Tuesday Time-Waster: PacMan

Google has done something fun again: You can play PacMan on Google maps!

It’s pretty simple. Go to Google maps, preferably to your own neighborhood for extra fun. Look at the lower left corner; see the PacMan game square? Click that.

You may have to move the map around if Google tells you it won’t work in that area. It needs enough connecting roads in order to play the game.

But then you should get the start screen. (This is not my neighborhood, in case you’re a nutcase that wants to hunt me down — like the Canada geese have been doing to me lately.)

Use the keyboard arrows to move PacMan around. If you’re like me and are too busy taking screenshots, you might not last too long:

So, there you go. I have a feeling Google timed this for tomorrow’s April Fools Day, so I don’t know if it will work for very long.
