Pac-Man Museum+ is a sequel to Pac-Man Museum with more games, though minus Ms. Pac-Man and plus Pac-Mom (a new character created to circumvent Ms. Pac's legal limbo). It also includes an interesting game selection screen placing Pac-Man in a 3D arcade room, which secretly served as a teaser for the then-unannounced remake of Pac-Man World, Pac-Man World Re-Pac.

Sub-Pages

Several of the modern Pac-Man titles had their codebases converted over into the Unity engine, providing native ports. However, plenty of leftovers exist from several titles as a result.

Unused Models

Unused Museum Hub Pac-Man Faces

The Museum Hub model for Pac-Man has eight face models, but only three are used in-game - m_face_A, m_face_B, and m_face_C.

m_face_D	m_face_E

Faces D and E resemble the ones used in Pac-Man World for him being hit and dying.

Faces F, G, and H appear to be his default face model minus the eyes, eyebrow detailing, and tongue. Given its simplicity, it was likely used as a placeholder in case more expressions were needed.

Unused Visitor NPC Expressions

Professor Pac, one of the Visitor NPCs you can unlock who will roam around in the Museum Hub, has three face models. Only one of these, m_face_A, is used in-game.

m_face_B	m_face_C

m_face_B is an open mouth expression likely for talking, while m_face_C features a textured grimace on his face. m_face_C is used for Professor Pac's statue model, which uses a different texture file.
