Deteacher Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) Jr. Pac-Man must eat all the dots in a maze in order to advance to the next stage. He's chased by killer ghosts but he can eat them while powered up after eating one of six large dots. Bonus points are awarded for eating the fruits and snacks that appear and wander the maze. One of many sequels to Pac-Man, this version's innovative features include side-scrolling mazes, a lack of exits and moving prizes that not only destroy energizers but also create large dots that slow the players' movements considerably. Game Information: Game Name: Jr. Pac-Man Manufactured By: Bally-Midway/1983 Dipswitches: 3 lives. Bonus life at 10K. Normal difficulty.

M.A.M.E Offender Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Oh yeah. This is a fun one. Hopefully we opt to go with NO turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbee99 Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 If I remember right, you have to get a cheat for the Turbo to work. I like turbo better, but lets go with normal speed. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.A.M.E Offender Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 No doubt about it, Jr. PacMan is the most difficult game in the pacman series. I made it to the fifth board. Hoping to get to the seventh before week's end. I am also hoping to break the 100k barrier!! I have decent success while using the "Clockwise Outside Loop" pattern. You start eating pellets from the lower left hand corner. When they shift into "attack" mode, start running your laps in a clockwise motion. It sounds both vague and simple, but you would be surprised at the results. Anyway, here is my first submission. 77.020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found that the first board seems to be the hardest of all of them (at least the ones I've played.) If I can get past the first board cleanly, I can usually get through the next couple boards relatively easy. Great score, M.A.M.E.
