:I dunno, crossing this line feels like, if you start to include games like that, where do you draw the line? Do [[Mouse Trap]], [[Lock'n'Chase]], and other games like K.C. Munchkin belong in that list? I'd rather see all of those game categorized in its own type of category like [[:Category:Maze]]. Then we can illustrate the fact that they have similar gameplay, without polluting the essence of what officially belongs in the [[:Category:Pac-Man|Pac-Man category]]. You know what I mean? Solve one problem while avoiding another.

::As the original creator of the two guides mentioned above, I should add my thoughts; they could be mentioned in an "Unofficial sequels" section of the Pac-Man series category and template (along with [[Pac-Man's Revenge]] and [[Twinkle]]), but Lady Bug, Lock'n'Chase, Mouse Trap, and K.C. Munchkin do ''not'' belong in that list given that they only feature gameplay that is similar to that of the Pac-Man series, not its characters. Also, thank you for reverting today's Pinky-gender-change edit (something I hate) on the original [[Pac-Man]]'s Getting Started page.

:I feel this is like categorizing [[LoL]] as [[:Category:DotA]]. I think maybe mentioning the "spinoff" games on the category should be fine, and linking to pacman from those games makes a lot of sense. But, definitely not categorization. Perhaps a new category could be created (similar to [[MOBA]]), but I don't think it's necessary. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 21:36, 24 March 2015 (UTC) | |||
