The "Pac Maze VID-GRID" in the middle of the playfield acts as sort of a video mode. Move the yellow dot (Pac-Man) to light up each space and avoid the red dot (a ghost). The left flipper button controls the direction to move, and the right flipper button moves Pac-Man in that direction. Pac-Man can eat the ghost if "Pac-Man Aggressive" is enabled.

Notes:

Unlike other Bally electronic pinball games, their documentation for this game shows the model number only as 1283, not 1283-E.

This game was one of three games to utilize the unique backboxes left over from the production of Bally's 1982 'Rapid Fire'.

We had a previous unsubstantiated Manufacture Date of May 1982.
