Tomy Watchman: Monster Hero (トミーウォッチマン・モンスターヒーロー Tomī U~otchiman Monsutāhīrō) is a digital watch game released in 1982 (?) by Tomy, based on Pac-Man. A handheld model was also released with no watchband and a stand on the back. Despite Tomy owning the rights to produce Pac-Man products at the time, there is nothing Pac-Man-branded on the product at all, and the visuals were entirely unique. It was later released in North America by Nelsonic with genuine Pac-Man branding and different graphics. It is a simple Pac-Man game with two modes: Game A and Game B. Game A is similar to the arcade original, while in Game B the maze walls randomly change position. It is worth noting that there are two Nelsonic Pac-Man watches; another version features the Tomy LSI Game version of Pac-Man instead. They can be differentiated by their controls, with the Monster Hero version featuring a joystick, and the other having four directional buttons.
