Overview
Sup guys,

So i have nearly 100% complete this game in other platform only missing one achievement that is to fully upgrade each power up. so lets break this down.

Estimated 100% difficulty: 2/10
Offline: 9
Online: 1
Approximate time to 100% : 10h+
Minimum playthroughs: many
Missable achievements: 0
Glitched achievements: 0
Do cheats disable achievements?: No

So PAC-MAN 256 is really easy game to 100% although there is a couple achievements that are bit time consuming and some you will need to have some luck ;)
100% Achievements - Offline Achievements

Dot Muncher
Eat 2048 Pac-Dots in singleplayer

Easy one, all you have to is to eat 2048 dots, this will come naturally and won't take long.

* For some reason, Valve is censoring one word the achievement name, don't know why.



Ghost Hunter
Eat 64 Ghosts while using a Power Pellet in singleplayer

You need to 64 Ghosts will you are in Power Pellet mode, this has not to be done in 1 run, is cumulative trophy.


Staying Healthy
Eat 64 Fruit pickups in singleplayer

Another trophy that you will earn while playing this game. The fruits are:

  • Cherry
  • Strawberry
  • Orange
  • Apple
  • Melon


Super 256
Score a 256 in singleplayer

Yeah this one is bit challenging, you must need to eat 256 dots in ROW without hitting a patch with no dots, turning around and don't have dots there. The best way you could do this is, having a extreme luck run or full upgrade your Stealth power to max (level 8 coast 2048 coins). The fully Stealth upgrade give yous 15 seconds of invincibility + more seconds if you pick other power up along the way. Also you can pass through ghosts with this power up.


Maximum Power
Fully Upgrade a power-up

See Game Over.


Game Over
Fully upgrade every powerup

Both this achievements are bit consuming because you have lot of power up and each power up has total of 8 level to upgrade.

Fist make sure you collect every single C dot you see in game, those gives you money to upgrade your stuff.

Orange C - Gives 2 Coins
Gold C - Gives 5 Coins

Also doing mission will give you coins. You have a total of 8 levels for each power so in total you will need 4,080 Coins for one fully upgrade power up.

Now, you have total of 18 Power Up, and to full upgrade every single one you will need 73,440 Coins. This achievements will be time consuming for sure.


Multiplied Mayhem
Earn a x16 Power Pellet multiplier in singleplayer

Another achievements were luck is more involved than skill, you need to eat 16x Ghosts in row.


Mission Complete
Complete 16 missions

Simple achievements, as you progress through the game you will be given some mission to do such as, eat 3 oranges, collect x amount of dots etc etc.. All this missions expect one can be done in multiple playthroughs, but there is one mission that you must done in go, (Collect 128 dots in a single run). Probably you won't have trouble with this achievements. Also some mission you will need to change your power up in order to complete it.


All Powered Up
Unlock every powerup

You need to eat dots (you must eat them, multipliers don't work here) to unlock power up.
100% Achievements - Online Achievements

Wakka Wakka
Play a multiplayer game

Just plug a second controller and you will unlock this achievement.
Conclusion

I've just been grinding for the game over achievement, honestly don't think it's really good as it kind of just feels like a chore so I usually watch a youtube video while doing it

Cheers for this guide btw!

If you feel like editing this guide, you don't need to plug in an extra controller for "Wakka Wakka". 2 players can play on one keyboard.

For multiplayer, you can use one keyboard. Activate the second player with CTRL. They move with WASD. You have to finish the game.

Did it with 19 hours. I would just throw up a video to watch on the second screen and just passively played, aiming for coins & missions.

Are you interesting in playing in our PAC-MAN 256 tournament? {LINK REMOVED}

I will get rules and prizes up as soon as possible.

You don't actually need a second controller to get 'Wakka Wakka', I unlocked it by setting player 1 to my controller and player 2 to the keyboard. I was actually able to get quite a long way through controlling both Pac-Men by myself, although that wasn't really necessary.
