May Mega Mayhem: Pac-Man!

Day #22: Pac-Man!

General Thoughts: This is one freakin’ old game. Starting as an arcade game, it has now moved its way into our computers and our hearts. Awww. Pac-Man is celebrating its 30th anniversary, so Google decided to embed the game on their home page, thus bringing a lot of people back down memory lane and introducing the younger generation, who were born with computers in their hands, to the simplistic old school game. The point of Pac-Man is to move a little yellow ball with a mouth around to eat dots and to avoid 4 ghosts that are trying to get you. That’s it, and yet it is so addictive and fun. You’ll keep saying, “Just one more game, just one more.”

31 Minutes of Play: I played on the computer and the controls are so simple a dog could play it. It may not get a high score, but I bet it could eat a lot of dots before the ghost got him. In my whole 31 minutes of playing, my highest score was 26,180. I had just beaten Level 4, and I got so excited because I hadn’t beaten it before that I got distracted and died instantly in Level 5. Of course I had no lives left, so it was a game over :(. So my Level 5 experience was very, very brief, but by George, I made it there!

Fun Rating: 4 Wakka Wakka Wakka, out of 5!
