Description:
Pac-Man GB - Redux is a graphics hack of Pac-Man’s port on Game Boy, providing a complete facelift of the entire game. The hack consists of two patches under the Pac-Man GB - Redux banner both with unique visual styles, dubbed ‘Anniv. Redux’ and ‘Classic Redux.’
Anniv. Redux:
- Anniv. Redux features a brand new aesthetic and all-original graphics, taking full advantage of the Game Boy’s limited palette and the original game’s limitations. Every detail has been touched-up and redrawn, giving the game a fresh look while staying true to how Pac-Man is depicted in his series’ official releases.
Classic Redux:
- New to the 1.5 release is the Classic Redux patch. Based off how the original 1990 Game Boy release looked, this alternate version of the hack aims to do a more faithful job translating the original arcade game’s colorful graphics to four monochrome shades.

Great Hack for a not so great GB port
Reviewed By: macman223 on 18 Sep 2018Great graphics. It reminds me of the graphics in Tengen’s Ms. Pac-Man Port for Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. Speaking of which, Do you think we’ll also get a Graphics hack for the Game Boy Port of Ms. Pac-Man? I’m thinking that will happen. Thanks for a great hack!
