A real-life Pac-Man inspired maze is coming to Dublin next year

A real-life Pac-Man inspired maze is coming to Dublin next year in the ultimate retro gaming experience.

The immersive event will be hitting the capital in March 2020 – so you better mark the calendars.

The massive arcade-style maze will have you and your pals dodging the ghosts left, right and center – while trying to collect different pieces of fruit.

But that won’t be your only goal.

Anyone tackling the maze will also need to complete a coded puzzle. And if you want to make it to the top of the leaderboard, make sure to finish the puzzle (and gather all the fruit) in the quickest time.

But be careful: if one of the ghosts finds you first, you’ll lose a life – and if you lose three, you’re out.

Once you have managed to escape the maze, you can then head over to the ’80s themed Pixel Room – which is going to be chock-a-block with OG games and other activities.

It’s all kicking off on Saturday, March 7, 2020 – with tickets priced beginning at €20 per person, and multiple times to tackle the maze throughout the day.

An exact location for the Dublin maze hasn’t been specified just yet, but we’re keeping our eyes peeled.

You can find out more information about the maze, or book tickets, here.
