April Fools Day (April 1st) is tomorrow (though in Australia it already is). The day of pranks, laughter, and lots of salty tears. But Google is celebrating it a different way this year, a way to celebrate the early era of video games (the retro era).
And that is Playing Ms. Pac Man in Google Maps..anywhere on the planet. Turn your typical streets into an actual playable level to eat pellets, and run from the ghosts until you get a power pellet.
This is hilarious. It plays just like the original Ms. Pac Man! Anyone can play this, RIGHT NOW! Go now, get into the Google Maps app on your phone or your computer browser, and click on the Ms. Pac Man icon. Anything within the bounding box, becomes the game!
I was able to turn my neighborhood into a Ms. Pac Man level. This..this is so amazing that it’s scary to see how well this works! I even managed to turn a huge interchange into a level, and it was SO. MUCH. FUN!! Try this out for yourself! It’s FREE, and it’s AWESOME!! 😀
Thank you, Google. Bravo!
