How to unlock the Retro Gamer achievement in PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC - Definitive Guide
All Credit goes to the Youtuber GawdlikeMatt's video linked above. Jump to 27:00 in the video and he will provide exact routes to follow for each round. Following his moves precisely, I was able to get this very difficult achievement in only a few attempts after hours of trying to attempt it on my own.

I made the moves that the friend in the video makes and the Ghosts simply change the routes and end up trapping me I can only get to level 6 and from there I don't know how to do it if someone knows a trick or a glitch to make it easier please let me know

Haven’t tried it myself but this guide is clearer to me.

This relatively unknown guide by Mr. Moone is what helped me clear this. The strategy is broken down as such:
1. There are 3 patterns to follow, one for round 1, one for rounds 2, 3, and 4, and one for rounds 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
2. The first two patterns are very similar, only changed in one part to avoid the light blue ghost at the beginning.
3. Don't follow a guide after you grab the power pellet in the bottom right corner. After that, it becomes more trouble than it's worth to follow it one to one. Enough of the dots have been cleared to make the remaining ones much easier.
I also have some tips of my own:
You can definitely recover after losing a life on rounds 3-5, just make sure to have at least one extra life left for round 9, since that's the most difficult one.
Lastly, be confident. If the ghosts aren't threatening you, don't be afraid to grab some out-of-the-way dots while they're shuffling around the maze. The more dots you grab without using the power pellet, the more time you have with the power pellet to push through when the ghosts are actually threatening you.

Thumbs up from me. Never thought id be able to get this ach but this video helped hugely! I did pretty much same thing the first 5 levels then 2nd pattern 6 onwards. Once you remember the 2 routes off by heart its not too bad. I lost a live always on level 5 but then went to 10 Without dying! Relief to get it done tho!

I roughly followed this solution, with a slight modification.
Round 1, there is no strategy. Just don't die. If you lose a life here, just reset.
Round 2-4, follow his strategy as it shows. No changes necessary.
Round 5-9. Follow his strategy with one change. When you are making the big box and you are in the top left corner, instead of going straight up and then straight to the right, you instead want to go down through that little L section (that is just a little up and to the left of where the ghosts come out). To me, these two L sections were the hardest ones to get consistently in the map, and with his modified strategy I was able to get them when I knew the ghosts wouldn't kill me, allowing me to do the rest of the map easily.
I hope that makes sense, good luck!
