Pac-Man invades the streets of Google Maps 

Google has updated Google Maps with the ability to play Pac-Man instead of looking at a road map to your destination.

It didn't work well when I typed in my location, due to the fact I live out in the middle of nowhere. This is despite the fact I am 4 miles from town and live on a major 2-lane state highway that everyone drives like a maniac on. Every once in a while, folks even decide to drive through my fence when the mood strikes.

So, just know this when typing in your location - especially if there's aren't very many roads around you.

The mini-game is rather fun, and all you have to do is use your mouse to drag or click where you want Pac-Man to go.

At least Google creates fun for April Fool's Day instead of trickery.
