Tactical, turn-based clone of the classic PACMAN game.

Guide your TACMAN around the maze to eat all the red pills just like the original PACMAN game except that you and the ghosts take it in turns to move. Eating the yellow pills turns the ghosts blue for a while and you can eat them too.

You can use icicles to temporarily freeze the ghosts to get out of trouble or use the speed boost to power your way across to the other side of the maze.

one player should control the ghost like the pacman and the other player should be able to control the pacman.Sounds interesting if you can implement it
