Similar | In the original ''Pac-Man'', the main goal was to eat all the pellets in the maze, each of which always follows in a perfect line. Power Pellets appear on different points of the stage and allow Pac-Man to become invincible and eat ghosts. Similar Pac-Dot trails appeared in the ''{{s|wikipedia|Pac-Man World}}'' games, wherein long snaking trails of pellets would wind around sections of many stages; chomping on a pellet with a red arrow (or a red pellet in ''Pac-Man World 2'' and ''3'') would make Pac-Man proceed to follow the path, flying through the air as he ate all of the pellets, similar to how the ''Smash Bros.'' move is used, although no Power Pellets are encountered at the end of those flying Pac-Dot trails. Before that, the opening credits of the Hanna-Barbera ''Pac-Man'' Saturday morning cartoon series depicted Pac-Man floating through a chain entirely comprised of power pellets, and after the ''World'' series, Pacster (an alternate timeline character with an oft-contradicted relationship to the original Pac-Man) was able to fly in midair in a similar manner in the ''Pac-Man & The Ghostly Adventures'' cartoon and games. | ||
