Baby Pac-Man is an arcade pinball/video game hybrid made by Bally Midway in 1982. Upon inserting a coin, the game begins its typical maze-style play like in the original Pac-Man, but upon entering an escape tunnel, a pinball is launched below on the main playfield where the player can gain extra points. The monsters are noted for being extremely aggressive, fast, and unpredictable, frequently breaking the rules of movement established in Namco's official Pac-Man games.

  • Baby Pac-Man is an arcade pinball/video game hybrid made by Bally Midway in 1982. Upon inserting a coin, the game begins its typical maze-style play like in the original Pac-Man, but upon entering an escape tunnel, a pinball is launched below on the main playfield where the player can gain extra points. The monsters are noted for being extremely aggressive, fast, and unpredictable, frequently breaking the rules of movement established in Namco's official Pac-Man games. Also, the game initially starts off with no energizers: the player is forced to earn them in the pinball portion of the game, making Baby Pac-Man notoriously difficult despite its infant hero. Baby Pac-Man is also notable for being one of only three games to combine video gaming and pinball - the other two being Caveman and Granny & the Gators. Baby Pac-Man was one of a series of games released by Midway that was not authorized by Namco, the creator of Pac-Man, and which led to the termination of the licensing agreement between the two companies. Description from the arcade flyer: Mr. and Mrs. Pac-Man beam with pride as Baby Pac-Man follows in his parents' dot-chomping footsteps. A video game with a great pinball feature, Baby Pac-Man leads you where neither video nor pin has gone before. Game action begins with the ever-popular Pac-Man maze where Pac-Baby happily munches away on white dots. However there are no helpful energizers to help you fight against the deadly monsters. Make your escape to the pinball playfield and enhance your video action by earning energizers, tunnel speed-up, and valuable fruits.
  • Baby Pac-Man é um jogo de vídeo game, da série Pac-Man, feito pela Bally Midway em 1982. Após a inserção de uma moeda, o jogo começa com o labirinto típico do jogo original, mas, ao entrar num túnel, uma tela de pinball é aberta sobre a principais plataforma onde o jogador pode ganhar pontos extras. Os fantasmas se destacam por serem extremamente agressivos, rápidos, imprevisíveis e, muitas vezes por quebrarem as regras de circulação estabelecidas na "norma" oficial dos jogos de Pac-Man. Além disso, o jogo inicia sem pontos energizantes: o jogador é obrigado a ganha-los no pinball. Pac-Man Midway Games The Internet Pinball Database Presents Baby Pac-Man
