Namco draws upon its most universally recognizable property in this Nintendo DS exclusive. The character that became an icon for the arcade heyday of the early '80s, Pac-Man gobbles his way onto the DS in a game designed to make good use of the handheld's most distinguishing feature. Pac-Pix is played on the lower touch screen, which is usually empty except for one or more ghosts. Players begin by drawing a picture of Pac Man himself. Assuming the rendition is reasonably accurate, it changes to a recognizable yellow color and starts moving forward. The goal is then to draw lines that lead the player's Pac-Man around the touch screen to chase and eat the ghosts. Proficient players can draw and control an additional Pac-Man, to double-team the fleeing ghosts. The number of Pac-Man characters that can be drawn is limited by the player's "ink supply," which is replenished by eating ghosts. The current level, time remaining, score, and other game-related information is displayed in the handheld's upper screen.
