This 160-page recipe features over 60 dishes based on the Pac-Man series ranging from Inky’s Wings to Pac-Mac ‘n cheese. Each recipe is presented with step-by-step instructions and full-color photography to guide you through the dish’s preparation.

Pac-Man fans can also look forward to a new Pac-Man Special Edition Wireless Controller from PowerA that looks like it’s wrapped in a level straight out of Pac-Man’s arcade days.
