Were two versions of Pac-Mania released? One from Krisalis and another from Domark.
Essentially the same game, but in different packaging. |

AFAIK domark published a Krisalis conversion or something. Krisalis later re-released it on a games compendium. I believe something similar occurred with Pipemania. |

Wasn't the original release by Grandslam (along with Terramex, back when Krisalis were Teque)? There's a news piece in a late-80s issue of The Games Machine where Grandslam comment on how poor sales are.
I think there were 3 different releases - one for Arthur, a second updated for RISC OS 2, and finally the Krisalis re-release.

Thanks for the info chaps, I'll add three versions to be tracked down. I managed to get one off eBay, no idea which though until it arrives. |

I've tracked down two copies:
Pac-mania (Learning Curve version) (1991) (Domark)
Pac-mania (1988) (Grandslam Entertainments)
Did Krisalis released it as an individual release, or only as part of a compilation? If it was part of a compilation, what was the name of it?

Ah, I think I was slightly confused - it is Pipemania that is on the Krisalis Collection (1992). I'll check further, but you probably have the two versions. |

[Edited by sirbod at 10:35, 3/10/2012] I've seen Pacmania both as an individually boxed title, and as part of the "Games Hyperpack" (which also included Terramex, Jinxter, Corruption, Word-up-word-down, and others - nine in total, I think). |
