From the Arcade Archives PAC-MAN product page:
"PAC-MAN" is an action game released by NAMCO in 1980. Players clear stages by eating all “PAC-DOTS” in each round without getting caught by any of the four “ghosts”, each with its own personality. Eating “POWER PELLETS” will let you attack the ghosts, so time them carefully!
