30 years ago tomorrow, the 22nd of May, the first Pac-Man game was released in Japan by Namco. Pac-Man is often credited with being a landmark in video game history, and is among the most famous arcade games of all time.
Today the Google Logo becomes a playable game for the first time ever as you can play Pac-Man by clicking on the “Insert Coin” button which has replaced the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button. Click on it twice and you get to play with Ms. Pac-Man in a two-player fashion. Steer Pac-Man with the arrows and Ms. Pac-Man with WASD.
