Official Pac-Man Cookbook Released: Eat Like the Icon

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. But authors Lisa Kingsley and Jennifer Peterson have truly cooked. This 160-page hardcover features over 60 delicious recipes that are easy to prepare in your own kitchen. It's the perfect companion for game nights or video game-themed watch parties of the industry's biggest events.

While a Pac-Man cookbook might seem unusual, it's actually part of a growing trend of video game cookbooks. It's surprising it took this long for Pac-Man to join the culinary fray.

Get Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook on Amazon for just $29.99.

Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook

The cookbook is packed with a diverse range of recipes, from quick and healthy snacks to full meals for the family. Each recipe comes with easy-to-follow instructions and vibrant full-color photographs showcasing the finished dishes. As you'd expect, many recipes playfully nod to Pac-Man's iconic history. You can create a pepperoni pizza in the shape of Pac-Man, transform Blinky into a hearty tomato soup, whip up sweet cherry pocket pies, and even craft eerily accurate Ghost cake pops. The smash burger recipe particularly caught my eye. For just $30, you can pick up Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook to elevate your cooking skills and try something new in the kitchen.

We gave Secret Level a 5 out of 10 in our review, 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."
