Game Details

In this hack of Devil World, you play as Count Pacula, who is a blight on the good Pac family name. In order to rid the countryside of this embarrassing pest once and for all and clear the good Pac name, Pac-Man decided to truce with Blinky, who agreed to help take Pacula down. Since the rest of Blinky’s gang declined the truce, he brought along old friends Harry and Rocky. Pac-Man and the newly assembled ghost gang (and their clones, apparently) met at the ancient Pac mansion. At nightfall, Count Pacula leaves his coffin to enter the mansion. When in the mansion, he eats all the red dots that appear on each floor and returns to his coffin before daybreak. He has done this every night for centuries. But not tonight. Tonight is different. Tonight when he enters the mansion, he is startled by Pac-Man and his new gang. He runs frantically through the mansion, trying not to get crushed by the walls and fleeing the ghost gang. When he picks up a moon, he is able to eat the red pac-dots and fire bats at the ghosts, which shrinks them and allows you to eat them. This hack is loosely based off of a cancelled pitch by Midway for a video pinball hybrid game similar to Baby Pac-Man. Of course, this hack couldn’t play EXACTLY like the original for very obvious reasons.
