Isometric, scrolling mazes force players to navigate larger-than-screen environments to consume all dots and advance. Guiding Pac-Man through these 3D playfields requires using the new super BOUNCE power to outwit ghosts like Clyde, Sue, and Funky. Consuming power pellets turns these enemies blue, allowing for bonus points by eating them while they flee.
