Gameplay and Controls: The controls are very fluid and responsive – I don’t have anything negative to say about them.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
68 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I can tell that World 2 Re-Pac was given a much higher budget compared to World 1 Re-Pac, featuring actual voice acting even for cutscenes that never originally had them as opposed to replacing the voices with gibberish.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics, level design, how much of a love letter it is to the original and how much is improved upon.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game is still challenging in the later half (as mildly challenging as the Original Game was to begin. Which the Original was NEVER a hard game anyways) and there's also a very challenging Bonus World that you have to go through after finishing the story that's extremely difficult.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
They also gave Pac-Man some new moves which make both platforming and combat significantly easier; You can perform kicks while grounded (previously only possible while airborne), you can throw pac-dot projectiles at enemies, you can perform super slams which give you more height and stun enemies, and you can hover in the air for up to 2 seconds if you miss a jump.
