Hi Tom.

As an interesting fact, the later game packmania on the pc actually had some of the features of the audio version.

Everything was much larger and in isometric view, so you couldn't see the hole maze, in fact you only just saw packman and the tunnels around in four directions (you could see what was in the tunnel immediately north or south of the one you were in but that was it).

power pills lasted longer, and because you could come across ghosts at any time, you had the ability to jump over them, ---- though on higher levels the ghosts could also jump as well, which could be very annoying if one was across a wall and came to get you.

But in terms of reduced view and memorization Packmania actually did play a litle like packman talks, you even had a litle cumpas at one side of the screen showing the direction of the nearest dots.

Beware the grue!
