In this keyboard-controlled Pac-Man clone, the player is in charge of Shaw Communications' newest mascot, the Helping Hand, who must avoid pesky cats (?) and collect four icons from the corners of the screen-wrapping maze (each icon representing one of Shaw's telecommunications services) before returning to the now-ecstatic customer at the centre of the screen. Collecting running shoes will temporarily endow an invulnerability to the cats. [source:mobygames]
