Description

The classic and enormously popular Pac-Man video game came out in Japan on May 21, 1980, and by October of that year it was released in the United States. The yellow, pie-shaped Pac-Man character, who travels around a maze trying to eat dots and avoid four hunting ghosts, quickly became an icon of the 1980s. To this day, Pac-Man remains one of the most popular video games in history, and its innovative design has been the focus of numerous books and academic articles.

 

The game was created by Namco in Japan, and released in the U.S. by Midway. By 1981, approximately 250 million games of Pac-Man were being played in the U.S. each week on 100,000 Pac-Man machines. Since then, Pac-Man has been released on nearly every video game platform. On May 21, 2010, the Google Doodle even featured a playable version to mark the 30th anniversary of Pac-Man's release.

 

This Series will take you on series of roads from Gunns Plains to Upper Natone.

All containers have a pencil and a log sheet.

Hi DEZ055
A trip to the North West Coast saw many caches gathered.
This series was some of those targeted.
It was great to drive roads not done before.
The series was very enjoyable, the caches well presented and generally easy to find.
Those not done will be the goal of a future trip, not far into the remainder of the year.
TFTC, TFTS
Cheers

Took the van up to Pioneer Park for the long weekend as a caching base.
GPS was a bit everywhere on this one so initially we were a bit off GZ but turned around and there it was. TFTC

Again earth movement in this area had caused the hide to be hard to identify and access. A little careful digging soon unearthed the cache container. Internally it was a little damp but the log was quite dry.

Thanks for another PACMAN cache DEZ055. It was nice to see the wildflowers flowering but disappointing to see the rubbish that had been dumped in the area.

Staying at Burnie with whitewebbs we targetted this series of caches.

We enjoyed exploring the roads less travelled.

Many thanks dez055 for creating this geoart.

While staying in Burnie we headed out caching with Tassie Trekkers to locate the Pacman geoart that has appeared since our last visit. Thanks DEZ055 for creating and hiding this great series. It was a lovely drive around the forests, sometimes on roads we had not been on before. TFTC

Another quick find with just a hint of the cache container being spotted on approach.
Guess we're getting back near civilisation as there's a bit of litter in this area.
Thanks.
