Yes, I hope so too.
After searching for Puck Man and Snapper, the story goes in an unexpected direction. Apparently a clone of Pac-Man was developed for BBC Micro by Acornsoft in 1982.
Namco of course went after them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapper_(video_game) http://bbcmicro.co.uk/game.php?id=14 http://bbcmicro.co.uk/game.php?id=2474
