  • Pacland is an amazing game released in 1984. There are many secrets, and here are just a few of them. For further reading about how the computer works out which objects will become the pushable objects with hidden bonuses, check out this incredible forum post.

    I love games that are full of secrets like this one and Bubble Bobble. You can play them for decades and still learn new things about them.

    Used to play this every time I saw this in the arcade. I don’t think I knew what I was doing.

      Love Pacland - it really reminds me of the arcades on the sea front in the 1980s. Funny, but this video has way less views than my others so maybe it's just us that remember it.

      The game doesn't do a very good job of explaining its play mechanics, especially the more complex stuff.

    This is useful, but a bit high level for most players. Most people don't even know how to keep themselves aloft when jumping over bodies of water... you need to rapidly tap right after jumping off the springboard. The recent Pac-Man Museum Plus makes this almost impossible, as left and right are assigned to the D-pad and cannot be changed.

      Pacman Museum + you can. The D-pad ain't that bad but you can change it to a button

    One of my all time favourites, many 10p's were put in down the arcades back in the 80s. Still love it today, good job showing off the secrets 👍 The only one I didn't know was the 7650 balloon one, very cool!

      I frantically googled "what does the flower mean" because I always wondered that when I played the arcade as a kid. Sadly it's just a decoration, doesn't do anything.

    Steve. I started playing Pac-Land again when I first got the Super Pac-Man Partycade and then, the Pac-Man Legacy Edition and Ms. Pac-Man Legacy Edition Arcade Cabinets from Arcade 1Up and it brings me back memories. One change is that when Pac-Man reaches the Break Time stage for a "breather," the house in the background is no longer a church like the arcade original. But like the old saying, "Practice, Practice, Practice." Watching this video more inspires me to try to master this game even though I have a long way to go.

  • @Hotshotter3000
    @Hotshotter3000 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Brilliant tips, but I was hoping you'd give an explanation of how to always jump over the river... because that's where I always fail!

    • @skyway73
      @skyway73 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's definitely a tough part of the game, especially the longer jumps. If you hold down jump and push right rapidly while in the air you fly for longer. So don't HOLD right repeatedly Tap right. Hope this helps

      @@skyway73 Yeah I figured it out after. I think someone else in the comments here explained it.
      I saw this arcade game only once in an arcade, but I immediately knew it was Pacman despite being an itty bitty child... because if you existed in the 80s, you knew who Pacman was!

    an interesting note on the L boost. you dont neccesarily need to eat the purple ghost last, she just needs to be eaten 5th (so the 3200 points ghost eaten). if you for example eat a mini ghost with the power pellet, and then eat all five ghost, the sixth ghost and every ghost eaten after that will be worth 7650 points, which is an easy manouver to pull off in the first round, when the ghost are dropping the mini ghosts from their planes

    In one of the worlds of you push the last small cactus pacman becomes see through/invisible. Which is pointless since a little to the right is the door to the fairies which gives you the magic boots and the power up disappears next level. Still cool though

      tap the direction over and over again. So.... run to the springboard, jump holding the jump button for height, then tap tap tap the direction button until safely across.
