PacMan

PacMan is a very popular arcade game if not the one that “started it all”. Created by Tohru Iwatani for Namco, it was released in Japan in 1979 and became an instant hit. A few of us know that the hero was first named “PuckMan” evidently due to his shape. However, before its release in the United States, the title was changed to “PacMan” because PuckMan was an easy target for vandals to convert into a vulgarity. Nowadays, the game spread everywhere on the Web, and it can be easily found in many portals. Meet “Blinky”, “Pinky”, “Inkey” (original name “Inky”) and “Clyde”! Have fun! Play now !

Pacman is back! Once the game begins, you navigate your PacMan around the maze "eating" all of the dots. You must avoid the goblins also moving around the maze... these goblins will chase and "kill" your PacMan. The red dots (look more like squares) give your PacMan the ability to "kill" the goblins for a short period of time. The goblins will change colors to indicate they are vulnerable - they will also run from your PacMan. Killing the goblins will give you additional points. Killing all of the goblins (before time runs out) will give you the most points per goblin.
