Instructions for the game. Use a die or a deck of cards with the face cards removed. One player is Pac-Man and the other players are the ghosts. Place the ghosts in the rectangular box in the middle of the board. This is their starting point. Any number will release the ghost players onto the board. Place Pac-Man under the rectangular box in the center. The Pac-Man player has the first move. Use the die and roll a number to move the characters around the board by counting the small Pac-pellets as one space each. You may instead turn over cards, and use the number on the card to move the characters on the board. Object of the game – Pac-Man must try to get to all four large Pac-pallets before the ghosts catch him. The ghosts must land on the same small Pac-pellet as Pac-Man. Should the ghost catch Pac-Man the game is over. When Pac-Man reaches a large Pac-pellet, cover it with a foam circle. Set a timer for three minutes. This is the time that Pac-Man can catch any ghosts that are closest to him and send the ghosts home. Should Pac-Man reach all four large Pac-pellets the game ends.

Behind the Maze Full Text
BEHIND THE MAZE A SHORT PARODY BY NFT'd with ❤ on Kododot You know them as the celebrity ghosts in the highest grossing video game of all time, a voice-over artist declared through Audrey's surround sound. A young woman sat alone in her digital studio reviewing raw footage of the four legendary Pac-Man ghosts. Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde hovered over a cobalt-blue leather sofa waiting to field interview questions. Behind them, an 8-bit grid of cobalt-blue LED lights replicated their notorious maze against black flats. Audrey paused the video and cued up the narrator's next line. Their relentless pursuit of Pac-Man rocketed them to superstardom. Audrey’s left index finger slid across the trackpad as she dragged and dropped another video clip into her editing project — a panning shot of the four famous ghosts from left to right. Blinky was the first in line. Beads of sweat dotted his forehead as the red ghost clenched his jaw and ground his teeth. He jumped at every single sound — at every single movement. Even without audio, his anger and aggression overshadowed the other three. To his right, Pinky fidgeted over her seat. The token female seemed lost in thought as she trembled and picked at her floating pink hem. Next in line, the bashful cyan ghost named Inky stared at something off-camera. Maybe he was avoiding eye contact; probably, he was just spacing out. Clyde was last in line. The orange ghost with bloodshot eyes fixated on a crewman lingering around the craft services table.

Pac-Man Is Overkill
2020 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) October 25-29, 2020, Las Vegas, NV, USA (Virtual) Pac-Man is Overkill Renato Fernando dos Santos1;2, Ragesh K. Ramachandran3, Marcos A. M. Vieira2 and Gaurav S. Sukhatme3 Abstract— Pursuit-Evasion Game (PEG) consists of a team of pursuers trying to capture one or more evaders. PEG is important due to its application in surveillance, search and rescue, disaster robotics, boundary defense and so on. In general, PEG requires exponential time to compute the minimum number of pursuers to capture an evader. To mitigate this, we have designed a parallel optimal algorithm to minimize the capture time in PEG. Given a discrete topology, this algorithm also outputs the minimum number of pursuers to capture an evader. A classic example of PEG is the popular arcade game, Pac-Man. Although Pac-Man topology has almost 300 nodes, our algorithm can handle this. We show that Pac- Man is overkill, i.e., given the Pac-Man game topology, Pac-Man game contains more pursuers/ghosts (four) than it is necessary (two) to capture evader/Pac-man. We evaluate the proposed algorithm on many different topologies. I. INTRODUCTION Pac-Man is a popular maze arcade game developed and released in 1980 [1]. Basically, the game is all about control- Fig. 1. A screenshot of the Pac-Man game. The yellow colored pie shaped object is the Pac-Man. The four entities at the center of the maze are the ling a “pie or pizza” shaped object to eat all the dots inside ghosts.

An Evaluation of the Benefits of Look-Ahead in Pac-Man
An Evaluation of the Benefits of Look-Ahead in Pac-Man Thomas Thompson, Lewis McMillan, John Levine and Alastair Andrew Abstract— The immensely popular video game Pac-Man has we feel that such practices are best applied in small scope challenged players for nearly 30 years, with the very best human problems. While this could most certainly apply to ghost competitors striking a highly honed balance between the games avoidance strategies, the ability to look ahead into the game two key factors; the ‘chomping’ of pills (or pac-dots) throughout the level whilst avoiding the ghosts that haunt the maze trying to world and begin to plan paths through the maze is often capture the titular hero. We believe that in order to achieve this ignored. We consider the best means to attack the Pac-Man it is important for an agent to plan-ahead in creating paths in problem is to view at varying levels of reasoning; from high the maze while utilising a reactive control to escape the clutches level strategy formulation to low level reactive control. of the ghosts. In this paper we evaluate the effectiveness of such In our initial work in this domain, we sought to assess a look-ahead against greedy and random behaviours. Results indicate that a competent agent, on par with novice human our hypothesis that the benefits of simple lookahead in Pac- players can be constructed using a simple framework. man can be applied to generate a more competent agent than those using greedy or random decision processes.

We present an updated Starcraft competition [17] runs on the original Starcraft: Brood game engine with Partial Observability constraints, a new Multi- War (Blizzard Entertainment, 1998). Starcraft is a complex Agent Systems approach to developing Ghost agents, and several sample controllers to ease the development of entries. A restricted Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game with thousands of potential communication protocol is provided for the Ghosts, providing actions at each time step. Starcraft also features PO, greatly a more challenging environment than before. The competition complicating the task of writing strong AI.

Pac-Mania: How Pac-Man and Friends Became Pop Culture Icons
Pac-Mania: How Pac-Man and Friends Became Pop Culture Icons Sarah Risken SUID 4387361 Case History STS 145 They were the most fashionable couple of the early 1980’s, even though between the two of them the only article of clothing they had was a pink bow. Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man, first introduced to us in 1980 and 1981 respectively, transformed the video game industry. All it took was one look at that cute little eyeless face and Pac-Mania ensued. Yet, Pac-Man wasn’t all fun and games. Being the first character-based game, Pac-Man merged storytelling and videogames (Poole, 148). When the Ms. came out, girls were no longer afraid to go to the arcade. Soon the Pac-Family invaded all forms of media and Pac-based products ranged from cereal to key chains (Trueman). The success of Pac-Man and its sequels brought video games out of the arcades and into the center of pop culture where they have remained to this day. Pac-Man is a simple game about one of our basic needs in life: food. The goal of the game is to eat all 240 dots in a maze without running into one of Pac-Man’s four enemies, the colorful ghosts Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde. There is an edible item in the middle of the maze that gives you bonus points as well as telling you what stage maze you are on: Level 1: Cherries, Level 2: Strawberry, Levels 3-4: Peach, Levels 5-6: Apple, Levels 7-8: Grapes, Levels 9-10: Galaxian flagship, Levels 11-12: Custard pie, and Levels 13+: Key (Sellers, 57).

Deadline: October 3, 11:59pm DESCRIPTION For this assignment, you will be creating AI to control the ghosts in Pacman. There are two main phases to this assignment: 1. Creating an AI controller for the ghosts, and 2. Playtesting the AI controller with your friends. Note that there are additional requirements for graduate students than for undergraduate students. If an undergrad and grad student are working together, they must complete the graduate student requirements. Undergraduate student pairs may attempt to complete the graduate student requirements as well for extra credit. No more than 10% extra credit will be given. You will be turning in: 1. Source code for your assignment. 2. A short writeup that has a paragraph or two about how your controller works and a playtesting report. Please turn this in as a PDF. 3. A readme text file containing: your name, the names of any people who helped you with the assignment, references to any external sources you used, a list of all the files you created for this assignment and their location, any special instructions necessary for getting your code to work, and how many late days (if any) you wish to apply to the assignment. PHASE 1: CREATING GHOST AI We will be using the Pacman vs. Ghosts framework for this assignment, which has historically been used in game AI research competitions.

The game of Ms. Pac-Man is an artificial players to achieve the highest possible score, existing excellent benchmark problem of pursuit-evasion game with mul- tiple, active adversaries that adapt their pursuit policies based artificial players have yet to achieve the performance level of on Ms. Pac-Man’s state and decisions. In addition to evading the expert human players [7]. For instance, existing artificial play- adversaries, the agent must pursue multiple fixed and moving tar- ers typically achieve average scores between 9000 and 18 000 gets in an obstacle-populated environment. This paper presents and maximum scores between 20 000 and 35 000 [8]–[13]. In a novel approach by which a decision-tree representation of all particular, the highest score achieved at the last Ms. Pac-Man possible strategies is derived from the maze geometry and the dynamic equations of the adversaries or ghosts. The proposed screen capture controller competition was 36 280, while expert models of ghost dynamics and decisions are validated through human players routinely achieve scores over 65 000 and in extensive numerical simulations.
