Pac-Man
This hugely popular game, developed and released in the year 1980, can today be played by a simple Google search of the term Pacman’. When you hit enter, the Google Doodle on Pac Man will appear on the screen and you can click on Play to start the game.
The gameplay is simple. The play area is like a maze, filled with coins. You, as Pac-Man, need to collect all the coins but there will be ghosts all along to stop you from doing so. Therefore, you need to do your best to find your way around the maze, avoiding the ghosts and collecting the coins. Besides, there are special coins (power pellets) which are bigger than the other to help you fight the ghosts. When you chance upon this coin, the ghosts will turn blue in colour. They are rendered ineffective for a brief period of time. Look for more of these coins to protect yourself from the ghosts. And when possible, attack the ghosts when they are blue in colour as this will help you collect extra points. Collecting a certain amount of power pellets will also unlock a special fruit that gives you more points.
