has had a chance to play as Pac-Man, the player with the highest score wins! A high score note pad is included with the game to keep track of everyone’s scores!

Pac-Man and Ghost Tips and Strategies
Ghosts
- Remember that ghosts are a team! Try and work together without blocking each other.
- Make sure you move your ghost not just where Pac-Man is but where he is going!
Pac-Man
- Pac-Man only gets points for eating all the pegs in a quadrant. Make sure you finish each section!
- Use your Power Pellets wisely, you only have 4 to work with.
