Play google pacman game: Play pacman on google

Fun, right? Yeah, I tried to play a couple of times this morning - realizing quickly that I should stick to the full-size arcade version. But in the middle of a game, the phone rang and I hit the mute button on my keyboard and went back to work.

A couple of hours later - and numerous browser windows and browser tabs later - I clicked on the link for a news video and had no audio. I hit the volume button, taking the machine out of mute mode, and was surprised to hear what sounded like a siren coming from my machine.

What the heck is that, I wondered? I have a Mac so the idea of some anti-virus pop-up warning going off in the background was unlikely. Plus, the computer wasn’t slowing down or showing any other signs of malfunctioning. So I started to shut down completely - but when I quit Firefox, the siren suddenly stopped.

With the problem solved, I halted the complete shutdown and went back to work, still unsure of what exactly had happened.

Later, I opened a window on Chrome, which is set to open directly to Google, and within seconds, I heard that familiar tune that tells me that Pac-Man is about to start. When the familiar wah-wah-wah-wah-wah sound started shortly after, I recognized the siren sound from earlier. And then it all made sense - kind of.

It’s cool that there’s an interactive game on Google’s logo - a first, I understand - but did Google have to make it auto-start? And where’s the mute button on the game?

I know… boo-hoo for me. Just click away and the game goes away, right? Not exactly. And here’s where it gets weird - at least for me. When I launch Firefox, the browser does just as it should - it opens a window to this blog, which I’ve set as the default home page. But then, within seconds, there was that Pac-Man tune again. There were no other windows open and no other tabs open. And yet, Pac-Man sound is still on.
