Kill the PacmanA new and irresistible game over at Newgrounds.com by someone named Thin, Kill the Pacman is a fast-paced action Flash game where the object is to kill the required number of pacmans (or is it pacmen?) within the time limit. You ‘kill’ a pacman by jumping on it, Mario-style.

Use the space bar to jump off the ground, and then use the left and right arrow keys to negotiate the next landing. If done right, you can ‘hop’ from one pacman to the next without falling to the ground.

The game is easy to pick up and play, and is therefore quick to gratify. And yet, each level requires you to get more pacmans in a shorter period of time, thereby providing the real challenge. The only complaint I have is the game lacks a scoring mechanism or any way to rank how well you did. Still, it's a simple and fun game concept with well-produced graphics, animation and sound. Click.

yay! I beat adventure mode! This is really fun and addicting, a simple but genius concept.

I keep coming back to this game. I've beaten numerous times...but it calls me back. One problem I have with it though, is that in the final stage, if I'm near anything when I beat King pacman, when everything blows up, I will get blown up also.

The only level I had to redo at all was the last level. This is a great game *favorite!*

wow, it's addicting. My trouble is that it's really hard to get back up once I've fallen back to the ground... hmm... I got stuck on the blue level, but it's fun.

I liked the game, until the last level. The part that completely ruined it for me was that giant misspelled "congratulations".
The concept is neat, but there's little variation. It could have used some more twists like the black pacmen.

You should be aware of (and tolerant to) the fact that a lot of the games we feature here are created by people from other countries where English is not the primary language. It might be helpful to put yourself in that person's shoes and receive the kind thought with open, understanding arms, in whatever form it comes. =)
