Tax Man

Pacman must be one of the most copied arcade games, and Tax Man makes little attempt to conceal its pedigree. Your man dashes around the maze, gobbling up money dots whilst four 'tax men' chase him, trying to make him bankrupt. If he eats a star then the tax men bow their heads in shame, and for a few seconds, your man has a chance to eat them.

There are six levels of play with a different maze format for each.

This game has little to commend it - the use of graphics/colour is poor and negotiating the maze is slow and tedious. All in all, a poor adaptation of what was once a brilliant arcade game.
