The fruit is how PAC-MAN™ earns points, which in turn helps to earn additional lives, like how Genuine Cat Parts allow customers to get more life out of their machines to get the job done. Helping with fleet management, financing and maintenance, Cat Services gives customers an extra efficiency boost in the field.Ĭaterpillar also stayed true to the original game by including fruit bonuses, represented by Cat parts boxes.

Archie Lyons, creative director, global brand strategy and activation for Caterpillar. “Cat GRADE with 3D enabled the workers to only handle material one time for digging, loading, hauling and dumping,” explains J. Support equipment to construct the gameboard, also using Cat GRADE with 3D to ensure they followed the same plan, included multiple field prep Cat dozers, Cat wheel loaders, a 323 excavator, trucks and water wagons. Roughly 6,880 yd 3 (195 m 3) of cut/fill dirt was removed to build the maze that was comprised of 151 corners and 4-ft-tall (1.2-m) walls. In total, 70 labor hours were required for the 336 to create the life-size gameboard. The original PAC-MAN™ gameboard design was loaded into the Cat GRADE with 3D system on the 336 Next Gen excavator, eliminating the need for stakes and grade checkers, saving time in the construction. We were astonished by the final product.” It’s amazing how Caterpillar’s equipment was able to precisely recreate the iconic PAC-MAN™ maze in the real world on such a grand scale.
