Wormwood

Wormwood is an evil tree who serves as the secondary antagonist of the 2002 video game Pac Man World 2 by Namco. He was given the task of spoiling the Golden Fruit by Spooky as the fruit had kept Spooky inmprisoned in the roots of Wormwood’s brother the Golden Fruit Tree.

==Role in game=

After Pac Man meets Wormwood in Ghost Island’s bayou the tree gives him the deadly task of finding the way through his maze which he created to keep Pac Man busy so he wouldn’t make it back to Pac Land before Spooky destroyed it. After Pac Man completes the maze Wormwood will force him to defeat all of his skeletal minions around the swamp before the sands of time run out(Pac Man has a certain amount of time to complete the task before he is instantly killed.) Once all skeletons are defeated and Pac Man makes it back around to Wormwood the flames in the tree’s face burn out, killing him as a result.
