Madison Square Park and Flatiron Building in Pac-Man mode on Google Maps

If you read in the news yesterday that you could play Pac-Man in Google Maps, but didn’t get to it–do not fret. It’s still available. Just navigate to Google Maps on your desktop browser and you’ll see the normal option to toggle to Google Earth in the bottom left, and a new icon to toggle to Pac-Man mode. Most fun is that you can choose anywhere around the world, and that becomes your game frame. There’s sound too, but luckily it defaults to mute so your coworkers may not hear the siren sounds coming from your computer.

Here’s DUMBO:
