Gameplay

Super Pac-Man does away entirely with the standard dots of the previous two games. Instead, the game focuses on item collection, though still within similar mazes. In order to access the items, whether they are fruit or power pellets, the player must first eat keys to open doors accessing them. In later levels, keys open doors further away from the location of the key. As with dots in the first two games, all items must be consumed in order for the player to progress to the next level
 
In addition, the game contains "super pellets" which can be eaten to turn into the titular Super Pac-Man, increasing his size and speed, making him invulnerable to ghosts, and allowing him to eat through doors without the corresponding key.
