“Pac-Man World 2 Re-PAC” Review

author image by Andrew Farrell | Nintendo Switch Nintendo Switch 2 PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 29 Sep 2025

I wasn’t expecting Pac-Man World 2 Re-PAC to pivot much from its original incarnation. The remake of the previous game, for all intents and purposes, was a mostly straight-ahead recreation that faithfully stuck to its PlayStation predecessor. This one, however, not only majorly reimagines much of its content, but completely replaces some of it, all while greatly extending its playtime in some surprising ways. Not all of these changes are for the better and I certainly don’t think that the intent behind some of them flows well with the rest of the game, but this is still a fairly successful remake that does its best to improve things.

Hades II manages several incredible feats that sequels rarely achieve. It lives up to its excellent predecessor with tighter gameplay. By doing so, it also manages to stand out in a genre that’s become oversaturated. There are many roguelikes to choose…

When Blippo+ came up in our staff Discord as possibly available for review, I had never heard of it. I checked out the trailer. It took about half an hour for my brain to recover from the short circuit. To…

“Towa and the Guardians Of the Sacred Tree” Review

Imitation, they say, is the sincerest form of flattery. I love Hades. I sadly didn’t get around to playing it until a couple of years ago when I received my Xbox Series S as a Christmas gift. Talk about a…

If you were looking for a review of Sonic Racing that doesn’t talk about Mario Kart, sorry. We just got it out of the way in the first sentence. That failure aside, there is no single game that we’ve covered…

When Annapurna first unveiled LEGO Voyagers at Summer Game Fest this year, I was beyond intrigued, but unfortunately it wasn’t in a playable state. Since then, it kind of fell off my radar, but I jumped as soon as we…
