Introduction:

 

Welcome to the achievement guide for Pac-Man CE DX for Windows 8, including the Toshiba and Vaio versions. The game is the same as the Windows Phone and XBLA version and has a similar list of achievements. The Toshiba and Vaio versions are the same as the standard Windows 8 versions, but require a Toshiba or Vaio system with Windows 8 as standard but have stackable lists.

The achievements are all pretty straightforward and shouldn't pose many problems.

 

Step 1

 

Start off playing a 5 minute Score Attack game. Change the difficulty to Beginner, and take it nice and slowly. Try to get "Sparkster", straight away by pushing in a direction that Pac-Man cannot move for a second. Take it nice and slow, and don't die or use any bombs, and if you make it to the end you will have unlocked "No Mistakes" and "No Bombs".

Next go for the score challenges. You will need to get 1 million points in 5 minute Score attack and 2 million points in 10 minute score attack. There are 4 achievements for 100:gsicon: for these, and you will almost certainly unlock "30 Ghost Combo" while going for these.

 

Step 2

 

Next move on to the time trials. You will need to finish the first 8 time trials to unlock the 10 minute trial. Finish this for "Time Trial Cleared". If you change the maze visual before each trial (visuals A-H), you will unlock "All Maze Visuals"

Conclusion

 

This is a great game, and really easy achievement-wise for those that way inclined. For those that have access to Toshiba, Vaio or both can potentially get themselves a simple 600:gsicon:.

Achievement Guide

Emit sparks for 1 second!

 

You emit sparks when you push against a wall. For example, if you are on the left wall and going up, holding left will make you emit sparks. This is easier if you start on beginner difficulty as you are going slower allowing you more time to perform this. Emit 1 second worth of sparks for this to unlock.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/-Rhcmw==.jpg 30 Ghost Combo - 10:gsicon:

Eat 30 ghosts in succession!

 

This will come naturally going for the score attack achievements. When you get to higher levels, you will have massive rows of ghosts, easily 30 at a time.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/-PikCA==.jpg Score Attack (5 Minutes) - 10:gsicon:

Play Score Attack (5 Minutes) until the very end!

See "Score Attack (10 Minutes)"

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+VpP8Q==.jpg Score Attack (10 Minutes) - 15:gsicon:

Play Score Attack (10 Minutes) until the very end!

 

Simply play the 5 or 10 minute mode until the timer goes out. You can make it easier by starting selecting beginner difficulty and taking it slow, trying to not wake up many ghosts. Just make sure you don't lose all of your lives.

 

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+Lq3Yg==.jpg Time Trial Cleared - 15:gsicon:

Beat the Time Trial mode!

 

Play through the first 8 time trials. These are pretty simple, just follow the quickest line. You will have to collect a certain amount of cherries to clear each time trial. Once you have unlocked the ten minute trial, complete that to unlock this.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+pu+1w==.jpg No Mistakes - 15:gsicon:

Finish Score Attack (5 Minutes) with no mistakes!

 

Just ensure that you don't die during the 5 minute score attack. Select beginner difficulty and you should have no problems. If you do, just circle the map avoiding ghosts and not picking up any fruit to keep the level and game speed down.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+3tGRA==.jpg No Bombs - 15:gsicon:

Finish Score Attack (5 Minutes) without using a bomb!

 

Use similar tactics to "No Mistakes", but just make sure you don't use any bombs. You can die, just don't use bombs for this one.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+FxSSg==.jpg All Maze Visuals - 15:gsicon:

Beat the game with every maze visual.

 

You can change the maze visual before you start each game, there are 8 visuals, A-H. Finish any game with each visual once for this one.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+byq2Q==.jpg 500.000 Points - 20:gsicon:

Score 500,000 points! (Score Attack 5 mins)

 

See "2,000,000 Points"

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+pP1dQ==.jpg 1,000,000 Points - 30:gsicon:

Score 1,000,000 points! (Score Attack 5 mins)

 

See "2,000,000 Points"

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+LL8wA==.jpg 1,500,000 Points - 20:gsicon:

Score 1,500,000 points! (Score Attack 10 mins)

 

See "2,000,000 Points"

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2572/+VIEUw==.jpg 2,000,000 Points - 30:gsicon:

Score 2,000,000 points! (Score Attack 10 mins)

Make sure you set the difficulty to Expert before attempting the points challenges, as you just won't be able to accumulate enough points in lesser difficulties. When playing, try to wake up as many ghosts as you can while collecting pellets, so you can get more points when you start eating. It is pretty hard to die as the game slows right down before any impeding collisions with ghosts. The may take a couple of tries as if you die you will struggle. Remember you can use bombs to help if you get stuck in a tight spot!
