Pac-Pix is a video game starring the popular video game mascot Pac-Man, for the Nintendo DS. The game makes extensive use of the system's touch screen, making the user draw Pac-man and guide him through each level by drawing walls and devouring ghost monsters. Obstacles such as walls and shields must also be overcome by drawing bombs and arrows accordingly. Players also have control of the speed of the Pac-man that they create, by changing the size of the drawing when it is created.
The game also has a very precise detection system. If Pac-man and other objects are not drawn in the correct order or are not accurate enough, the creation will be erased and the user will be forced to start over. This is often criticized when the game is reviewed.

[edit] Story
A mischievous wizard one day came up with an invention called "Ghost Ink", which held great power. Whatever was drawn with the use of this ghost ink instantly turned into a ghost. These trickster ghosts then began to jump into different pictures and books, pulling pranks and causing general havoc and mayhem across the world.
Hearing of the crisis, Pac-Man rushed to defeat all the ghosts using the only thing that was powerful enough - The mighty magic pen. After a while, Pac-Man succeeded in trapping all the ghosts into one book, which was then promptly locked. But, before he could succeed in turning all the ghosts back into harmless ghost ink, he himself was also captured in a piece of paper!
With help from Pac-Man himself, the player must take control of the magic pen, turn all the ghosts back into ghost ink and free Pac-Man. Only then will peace and harmony return back to the world.
