Overview

Pac-Man & Chomp Chomp was produced by Namco in 1983, it's a variant of the game Pac & Pal that was released across European countries in arcades. Pal (Mil) was replaced by Chomp-Chomp, Pac-Man's dog from the animated cartoon series. In this sequel, Pac-Man unlocks doors by flipping over playing cards. Instead of power pills, Pac-Man takes on the powers of two special targets per round. Bonus rounds involve turning over as many cards as possible before finding the red monster. This installment puts a nice spin on the Pac-Man series. Pac-Man doesn't ever eat any ghosts in this game; he blasts them with the Galaga tractor beam, the smokescreen from Rally-X, musical notes, etc. There are no side exits on the screen, but there is an orange area in the center of the maze that slows down the monsters when they pass through it. The placement of the red monster on the bonus rounds is random, and it appears to not follow any pattern. Only three doors can be unlocked at any given time. "Chomp Chomp", the Pac-dog, often steals the unlocked prizes and takes them to the monster base where they are lost forever.
