Google was updating the game with the passing of the hours, and the latest version it released has a small “Mute” button as you can see in the lower left corner of the following image: The download link is at the end of this article, but before clicking there are a few things you might be interested in knowing: If you want to see how it looks, you have it right here: Įven I, who many times have said that I don’t like video games, fell into the temptation to enter a couple of times (or a couple dozen, it’s the same), and decided that I had to download it even if it was just to have it as a souvenir, which was more difficult that in it seemed because it’s not a regular Flash game, but it’s a very nifty example of what can be done with CSS and JavaScript.įortunately, Skizo from UndeRealM had the same idea and created a near-exact copy that is available to download and play offline.

The classic Pac-Man has caused hype once again on its 30th anniversary, and all because of Google. What follows is the original version of this article that was posted in 2010, including that first and now broken Pac-Man (which hadn’t been cloned by me but by another developer who later abandoned the project). To download it and play it offline, visit its GitHub repository and read the instructions. I’ve extracted this new Pac-Man myself from Google’s website and you can see it here (this one does have sound, click on it to activate it): However, in the decade that has passed since this doodle came out, Google has continued updating it and has ended up rewriting it using modern technologies. The original Google Pac-Man as it was released in 2010 still works, but it no longer has sound, as it used Adobe Flash for it which is a technology that has been deprecated. The one seen right below is an updated version. Update 10/12/20: There are now 2 different Pac-Men on this post.
