Ms. Pac Man Maze Madness is a "pseudo-3d" maze game. I say pseudo-3d because you can only move in four directions, much like in a RPG where you can't jump. There are some elevated parts in the levels, but they are moved into by other means than jumping. You obviously play as Ms. Pac Man, moving in a ...
