Honestly, this isn't too bad. Gary Acord came up with a few interesting solutions for Xferplay-based Pac-Man clones, and this one has plenty of variety to it. On its own, without any of the cross-comparisons to Acord's other games, Pakdream would be sort of notable in a few respects.

Nearly every level has a different character sprite. Most are edits of the same one or two original sprites.

Apparently this is the sequel to Zapak, and the precursor to Pakmon. Good to know.
