海角大神

You can already get your Google Maps directions in bicycle routes, walking paths, or public transportation.

Now your route comes in Pac-Man.

Just in time for April Fool's Day, Google created a 鈥淧ac-Man鈥� viewing option on Google Maps that turns your maps and routes into a version of the arcade game, complete with point pellets and ghosts in hot pursuit. This time, however, they鈥檙e racing down your neighborhood鈥檚 streets.

When you open Google Maps, you鈥檒l see a small Pac Man screen shot in the lower left hand corner. Click on that, and your view will be transformed into the arcade cult classic. One caveat: there needs to be enough roads to play. Pac-Man doesn鈥檛 dive into the ocean. But otherwise, you can go pretty much everywhere. If you get sick of playing on your town鈥檚 streets, hit the 鈥淚鈥檓 feeling lucky鈥� button and it will take you and Pac-Man to places all around the world. Even the Taj Mahal, .

, Google offers a few more clues of famous places where Pac-Man may pop up:

• Head to the valley of the sun and earn your grade in the art of the game.
• How well can you navigate the radiating streets of the distrito federal?
• Victory is like gothic glockenspiel musik to our ears.
• PAC-MAN and Ms. PAC-MAN can't agree on which side is prettier: the American or the Canadian. Which side do you fall on, eh?
• Whether they're flashing blue or sporting their natural colors, Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde are always kakkoii. Even Vogue agrees they're living in the trendiest of neighborhoods.
• After a chat with the Sphinx, PAC-MAN sounds more like "Dokki Dokki".
• Pause game play to admire Chagall's stained glass windows and have a bit of chocolate.

Plus, they tease that more clues are on the way.

This isn鈥檛 the first time Google has brought Pac-Man to its main pages. In 2010, Google dedicated one of its Doodle鈥檚 to the game, letting Googlers play Pac-Man on a "GOOGLE" shaped maze.

No word yet on whether this April Fool's fun will last beyond April 1. But until then, Pac-Man is on the loose.聽
