GAMEPLAY: Fairground-style game, in which you drop the ball through the maze of pins and have to catch it at the bottom and deliver it into the scoring hole. The little cutaways give you a chance of glimpsing which direction the ball is going as it travels behind the sticker.

VARIANT: Pac-Man

ORIGIN: US Tomy Pocket Game

DIFFERENCES: Officially licenced from the arcade game, this version has some slight gameplay differences to the others - the maze is transparent, so you can follow the path of the balls more accurately, and there are 10 balls instead of the six in the other versions. Also, Pac-Man's mouth chomps open and closed as he moves along, although it makes no difference to his ball-catching ability.
