The touchscreen directional swiping that guides your Crossy Road avatar has made the transition, and works just as well navigating mazes as it does the perils of roads and rivers. So how did the partnership of studios Hipster Whale and 3 Sprockets - no doubt under the watchful eye of IP owner Bandai Namco - do? Is PAC-MAN relevant again, or should the makers of Crossy Road and Cubemen be looking for day jobs?įor those familiar with Crossy Road (and there are a lot of you out there), it’s not a huge leap to imagine the pattern of thoughts that led to PAC-MAN 256. We would suggest Mario, Space Invaders, and possibly Sonic for that short list. With Internet rage on a constant hair trigger, even a slight misstep in the treatment of such an icon could mean a career killer - and the list of competitors occupying the same lofty tier of reverence as PAC-MAN are few. It takes a pretty big pair of power pellets to take on the task of reinventing an icon of gaming history.
