Play Google Pacman on your iPhone, iPad, & iPod Touch (No Flash)

Play Google Pacman on your iPhone, iPad, & iPod Touch (No Flash)

Here’s something that Steve Jobs should be proud of. The new Google Pacman Logo game is not built in flash which means you can play it on your iPhone, iPad, and / or your iPod Touch.

I just pulled up Google on my iPhone and of course I had to first switch to the “classic” Google view on my iPhone Safari browser.

But once I switch over to the Google classic view on my iPhone, the Google Pacman logo game fired right up.

I did not get any sound however – so maybe I did something wrong, but I couldn’t get sound to come through on my iPhone while playing the Google Logo Pacman game.

And this “no sound” issue might also be isolated only to the iPhone. Since I don’t have an iPad or an iPod Touch, I can see what happens with the sound when playing the Google Pacman game.

Google Pacman Logo is Javascript, HTML, and CSS (No Flash)

In a move that even Steve Jobs would be proud of, Google built the Pacman Logo out of Javascript, HTML, and CSS – no flash anywhere to be found.

Steve Jobs doesn’t like flash, as was obvious with the Steve Jobs ‘Thoughts on Flash’ letter.

So do you think that even Steve Jobs might have been proud of the Google Pacman Logo?

  • Millions of web-sites can do all sorts of things... without a single line of FLASH ever needed.

    If you've convinced yourself otherwise... you need to wake up.

    • I hate websites that are 100% Flash but when it comes to audio and video I go with Flash over Java. HTML5 will solve that but right now HTML4 needs some help either way.

  • For those of you who missed the opportunity to play the Google version of Pac Man, now you can do so at:
    It looks identical how it used to look when that logo appeared onwww.google.com
    and it should continue working on the iPad plus all devices it was working on.
