BiffSplitkins Posted March 31, 2015 #1 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Happy April Fools Day! It's technically not April 1 yet in the United States, but it's time to start pranking in other parts of the world and Google is already getting in on the fun.Google Maps now has a "Pac-Man" mode, allowing users to play the classic arcade game on any map. Seriously -- go to maps.google.com and type in any city or address, and then click on the Pac-Man icon at the bottom left of the screen. For example, choosing "Syracuse, N.Y." turns the Syracuse University campus into an 8-bit video game with ghosts in the Standart parking lot area, waiting to chase the pellet-eating hero. Users can play by inserting coins clicking arrow keys left, right, up and down or using their mouse (mice?) to click directions to move in.
