When Pacman was first introduced in 1980, it was described as a maze-chasing game in which the player navigates through a maze and consumes all of the dots that appear on the route. Choosing a challenging difficulty setting and playing until you reach the maximum level possible without being caught by ghosts, who will murder you if they catch you, is the objective. It is critical for the player to collect all of the things on each screen in order to successfully complete the game.
Going from left to right and eating all of the things on each screen, the player must maneuver his way through these stages in order to progress. Because of this, he will be sent to the next screen. Ghosts should be avoided at all costs, as doing so will result in the loss of a life. When he runs out of lives, he will be transported back to level one, where he will have to start again from the beginning.
