Description:
Morinaga Pac-Man mini is an online game first published in March of 2020. Released by Morinaga, it promotes their Hi-Chew Mini and Caramel Mini candies. While defunct, this game is still fully playable via the Internet Archive. The Hi-Chew and Caramel Mini candies encouraged flavor mixing by eating two specific flavors at once, forming a new flavor when combined. The game is adapted from the arcade original, though the Power Pellets are replaced with the respective candies; the Ghosts will turn into the actual candy flavors formed by mixing. There are both Normal and Special game modes. In a standard game, the maze would be randomly selected to be either a Hi-Chew or Caramel maze. In the special game, the two mazes appear side-by-side, both being played at once. The special game was accessed via the UPC code on an actual candy box; this can still be played today by entering a known code, 166 and 001.
