'''Pac-In-Time''' is a [[platform]] game, that was released by [[Namco Hometek]] for the [[SNES]] and [[Game Boy]] systems on [[January 3]], [[1995]]; it follows on from the events of [[Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures]], which was released in the previous year. After [[Pac-Man]] "chewed up" the Gum Monster for the Ghost Witch of Netor (who no longer looks like an evil version of Taira no Kagekiyo from [[Genpei Tōma Den]] or the female equivalent of Dr. Bakuda from [[Beraboh Man]]), she cast a spell on him, which sent him back to [[1975]] - five years before he was even thought of and while videogames were still in their infancy. The time-travelling spell had an unfortunate side effect to Pac-Man; he grew younger until he reappeared as a Pac-Boy. The game is somewhat like a cross between original Pac-Man and [[Super Mario Bros.]].

Pac-Boy, as he will now be referred to for the remainder of this guide, must now make it through five 1970s-style worlds (each one comprised of ten areas, for a total of fifty levels) in order to get back to his own time; he now has a power to shoot fireballs at any non-ghost enemy like the aforementioned Mario Brothers did after they grabbed a Fire Flower in their games, but power pellets are (as always) the only way to defeat the ghosts, when they do appear. He can also employ the use of a hammer to destroy obstacles, a bubble so he can breathe underwater (the equivalent of the Water Barriers from [[Sonic the Hedgehog 3]]), and a hook so he can latch on to the ceilings of some areas - but in some of the areas he will not have a certain item at the outset, so you will have to find it in order to collect the pellets you cannot reach without it. Namco's mascot is also, after 8 years, back under player control.
