I picked this for my first ag batch didn't come with yeast says pacman yeast is the recommended can I use any others ?
 
Looking at the Wyeast spec sheet, you may have a few other options.

Here's the Pacman:
A versatile yeast strain from one of Oregon’s leading craft breweries. Pacman is alcohol tolerant, flocculent, attenuates well and will produce beers with little to no diacetyl. Very mild fruit complements a dry, mineral finish making this a fairly neutral strain. Pacman’s flavor profile and performance makes it a great choice for use in many different beer styles.

Alc. Tolerance 12% ABV
Flocculation med-high
Attenuation 72-78%
Temp. Range 60-72°F (15-22°C)

You may have good luck with Wyeast 1056 (American Ale) or Whitelabs WLP001.
 
Did you consider WLP-090, the San Diego Super yeast? Whitelabs says it's similar to WLP-001, but faster and with higher alcohol tolerance. Flocc. is med-high.
White Labs
