Is it Pac-man day or something? Awesome.

http://www.google.com

And yes, it's playable.

My parents have the Pac Man arcade game in their basement, so I'm naturally obsessed with it. I'll bet money that I can beat anyone in Pac Man due to my teen years being spent practicing.

They should sell that thing, probably worth a good amount.

It's really not. Search it on ebay and you can find them for under $1000.

Here at work I saw that the first time I got on google today and just thought it was one of their designs for special days.

I didn't realize it was playable until hours later when I went back to google and was messing around.

Pretty cool, I think this might be their first interactive "google"?

Shit, I only got 18370. Got sloppy on the flippin' second level, then got my shit together until about the fifth or so, but got stupid trying to get a fruit and everything fell apart from there. Pretty fun stuff.

Lots of the ones on there don't work though.

But they aren't worth as many think, as you mentioned, because there are so many of them out there.

Just got 28,340 on the one at Google, I was impressed that I made it 6 levels.
