Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures 2 features new story lines, characters and worlds.
Just like its predecessor, Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures 2 received mixed to positive reviews upon release.
Hardcore Gamer gave the game a 3 out of 5, saying "While the first title burst onto the scene brimming with creativity not usually seen in a television cartoon adaption, the sequel is content to emulate everything that title did without adding anything notable of its own."
News10 gave the game a 1.5 out of 4, saying "Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures 2 is in a weird place for a kids' video game. Younger and more novice gamers might find the game too difficult to play at times, and it may turn them off from it. Those at the older end of the kids' game scene might instead find the game too simple at times and justifiably frustrating to control. Kids who really enjoy the television program will no doubt want (and probably enjoy) this game based on its subject matter alone. Those who aren't in love with modern Pac-Man might want to let this game give up the ghost."
The Guardian gave the game a negative review, saying "In some ways, the game’s simple ambitions would not have been a problem if the recipe had been respectfully crafted. But to a modern audience spolied for choice when it comes to excellent family games, it is something of a travesty."
