Collector’s Clips: Pac-Man Rub-Off Game

Submitted by on February 23, 2010 – 11:18 am3 Comments

Welcome to 1980 and the era of Pac-Man Fever. I recently found half a dozen of these unscratched trading cards, carefully preserved from my youth. They were the Big Get inside the packs. Most of the set was silly stickers with Pac-Man and the ghosts cracking wise in word balloons.

The game is pretty sweet. You start at Pac-Man and then scratch off a continuous path, stopping only when you uncover three enemy ghosts. As I recall, there were only four or five board layouts, so if you could recognize which card type you had after noting the pattern of revealed elements, you could anticipate the location of the ghosts and rack up a high score. Call it the first cardboard-based cheat code. Anybody want to play?
