Pac-Man - A Popular Arcade Game

Pac-Man is an arcade game that was designed by Namco and distributed by Midway in the United States in 1980. This game was a raging hit from the moment it was launched and its popularity continues to this day.

This was the first kind of game that was equally interesting to boys as well as girls. Due to this fact it has been credited to have created a landmark in the history of video games. It grossed over $2.5 billion in the 1990s.

The game revolves around the character known as Pac-Man. The player guides him through a maze, which is full of pellets. This character eats these pellets. After all pellets are eaten from the screen, the player advances to the next level.

There are four 'enemies' present within the maze. These are Blinky, Clyde, Inky, and Pinky. Even if one of these touches the character, the player loses a life out of the 3 lives given. If the player loses all three lives, the game ends. The player also has access to 4 power pellets which have the power of making Pac-Man invincible for a short duration.And during this period he can eat his enemies, and the enemies are blue in color. As the player advances in the game, the time period for which the enemies stay blue becomes shorter. Before the enemies turn back to their normal color they flash the color white and then become normal.

The enemies are generally called as ghosts or monsters. Although these seem to roam about the maze without any particular direction, they are strictly programmed. The red monster is programmed to chase Pac-Man, whereas the blue monster tries to position itself in front of his mouth. The pink monster behaves in a similar way. The orange enemy mostly chases him, but when he gets too close, it moves toward the left side of the maze.

This game was designed by a Namco employee and it took one year to complete along with a team of nine members. This game is based on the concept of eating and the Japanese name that was given to it is "Pakkuman". Initially it was called as Puck Man in English, but when it was chosen to be launched in the US, the name was changed from "Puck Man" to what it is called now to avoid misspelling and vulgarization of the word.www.freepacman.org/
