They are just a search away. In this post, i will show you how to get to these games and have some fun. Lets get to it!
The first game you can play on google is Pac-man.
Pac-man is a very famous old arcade game. Google introduced a version of pac-man called 'pac-man doodle' on the games 30th anniversary.
Steps to follow-
Navigate to your google home page and search- ' Play Pac man'.
You will see a page looking like this-
Just press play and have fun. You have to use the up, down, right and left arrows to play the game.
When you press the play button, this screen will appear-
A lot of people like me like to play the game in full screen which unfortunately isn't available here. But, there is a way to play Pac man in full screen.
This is what you have to do-
Navigate to your google home page and search- 'google doodle games'. this screen will appear-
2. Click the side arrow and at the end you will find the name and logo of Pac-man.
3. Click on it and the game will appear in full screen. The way to play the game remains the same.
4. There are many other interesting games you could try here.
Some rules of the game
Pac-man will move according to the arrows you press on your keyboard.
Every yellow dot on the screen carries 10 points.
Throughout the game, there will be four ghosts chasing you, do not let them eat you!
You have total three lives in the game.
There are four 'power pellets' on the four corners of the screen. Eat them and you can eat the ghosts and earn points. Remember! You can only eat them for a certain amount of time. Once they stop flashing blue, they will eat you, that is Pac man.
You will see some fruits in the game while playing. Do not leave them! They have points.
Once you finish all the yellow dots, a new game will start but you won't get any new lives.
Do try it, its fun!
