 It was the love match of the century, Pac-Man, star of the arcade, and his leading lady, the unforgettable Ms. Pac-Man through four different mazes as she gobbles up dots, energy pills, fruit and pretzels. But watch out! The ghosts aren't far behind her. Can she escape them?

 Ms. Pac-Man, the first sequel to the wildly popular arcade hit [[Pac-Man]]. It was created by General '''Computer Corporation (GCC)''' which was originally a simple enhancement kit for exiting [[Pac-Man]] machines. Atari originally set out to sue GCC for distributing the modifications to the original arcade game. Eventually, however, Atari hired the programmers from GCC to help create other sequels and original video games for them.

 ==Gameplay==
+Ms. Pac-Man plays similarly to the original [[Pac-Man]] video game. Points are earned in much the same manner, by eating pellets to clear levels, all while avoiding the ghosts. Running into a ghost leads to the player losing one life. However, when the player runs over or "eats" an energizer or "power pallet," it turns all ghosts blue, meaning they are vulnerable to being consumed by Ms. Pac-Man. Each ghost eaten consecutively increases the point value. Occasionally, fruit or other or pretzels appear in the middle of the board that also give the player bonus points. With each round of the game, the ghosts become faster, and the duration of ghost vulnerability shortens, making it much more challenging for the player.
