One Little Ghost (2012) [1] [2] for the ZX81 is one version I only recently found out about. Figured it was worth mentioning here given how impressive it is for a game on the humble ZX81 machine that's well over 40 years old.

Pac-Man Vs. [1] was a commercial game on this wavelength. I don't think I ever played that one.

I was going to say the same thing. Pac-Man Vs was incredibly fun and a great party game.
