Description
Ms. Pac-Man munches pellets while fleeing ghosts in this Tengen Mega Drive arcade port. Published by Tengen/Sega, released in Europe in October 1991. Classic arcade game with Ms. Pac-Man, varied mazes, colourful ghosts and cherries to eat.
Ms. Pac-Man Europe is the European edition of Namco/Tengen's game, the Megadrive port of the female-oriented Pac-Man arcade. Its collector appeal comes from this Namco/Tengen lineage, rare on Megadrive, and from the cartridge being the sole appearance of Ms. Pac-Man on 16-bit Sega in Europe.
Is Ms. Pac-Man still worth playing in 2026?
A Mega Drive adaptation of the Namco arcade classic, Ms. Pac-Man offers the proven formula of the ghost eater with four different mazes (varying from the original Pac-Man) and ghosts with slightly different behaviour. The arcade faithful art direction and perfect handling make this title an excellent conversion. For anyone fond of absolute arcade classics or wanting an excellent pick up and play on Mega Drive, a valid recommendation today still on the Sega machine without the slightest hesitation for fans truly here indeed.
