Pac-In-Time is a platformer released in 1995 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The game places players in control of Pac-Man, navigating through various levels filled with obstacles, enemies, and puzzles. The main objective is to collect all the dots in each stage while avoiding or defeating foes to progress.
The gameplay maintains a steady pace typical of platformers from its era, blending action with light exploration. A unique mechanic within Pac-In-Time is the use of a magical hammer that can destroy blocks and enemies, allowing players to access hidden areas and solve environmental puzzles. This tool adds a layer of strategy not commonly found in traditional Pac-Man titles.
Distinctively, the game combines the classic Pac-Man character with a side-scrolling platforming format, diverging from the original maze-chase style. This unusual idea creates a fresh experience by placing a familiar character in a new genre, expanding the scope of gameplay and level design on the Super Nintendo.
