CURIOSITÀ
Pac & Pal è stato rilasciato in Giappone nel Luglio 1983.

In the game's title, the 'Pal' refers to Pac-Man's new friend, Miru.

An alternate version of this game features Chomp Chomp, Pac-Man's dog from the 1982-84 animated cartoon series by Hanna-Barbera, in place of Miru, and the game's name is changed accordingly: "Pac-Man & Chomp Chomp".

Pac & Pal was the first "Pac-Man" game to have music during gameplay.
