The free version will include the Time Attack Mode in Stage 1.

The game totals 24 missions including six completely new stages and
four Mission Modes: Story, Time Attack, Exact Size Challenge and
Eternal Mode. Additionally, one Extra Stage is included with PAC-MAN
making a special appearance. Similar to the original, various control
methods are supported: Accelerometer or Virtual Pad controls, the
latter including single or double virtual pad options. Additional
content packs with past and future stages are in development, set to
release at a later date.
