Pac-Man Museum+ [1] 

I played around in Pac-Man Museum+ today - it's a collection of a whole bunch of Pac-Man games (mostly arcade), and I have thoughts.

I finally got to try out Parman Arrangement (arcade version), which does a whole bunch of really fun things:
* Everything is all wiggly
* A special Ghost will appear - it starts out blue (edible), and if you catch it then all the other ghosts become edible too. But if you DON'T catch it, it will merge with another ghost and give it a super power

Pac-Man Museum+ [2] 

* if you lose all your lives, you get the option to insert another coin and continue from where you left off, rather than getting a game over and starting over from the beginning
* So many other little things

I think Arrangement could be a strong contender for "new favourite Pac-Man variant", but I'll need to play it a few more times to be sure

One thing that's odd about the collection is the way you actually access the games - rather than having a menu, there's a virtual 3d arcade, and you play as a 3d Pac-Man walking around between arcade machines.

I'm not sure how much I like this - especially since the background arcade sounds are so loud - but it is cool that playing the arcade games gives you items you can use to customise the arcade.
