The basic rules of Pac-Man are unchanged.  You must complete eat stage by consuming every dot and power pill on the screen.  You lose a life by touching a ghost, but you can consume them for a brief period of time after you eat a power pill.  Here are a list of the changes.

[http://www.atariage.com AtariAge.com] forum member PacManPlus is a programmer who is largely responsible for converting many versions of Pac-Man on various Atari platforms in to Pac-Man Plus.  In this case, he took Rob Kudla's [[Ms. Pac-Man]] hack known as Mr. Pac-Man, and further hacked it into Pac-Man Plus.  Meamwhile, forum member Nukey Shay has been diligently hacking the core of Ebivision's Pesco ROM for the 2600 in to Pac-Man, and added the variations contained in Pac-Man Plus (as well as [[Hanglyman]]) in to the program.

PacManPlus took the well received conversion of Pac-Man for the Atari 5200 (and the [[Atari 8-bit|Atari home computers]]) and hacked it in to Pac-Man Plus with a great deal of success.

Just to complete the trilogy of systems, PacManPlus took the Ms. Pac-Man ROM for the 7800 and first successfully converted it into Pac-Man, and then took it one step further and made Pac-Man Plus.
