Espacios (Pronounced ESS-PA-SEE-OH, or ESS-PA-KEE-OH.) are a species of Corruption that bear a strong resemblance to Pac-Man because of their own "payload." Additionally, Espacios are the base variant of the Espacio species. Espacio, in real life, is a virus that sets a 25 minute timer once it infects the computer. Upon reaching the time limit, it opens a game of Pac-Man. If the user closes the game, the virus will restart the timer again, but now with half the time (12 and a half minutes).
