Life in Pac-Land
The Pac-family lived in a unique place called Pac-Land. Everything there, from buildings to trees, was shaped like spheres or circles. It was a very round world!
Battling the Ghost Monsters
Most episodes were about the Pac-family's constant battles. Their main enemies were the sneaky Ghost Monsters. There were five of them: Blinky, Inky, Pinky, Clyde, and Sue.
