Drawing on Brunei legends, could a video game be developed around historical Brunei? @radleyfarrens explains in the survey:

Basically, this game would fall under a social simulator title about a young man entrusted by his aging father to build a village from the ground up during the reign of Awang Alak Betatar. One of the major aims is to give a relive the perspective of Ancient Brunei and the the related history and lifestyle of that era.

(Their actual progress is on them, so don't be hatin' on us. We just think the map is nice!)

This map shows the route between ITB (now UTB) and Tutong's Pantai Seri Kenangan (Seri Kenangan Beach) but helpfully scribbles in other exits and traffic lights, and of course, a friendly green creature in the river...

Brunei Maps: Pac-Man!

Images via: Pac-Man’s Trip to Brunei

You might remember how Pac-Man and the four ghosts invaded Google Maps in Google’s 2015 April Fool’s (read more on The Next Web).

Loved the write-up from @borneoborn-blog on bringing Pac-Man around certain parts of Brunei, including Tutong and Temburong:

In case you didn’t notice, one of the ghosts was waiting in line for his Nasi Katok, a lunch staple for the frugal/broke/fans. I forgot to ask the ghost about it but is Nasi Katok still a dollar?

Anyway, Pac-Man got hungry so, I took him to Tutong Town to try our traditional pulut panggang but he wanted to try a non-American and Halal Jollibee. SO STUBBORN.
