What is pacman

Pac-Man is an arcade game released in 1980. It is a maze game invented by Toru Iwatani. Pac-Man eats pellets and runs from ghosts named Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde. Pac-Man also has four power pellets per maze. For a short time, they allow him to eat the ghosts, which always reappear. The game is never supposed to end. However, when the 256th maze appears, the right side shows various letters and numbers. Because of this bug, players cannot go to the next screen.
For a couple of years after Pac-Man first came out, if people wanted to play, they had to do it at an arcade. When the home edition was released in 1982, the graphics were not very good. Control was not as smooth either. However, Americans were happy with it.
Almost 20 years after the game came out, Billy Mitchell made history. On July 3, 1999, he became the first person to get the highest possible score (3,333,360 points). It took him six hours to get to the 256th maze without losing any lives.
Pac-Man is a symbol for the golden age of video arcade games. Jerry Buckner and Gary Garcia wrote the hit song "Pac-Man Fever" at the height of the game's popularity. Women really liked this video game because the characters are so cute. There are 23 different games in the Pac-Man series. They have been released on most home systems.
