This year, Google has decided that its 2025 Halloween Doodle will represent a dual celebration. On one hand, this creative redesign of the company’s logo commemorates the October 31st holiday, and on the other, it marks the 45th anniversary of the iconic video game Pac Man.
As could not be otherwise, this year’s Halloween Doodle features a mini-game in which you must help Pac Man complete eight mazes in various haunted houses. Although this entertaining mission will only be accessible from Google’s homepage today and tomorrow, you will always be able to play it through this link.
In order to enjoy some time with this new version of the arcade classic, you only need to access Google from any device and click on the Doodle. Please note that depending on the device you use to play, the controls will be somewhat different: from a computer, you may use the keyboard arrows; from a mobile phone, you must guide Pac Man by moving your finger across the screen.
For this special occasion, four of the eight mazes included in the game are unique haunted house designs developed in collaboration with Bandai Namco Entertainment, the parent company of Pac Man.
“Your mission is to guide PAC-MAN through these festive levels, helping him devour every dot and avoid the iconic, colorful ghosts: Blinky, Inky, Pinky, and Clyde. Pay close attention to the interior of each haunted house, as its layout directly reflects the personality of the ghost who inhabits it. Collect power pellets to turn the tables and pursue the ghosts yourself,” explains Google.
As an additional note, let us inform you that, although Google has taken this occasion to honor Pac Man, his 45th birthday was actually celebrated on May 22 of this year. Yes, Pac Man is a Gemini, and it does, indeed, suit him rather well.
