Official Pac-Man Cookbook Released: Eat Like the Icon

Insight Editions' Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook is now available for purchase on Amazon. Initially, I was skeptical about the quality of recipes from a Pac-Man-themed cookbook, but authors Lisa Kingsley and Jennifer Peterson have truly delivered. This 160-page hardcover book contains over 60 delicious, easy-to-make recipes that are perfect for hosting a game night or a video game-themed watch party of the industry's biggest events.

While the idea of a Pac-Man cookbook might seem unusual, there are actually numerous video game cookbooks already on the market. It's surprising it took this long for Pac-Man to join the trend.

You can purchase the Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook on Amazon for $29.99. The cookbook offers a wide variety of recipes, ranging from healthy quick bites to full meals suitable for the whole family. Each recipe includes easy-to-follow instructions and vibrant full-color photographs showcasing the finished dish. Many recipes creatively pay homage to Pac-Man's iconic elements. For instance, you can craft a pepperoni pizza in the shape of Pac-Man, transform Blinky into a hearty tomato soup, bake sweet cherry pocket pies, and create eerily accurate Ghost cake pops. The smash burger recipe particularly caught my attention. Grab Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook for just $30 to enhance your culinary skills and experiment with fun, new recipes in your kitchen.

In other Pac-Man news, the next game in the series is Shadow Labyrinth, which offers a unique blend of Metroidvania elements and traditional Pac-Man gameplay. It's inspired by the Secret Level episode titled Circle. Our review of Secret Level gave it a score of 5 out of 10, noting that "[w]ith a dubious selection of source material and indistinct styles of animation, Secret Level struggles to find satisfying stories for a short-form anthology."
