is a video game developed by Namco for the Nintendo DS. The game stars a 3D Pac-Man as the user rolls him throughout the playing field using the touchscreen. The classic arcade Pac-Man game is also unlockable. It was later released for the Wii on the Namco Museum Remix and Namco Museum Megamix compilation games.
Plot
Once when Pac-Man was still young, he spent a summer at the home of the great Pac-Master for training to fight the ghosts in Pac-Land. During Pac-Man's training, Pac-Master's family went to the Power Pellet Harvest Festival with Pac-Man. The Ghosts decided to summon the legendary ghost, Golvis. He was said to be so strong that he was sent to space by the ghosts themselves. Castle Pac were celebrating the large crop of power pellets gathered, when the Harvest Festival was suddenly disturbed by a UFO from which Golvis comes. In an attempt to save the Pacs, Pac-Master chomped on a power pellet. But while the other ghosts turned blue, Golvis remained his normal colour with only the end of his tail blue. Golvis and his alive guitar sidekick turned the Pac-People into spheres, and kidnaps them all. With the help of Pac-Land's guardian fairy, Krystal, Pac-Man managed to escape before getting kidnapped. This explains why Golvis' guitar is always out of tune because he was using it to smash Pac-Man into the ground. Now with the help of Krystal, Pac-Man must save Pac-Master's family from the evil Golvis and Ghosts, with their evil plot to turn Pac-Land into Ghost-Land.

Pac 'n Roll was re-released on to the Wii in 2007 as part of Namco Museum Remix; it is renamed Pac 'n Roll Remix and instead of the controls using the touch screen, it uses the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. The story is also removed from this version of the game and the DS version's "Ghost House" world is replaced with a Wii-exclusive "Golvis's Hideout" world. The Wii version's final boss is also different from the DS version's final boss. This version also doesn't include the "Pac-Moon" or the original Pac-Man within it since this version is already part of an arcade compilation. In North America, this version was also re-released again in 2010 as part of Namco Museum Megamix, also for Wii.
