In celebration of
pacman 30th anniversary, here are some fun facts about the iconic game: Pac-Man was designed by Toru Iwatani and released by Namco in 1980. It revolutionized arcade gaming by introducing vibrant characters and addictive gameplay. The game's "ghosts" — Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde — each had distinct personalities and behaviors, adding layers of strategy. Pac-Man's design was inspired by a pizza missing a slice, and its simplicity made it accessible to players of all ages. It became a cultural phenomenon, spawning merchandise, cartoons, and even a hit single ("Pac-Man Fever"). Today, Pac-Man remains a beloved symbol of retro gaming nostalgia.
