Pac-Man Party (2010) for the Wii.

My daughter loves Pac-Man and she loves the Wii—so this felt like a no-brainer. It’s a four-player party game in the Mario Party mold, only with Namco’s mascot running the show instead of Nintendo’s. The back of the box promises five themed worlds and 50 mini-games, which is more than enough to keep a kid busy.

At the very least, it’s an excuse to get my daughter to play something social, instead of zoning out solo.

And hey—if party games aren’t your thing, the disc also comes loaded with arcade-perfect versions of Pac-Man, Dig Dug, and Galaga. A nice bonus for parents who grew up in the arcade era.
