Great game the controls are excellent. Too bad the couldnt just release it as a whole game.
Only knocks against it are the touchscreen controls, which work well but cant compare to a joystick/gamepad; also the expansion should have been included, maybe just up the price slightly. Lots of new mazes, and original "Championship" mode is unlockable (well, a couple small changes in it which I hope theyll address in a future update) Still a fantastic game!
I bought this for .99 The controls are surprisingly good - I use the fingertip swipe myself. Nice graphics, nice control... If you like Pacman this is well worth a buck!
This is easily the best 99 cent purchase I have ever made. Fun game, good graphics, addictive game play. What more could you ask for, for a dollar.

Some bad moments

Loved the game so I bought the expansion and it kicks me out before I can play now. Waste of money unless they can fix it. The controls can be tricky at high speeds too.
This game worked fine until I uploaded an update now it crashes whenever I try to play it. This needs to be fixed.
This is not a game, this is a demo you will pay for. If you want the game it is an additional $4. Not worth the $1. This is Namco playing bait-and-switch with you.
initially, this game looked like it would be interesting. its updated pacman, whats not to love? Ill tell you: the awkward controls. the swipe controls were duplicated (thumbs and finger swipe? the only difference was one vs. two joysticks showing on the screen!), the "DPad" controls were slow to respond, and the full screen button controls were almost unusable. next, the double pay. at 2.99, the amount of initial content is disappointing. 20 of the 120 levels are available in one mode. this was a pay-for demo at best. I would be a lot more inclined to pay 3.99 (more than the original price!) for additional content if I hadnt already popped for the demo. whats good? it looks cool, the sound is good, and once you get used to the poor controls, it is pretty fun. but certainly not seven bucks worth of fun.
I actually love this game (the core gameplay is awesome and the controls work really well once you get used to them). In the last update they even lowered the price of the DLC to $0.99, which makes the full package an absolute steal. However, though the last update added facebook functionality, they totally broke the UI and menu system. When you finish any of the challenge menus, half the buttons dissapear completely making it impossible to navigate thorough the menus, and basically forcing a restart. In the present condition, the game is pretty close to unplayable. If youre thinking about a purchase, Id wait for the next update or youre just going to wind up frustrated and furious. Namco, please fix, and in the future, test your updates before releasing them.
There is only 3 different control settings and the rest is basically the same. Put actual different ones and u get 5 stars.
