On the other hand, this is a game screaming for headphones. The music, including the wonderful remix of the classic Pac-Man theme, is just fantastic. It's infectious, and it doesn't leave your head for some time after the console is turned off. All the sound effects remain as they did over 20-years ago, and that's hardly a complaint. It gives a brand new game an already warm feeling of nostalgia.
If you play your games in short bursts, whether on a bus ride to work or on a break, this game isn't going to wear you down. If you're the type that enjoys a solid game time before going to bed, you won't spend too many nights with this. It's a concept that deserves exploration, and the idea doesn't deserve to die. It simply needs to be surrounded by a deeper game.
