PC-Man

PC-Man is a 1982 DOS adaptation inspired by the famous maze-chasing arcade formula, bringing the familiar concept of collecting items while avoiding enemies to early personal computers. Players navigate through corridors, attempting to clear the maze while staying away from opponents that appear to have unlimited energy and a very personal interest in ruining the day. The game keeps things simple, focusing on reflexes, timing, and route planning rather than unnecessary complications. PC-Man is a charming example of early computer gaming, when a few pixels and a clever idea were enough to keep players entertained for hours. It may not have the fame of its inspiration, but it captures the same addictive spirit: one more attempt, one better score, and one more escape from those annoying creatures chasing you everywhere.

    Well, thank you very much for the effort in cracking PC-Man, Paul K!

    I was the person who cracked this game (removed copy protection and converted it to a file (.com). It was originally distributed on a self booting floppy and required a cga adapter. By converting to .com I was able to play it on a Hercules monochrome adapter in cga emulation mode. Fwiw I was 19. Tidbit - I tried to hook prtscn (int 05) as exit - sometimes worked, sometimes it didn't. Paul K.

    One of the most fantastic game I have come across. Do you have a a PCMAN version in which there are as many as 11 pcman chances. This one has only 3 pcman chances. Please, send me that version if you have?

    Thank you very much
