Pac-Pix
Encyclopedia
is a video game developed and published by Namco
for the Nintendo DS
. It stars Namco's popular video game mascot Pac-Man. The game makes extensive use of the system's touch screen, making the user draw Pac-man and guide him through each level by drawing walls and devouring ghost monsters. Obstacles such as walls and shields must also be overcome by drawing bombs and arrows accordingly. Players also have control of the speed of the Pac-Man that they create, by changing the size of the drawing when it is created.
Hearing of the crisis, Pac-Man rushed to defeat all the ghosts using the only thing that was powerful enough—the mighty magic pen. After a while, Pac-Man succeeded in trapping all the ghosts into one book, which was then promptly locked. But, before he could succeed in turning all the ghosts back into harmless ghost ink, he himself was also captured in a piece of paper!
With help from Pac-Man himself, the player must take control of the magic pen, turn all the ghosts back into ghost ink and free Pac-Man. Only then will peace and harmony return to the world.
