3D Pacman

Overview

3D Pac-Man is a self-published action game that was released on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum in 1983, only in Denmark; as the name implies, it stars Namco's signature character, Pac-Man, but the player must use the 5, 6, 7 and 8 keys or a Kempston joystick to control him from a first-person perspective (despite the maze, which is the one from the original Pac-Man and Pac-Man Plus but containing 162 pellets as opposed to 244, being shown in an isometric perspective on its title screen).

The player's task is to collect all the dots in a three-dimensional maze. As you progress, ghosts will appear, which must be avoided or eaten for a certain amount of time after collecting special white balls. In the game, the maze is not visible, only the radar indicates the player's location and the placement of the ghosts in the maze. Green, red and blue status is also displayed. Green indicates safety, red a ghost nearby, and blue the ability to devour ghosts.
