Official Pac-Man Cookbook Now Available

Insight Editions' Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook is now available on Amazon, and if you're like me, you might have been a bit skeptical about the quality of recipes from a Pac-Man-themed cookbook. However, authors Lisa Kingsley and Jennifer Peterson have truly delivered. This 160-page hardcover book includes over 60 delicious, easy-to-make recipes perfect for enjoying at home. It's an ideal addition to your game night or video game-themed watch party during major industry events.

While a Pac-Man cookbook might seem unusual, there are surprisingly many video game cookbooks already on the market. It's astonishing that it took this long for Pac-Man to join the fray.

You can purchase Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook on Amazon for $29.99. The book offers a diverse range of recipes, from healthy snacks to full family meals. Each recipe features easy-to-follow instructions and vibrant full-color photographs showcasing the finished dish. As expected, many recipes pay homage to Pac-Man's iconic elements. You can create a pepperoni pizza in the shape of Pac-Man, transform Blinky into a hearty tomato soup, bake sweet cherry pocket pies, and craft eerily accurate Ghost cake pops. The smash burger recipe particularly caught my eye. For just $30, you can enhance your cooking skills and try something new in the kitchen with Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook.

In other Pac-Man news, the next addition to the beloved yellow character's video game collection is Shadow Labyrinth. This game merges the Metroidvania genre with classic Pac-Man mechanics, inspired by the Secret Level episode titled "Circle." Our review of Secret Level gave it a score of 5, 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."
