By lining the track on the maze with smooth tiles, they created a slip-and-slide effect that reduced the friction on each turn. In the instruction booklet, the designers discussed the difficulties of making LEGO Pac-Man and the Ghosts turn corners. All the movable elements operate off of the same crank. He moves back and forth, just as the ghosts did in the game, thanks to a lever element that's attached to the gear system and moves from side-to-side. Inky runs on a separate chain track in the bottom right of the screen.Īnd Clyde is in the holding pen at the center of the maze. Turning the crank moves three printed tiles along a snaking conveyor chain, which creates the illusion that Blinky and Pinky are chasing after Pac-Man. It even has bonus cherries in the middle-bottom of the maze.
The arcade cabinet 'screen' displays a recreation of Pac-Man's first level. A bar along the bottom displays the number of lives and the cherry icon, denoting the first level. The machine has a score display on its upper left, which you can change with a dial to display four different high scores. The LEGO Pac-Man Arcade is a scaled down facsimile of the original arcade cabinet and game, with a single joystick on its dashboard, a coin insert slot on its bottom right (push a button, and it emits a familiar red glow), and multiple decals on its sides and front panel.
