Terry Lucy of Macgasm writes, "Pac-Man is present in the App Store once more in a new game called PAC’N-JUMP. Fans of the Pac-Man games expecting a new top-down version of our favourite ghost eater look away now, because Namco has shaken things up a little bit and has created a game very similar to the amazingly popular Doodle Jump.
Players have to control Pac-Man as he repeatedly bounces up and down, moving him from left to right in order to land on platforms, with the aim being to jump as high as possible to progress to the next level. To assist Pac-Man there are some typical boosters in the game such as PAC-DOTS and POWER PELLETS, as well as Fruit, which when eaten, give Pac-Man a boost in order to jump higher and faster."
GamePro - Namco goes after one very popular mobile game with this Pac-Man-infused platformer, and it's not the half-assed rip-off you might expect.
Chris Buffa (Modojo): Pac-Man dominated arcades during the 1980s, but Namco Bandai's mascot couldn't live on power pellets alone.
Pocket Gamer - What happens when you combine the best-selling paid app ever to be released on iOS with one the most recognisable characters in gaming history?
The answer is Pac’N Jump, which is essentially Doodle Jump in Namco clothing with Pac-Man replacing the eponymous Doodle as the main character.
I'll take another game like Doodle Jump any day of the week!
Epic game! I love it already!
