Zampabolas: maze arcade

A maze arcade game for 1 or 2 players: eat every pellet in each maze without getting caught by the four ghosts.

1. Move with the arrows or WASD, swiping on the maze or with the on-screen pad. You can press the turn before reaching the junction: it happens as soon as it fits.
2. Each pellet is worth 10 points. The big ones (50) scare the ghosts for a while: then you can eat them (200, 400, 800 and 1,600 in a row).
3. Each ghost has its own character: Chispa chases you, Rosi gets ahead of you, Bruma traps you together with Chispa and Pachorra comes closer… and gets scared.
4. The side tunnels take you out the other end (they slow the ghosts down). Twice per level a bonus fruit appears in the centre.
5. Clear the maze to level up (+1,000): there are 8 mazes, and each level the ghosts get faster, are scared for less time and get smarter.

Tips and options

• You start with 3 lives and earn one more at 10,000 points.
• Co-op: you clear the maze together and share a pool of lives (3 + 1). Versus: each with their own lives; the highest score wins.
• The host chooses the mode, the difficulty, the starting level and how many levels you must clear to win (or endless).
• If you disconnect while playing solo, the game pauses until you’re back.
• The ranked game is the 1-on-1 versus, between people only (no bots). Solo and co-op don’t count for Elo.
