Pac-Man 99 - It's very good! - A Black Falcon - 15th April 2021

So, with Mario 35 unfortunately shut down, Nintendo needed something to keep interest up on Switch Online.

And this is what they came up with -- a new battle royale game based on another popular old game, this time Namco's Pac-Man.  This game is really quite fantastic, with extremely addictive pick up and play mechanics and some really cool twists that make it a frenetic and challenging title indeed.  I have not won yet but keep playing anyway, this is awesome stuff!  I've probably already played more of this than I ever did the disappointing Mario 35; sure it's awful that they shut it down, but I never did like it all that much ultimately, and only ended up playing 3 1/2 hours of Super Mario 35.  This one has no deadline date and is, I think, a much better game.  I mean, both games are great but if you're talking about the '80s games I would take Super Mario Bros. over Pac-Man, but for Battle Royale games it's very much the other way around.

So yeah, play this now!  This is a fantasitc Switch exclusive that's a very good reason to subscribe to Nintendo Switch Online, as Tetris 99 also is.

It's very fun, and up there with Tetris 99.  Mario 35 was also very fun.  They sure were arbitrary about that.
