  • Arcade Video game kit published 43 years ago:

    Piranha © 1981 GL.

    A "Pac-Man" upgrade, the graphics have been drastically altered to present an underwater theme. You control a red piranha, while you are chased around by 4 squid-looking monsters.

    Most of the maze in this game is wide open. You are free to move about various open portions of the maze, but so are the monsters.

    One central tunnel is present on the sides, as well as another central tunnel on the top and bottom of the screen.

    TRIVIA
    This upgrade of Pac-Man was released as a conversion kit in November 1981. It comes in an upgrade board, much like the original "Ms. Pac-Man" does.
