Hubris! Midway's brief attempt to milk the rights to Pac-Man resulted in this picture-puzzle game that would be barely passable as bartop entertainment. Craven exploitation of an IP at the level of Urkel-Os or Big Bang Theory slot machines.
Stressful!!! That timer whips by way quicker than you'd expect, so even though most questions are multiple-choice pattern-recognition puzzles, you have very little time to actually sort out what you're working with. Ends up being very unfun as a quiz show because of it. Might be better in two-player, but in single-player, no way.
Not much to the game otherwise. The Pac-Man branding is weird here, but I'm not opposed to this sort of experimentation. A couple puzzles do involve visuals from the Pac-Man game, which is a decent enough tie-in.

It's literally just a quiz. Sure, it's got Pac-Man, but it's a quiz. Sure, it has some personality, but, again.... IT'S JUST A FUCKING QUIZ.

This is a pretty weird entry; and it's pretty noticeable that Bally Midway had a game and decided to put Pac-Man on it for brand recognition.
Shit
