Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures, known in Japan as Hello! Pac-Man (Harō! Pakkuman), is a 1994 side-scrolling point-and-click adventure game in the Pac-Man series developed and published by Namco. Instead of being a maze game like the majority of its predecessors, Pac-Man 2 incorporates light point-and-click adventure game elements. The game borrows its structure and certain elements from Pac-Land, and also appears to contain certain elements from the animated series, such as Pac-Man’s family and a main villain commanding the ghosts.
After an introductory sequence in which Pac-Man introduces himself and the game’s mechanics, the plot unfolds as a loosely connected series of misadventures stemming from Pac-Man’s quest to complete tasks for his family, all while the ghosts and their mysterious leader plot to destroy him. Pac-Man is first tasked with finding milk for Pac-Baby, which he procures from the local farm. Sometime after, Pac-Man is asked by Ms. Pac-Man to pick a special flower for Lucy, a friend of Pac-Jr’s, for her birthday.
Pac-Man is given a trolley ticket which he uses to venture into the nearby mountains, hang-gliding and dodging ghosts and boulders as he searches for the flower. Upon returning home with the flower, Pac-Man is exasperated to find that Lucy’s party has already started and that she has already been given another flower. Sometime after, Pac-Jr comes home very sad and tells his father that his guitar was stolen by ghosts while he was in Pac-City. Pac-Man is given a train ticket to travel to the city, where he takes on the ghosts; disguised as a security guard, to get the guitar back.
Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures is a graphic adventure game, a vast departure from its predecessors. Players assume the role of Pac-Man as he must carry out different quests given to him by other characters. Many of these involve retrieving a specific item, such as a bottle of milk or a flower. Unlike other adventure games, players cannot control Pac-Man directly, who will wander and interact with the in-game world at his own pace. Instead, players use a slingshot to guide, or “influence” Pac-Man to his destination or to attract his attention towards a specific object. The player is able to also use the slingshot on Pac-Man, which can result in various changes to Pac-Man’s current mood, or can wake him up after fainting.
