Critic Reviews for Pac-Man World Re-Pac
Pac-Man World Re-Pac is a faithful remake of the PS1 game, retaining the original's best features as well as its flaws.
Pac-Man World may not be Pac-Man World 2 like I’d hoped, but it’s still a solid classic platformer with enough unique elements to help it stand out. Those who have played the original will no doubt appreciate the nostalgia, but those like me who missed it originally will still have a good time.
Pac-Man World: Re-Pac takes an already-great game on PS1 and makes it even better.
Pac-Man World Re-Pac isn't a game that we'd suggest you rush out and buy at once, but it does a good job of reviving a decent 3D platformer for modern audiences. Tight controls, lots of collectables, and enjoyable level design ultimately outweigh minor performance hiccups, and a general lack of imagination. If you don't consider yourself a fan of platforming or Pac-Man, nothing here is going to change your mind and we'd suggest you pass. If you like classic-style 3D platformers, Pac-Man World Re-Pac will absolutely prove itself worth your time, even if it doesn't impress like the best in the genre.
Pac-Man World Re-Pac is good 3D platformer, but struggles to stand out against other modern offerings in the genre.
Pac-Man World Re-PAC Edition might be worth checking out if you’re extremely curious about the game, genre, or even the time period it comes from, but there are just better games to spend your time with. If you insist then just try to get it on sale, or better yet, during its inevitable visit to Xbox Game Pass before making its way to the bargain bin.
A competent, if unwarranted, remake of an amiable 90s platformer that most people have long since forgotten – if they're even aware it existed in the first place.
A fine modernization of an old classic, funny and clever enough to entertain in the few hours needed to complete it.
