wd ya mean

when green flag clicked
forever
wait (1.2) secs
glide (2) secs to x: (pick random (-200) to (200)) y: (pick random (-200) to (200))
end

when green flag clicked
forever
move (6) steps
if (touching [map v]) then
set [random v] to (pick random (1) to (2))
if ((random) = (1)) then
turn cw (90) degrees

else
turn cw (-90) degrees
end
end

You can adjust the numbers to fit with your idea.

If you're making a pacman game, as in with a maze, you'd need to make it so that the ghosts can move around the maze correctly, following the paths and not going through walls or whatever. In that case, just having a pick random block wouldn't work.

I'm probably really overcomplicating this, but: you could make the maze tile-based, storing the location of each tile in a list. Then make it so that the ghosts can use the list to determine all the possible routes from its position in the list, and then pick one at random. However, it's much easier said than done.

this should work
