Overview
Description

Gotcha is a two‑player arcade maze game where one player controls the Pursuer (a square) and the other controls the Pursued (a plus sign). The maze scrolls on screen and the Pursuer must navigate toward the Pursued while a beeping tone rises in pitch as they get closer. When the Pursuer catches the Pursued, a point is awarded and the chase restarts instantly. The simple control scheme and escalating sound create a tense, competitive experience that rewards quick thinking and spatial awareness.

Jr. Pac-Man brings the timeless arcade maze action to modern players. Guide the titular Jr. Pac-Man through increasingly challenging mazes, gobbling dots and energizers while evading four relentless ghosts. When you eat an energizer, the ghosts turn blue and become vulnerable, letting you chase them for extra points before they retreat to their home base. Each cleared maze introduces a new layout, keeping the gameplay fresh and demanding quick reflexes. The game captures the nostalgic feel of early 80s arcade titles while offering smooth controls and crisp graphics for contemporary platforms. Perfect for quick sessions or marathon runs, Jr. Pac-Man delivers endless replay value for fans of puzzle‑arcade action.
