Pac-Man All-Stars is a video game for Microsoft Windows developed by British studio Creature Labs and published by Infogrames in 2002. It is a multiplayer video game where players control their characters to run around in different arenas to collect the most dots. The game is an enhanced version of the multiplayer mode found in Ms. Pac-Man Maze Madness and Pac-Man.[1]

Gameplay

The player, along with three other Pac-Man characters, must complete mission objectives. Missions include reaching a specific amount of points and being the player with the highest score before the timer runs out. Each level ends with players having to avoid four ghosts while eating all of the pellets on screen.

Unlike Maze Madness, the levels are open areas with free movement. The worlds include: The Creepy Forest, The Mines, Snowy Mountain, Wandy's Garden, The Laboratory, and Wandy's Castle. After defeating the game's final boss, a large gray ghost named Wandy, the fairies that he had kidnapped are freed.[2]
