How Cool Is This — Play Pac Man on Google Maps
How cool is this: you can now play Pac Man on Google Maps.
Just in time for April Fools Day tomorrow, the folks at Google have turned Google Maps into a giant Pac Man board, complete with ghosts, cherries, and sound effects.
Simply go to a neighborhood that has enough roads to play the game on (roads in a grid seem to work best - if not, it'll tell you) and in the lower left corner, click on the Pac Man board to turn Google Maps into the legendary video game.
For example, I Google Map'd downtown Atlantic City and it turned North Michigan and Atlantic Avenues into a Pac Man board.
Here are some cool South Jersey places to play Pac Man:
- The really confusing traffic circle by Atlantic City International Airport
- Downtown Ocean City
- The little circle down by the Cape May Lighthouse
- Downtown Hammonton
- a portion of Ridge Avenue in EHT
