May 22, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The Google Doodles are well known to everyone. Google changes its logo on its main search page to various signs and logos on certain occasions and events. Today is the 30th anniversary of the popular video game Pac Man which is regarded as a landmark in the history of games. Google has changed its logo to an interactive doodle today which allows the users to play the games on the search page. Possibly this is the first ever interactive doodle Google has come up with.

Pac Man became massively popular during the 1980s when personal computing was in its infancy, to be honest. The users who want to search on the Google homepage can do so and those who are willing to try the game need to click on the button named insert coin. However, Google is not going to keep the interactive doodle on its home page for long as it has revealed. The internet users can avail the feature for 2 days at most. The online game resembles original Pac Man. The people using Safari browser may face some problems in playing the game though.

The game includes 255 levels and one can play using the arrow keys on the keyboard. The Doodles have always attracted the attention of the web users and the latest Pac man doodle is no exception. Already a lot of web users have posted their experience of playing the classic game on Google home page on various social networking sites. This year Google has come up with various though provoking and interesting doodles including the Hubble telescope anniversary one.
