Play Pac-Man on Cincinnati streets in Google Maps

Cincinnati

Almost any local street in any city or town can now become part of a Pac-Man maze.

Even the unique layouts of Greater Cincinnati's iconic neighborhood and thoroughfares are available for game play.

Google Maps makes it possible. It works like this:

1.) Open Google Maps and type in any street address, or hover over most landscapes depicted in Google Maps anywhere in the world. This can became a Pac-Man maze with one click.

2.) There will be a Pac-Man icon in the lower left hand corner of your computer screen. For a preview of the area your street-maze will encompass, right-click on the icon and hold down.

3.) Release the mouse to enter into game mode.

4.) Play!

And while you're at it, try The Enquirer's Top 4 street mazes from around some of Greater Cincinnati's iconic neighborhoods and destinations.

1.) Over-the-Rhine/Washington Park

The little ghosts practically chase your right into Washington Park's gazebo.

2.) Great American Ballpark

No, Google Maps won't let you get onto the Reds' field, but you can still gobble up dots and fruit bonuses on Pete Rose Way.

3.) Mt. Adams

A must-play. Pac-Man has as much difficulty navigating Mt. Adams narrow, twisting streets as you do.

4.) Covington/John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge

Just like the real-life bridge, there's only two lanes in the Google Maps Pac-Man version of the Roebling Suspension Bridge.
