One of the earliest and most iconic Google Doodle games, Pac-Man paid homage to the classic arcade game that took the gaming world by storm. Google's version of Pac-Man was a faithful recreation of the original, allowing players to guide the iconic character through the maze, gobbling up pellets and evading ghosts. This Doodle captured the nostalgia of an entire generation and introduced younger players to the timeless appeal of this beloved game.

In today’s interactive Doodle, you’ll learn a bit more about how the humble gnome is made. Then, you’ll enlist a group of gnomes to help you decorate a garden of your own! If you think that the hidden word is wrong or incorrect, let us know. We will definitely fix this as soon as possible. Playing the Oodles Board Game can provide a wide range of positive benefits for players. One important benefit is improved hand-eye coordination. Hand-eye coordination involves all visual and physical brain processes that help you move your eyes and hands in unison. Playing the game helps to sharpen one’s ability to target, grasp, and follow movements accurately. To help set context, the team designed a brief history lesson on how German garden gnomes were originally made. You can seethis introductory animation below: Go behind-the-scenes of today’s interactive Doodle, made in partnership with Tokyo-based animation studio, STUDIO 4°C!First, we identified stories and folktales from all over the country with characters that are highly recognized. Next, we connected those folktales and characters with each of the sport events included in the game. In the design process, each event champion was selected from those unique stories. The team mascots and the characters in the city such as Kappa, Yatagarasu, lion dance, were also chosen as they are very well known across Japan. Each character’s design was based on their original story image, but then adapted for the game.

Gnome figures first appeared in 13th-century Anatolia and re-emerged in 16th-century Italy. The common garden gnome originated in 19th-century Germany from the mining area of Thuringia. Here, local craftsmen are given credit for hand-crafting the gnomes as we know them—with shaggy beards and pointy hats. Character: The stone guardians. They can be a bit scary given that they’re lions, but we love how charming they are in the game’s final design. We think the fact that they serve as gatekeepers in Japanese culture made it interesting to have them serve as guides in the game. We're pleased that we were able to allude to various stories from Hokkaido in the north to Okinawa in the south in the Doodle. Besides drawing inspiration from stories known across Japan, we also hoped to convey the rich and diverse natural beauty of the country, including underwater, sandy tropical beaches, forests, and snowy mountains. Here’s how the game works: Use your trusty catapult (or trebuchet to be precise) to launch your clay gnomes into the farthest reaches of your garden. The farther your gnome travels, the more flowers you plant—and the more points you earn!Once you learn the basics, you can choose from six colorful gnomes with different shapes, weights, and bounciness. Try each one to see which gnome goes the greatest distance towards making your garden the most beautiful of all.Involving Friendly Competition: Whenever you feel like challenging yourself, involve friendly competition. Ease into more rigorous gameplay one step at a time; that way everyone can have fun! Ask your opponent to explain their moves so that you and they both come away with a better understanding of the game.
