If you have never played Pac-Man before and want to learn more about the game and its mechanics, you have come to the right place. In this Pac-Man 256 Cheats: Tricks and Tips guide we will cover some useful tricks that will help you earn even higher scores.

Score Multipliers

Just like in the classic Pac-Man, in Pac-Man 256 players will be able to eat fruits every once in a while. These fruits bestow useful score multipliers which allow players to earn more points. Fruits appear randomly and each type gives a different multiplier so always keep an eye on the whole screen to find fruits eat them and take advantage of the multiplier.

Credits

Being a free to play game, Pac-Man 256 comes with a currency system and an upgrade system. The game’s free to play mechanics are among the most generous ever seen, as it’s entirely possible to play the game even when out of credits, only that it won’t be able to use power-ups. If you really cannot play without power-ups, you can simply change your device’s time to restore all credits. This trick can also be used to upgrade power-ups without waiting.

Free Coins

In Pac-Man 256, players will be able to earn coins while playing. These coins are used to upgrade power-ups, which are quite useful. Getting coins during regular play isn’t difficult at all but if you need more, you can watch a video ad every once in a while to get a few free coins. The offer pops up quite often so make sure to play the game as often as possible to earn as many free coins as possible.
