This anti-drug PSA features a nightmarishly overwhelming version of Pac-Man
2022-04-08 00:00:00
In this anti-drug PSA, a nightmarishly overwhelming version of Pacman is used as a metaphor for what happens when one takes drugs. Basically, every time Pacman eats more of the little pills, more ghosts appear on the screen until the game becomes unmanageable. "Game Over" appears on the screen when Pacman finally dies in the flood of ghosts.
The only effect that this PSA had on me was that it made me want to go and play the real version of Pacman.
