PAC-MAN GEO is another one of those games that uses geolocation wisely to generate our own levels based on the regions we want. That is, we can use the street map of our town or neighborhood to later play PAC-MAN.
Una original proposal that is well carried out, but which needs to polish some aspects such as the control of our popular protagonist eats pills. The originality is mainly based on being able to move around the world map to create that level based on that piece of map, and then share it with colleagues or family. Go for it.
The original from PAC-MAN GEO
It is mainly your true reason for being that you can use geolocation to generate fully customized levels according to the street where we locate that piece of map. That is to say, we have a world map and with the zoom keys we can expand an entire country to locate ourselves in a region of it.
Within that region we can keep expanding as if it were the same Google Maps. And that area that is circumscribed in the vertical rectangle that we see at all times on the map, will become a PAC-MAN GEO level for our enjoyment.
In other words, we are talking about the fact that the streets of that selected area, even with their names, will be the roads through which we can run with the protagonist to gobble up all those pills and thus finish the level. So far the truth that PAC-MAN GEO is very cool, the problem comes with the rest.
A little erratic control
PAC-MAN GEO us allows you to move your character through gestures or locating on a road with a simple press. The problem with this interaction is that our protagonist will stay stopped, so as we are not fast it will become the objective of the enemies who do not stop watching each of the streets.
This is the main core of PAC-MAN GEO and what takes us to a freemium with a lot of publicity And those damn loot boxes Nobody escapes in this sense to get carried away by creating personalized levels from real maps with their names of the same streets and that can give experiences like we have never had before in a PAC-MAN.
In fact it is perhaps the best innovation we have seen before a saga of games that have replicated what was once one of the most played video games; especially in arcade machines bringing together different generations of players with those games of 5 hard or 25 pesetas (other times, yes).
In english still
Thus we have PAC-MAN GEO as a nice geolocation game in which there is still optimization, since there are some users who are seeing slowdowns in their game. Be that as it may, a quite interesting game because of how original it is to create your own levels with the streets of your neighborhood.
Technically not bad playing everything related to pixel art and those bright neon colors. The problem of inability to access certain routes has been solved by moving from one side of the level to the other. Otherwise good, but without really standing out in anything other than what was said about the generation of the levels.
PAC-MAN GEO comes to Android with some negative reviews, but with how original it is to be able to create those personalized levels with the streets of your neighborhood or town. Lots of publicity for a freemium game with loot boxes.
