There is also new ghost named "Kinky" (his other name is listed as "?????"), who wears sunglasses and is edible at all times. If Pac-Man eats him, he acts as an energizer, making the other ghosts edible. If Pac-Man doesn't catch him, he will eventually "merge" with one or more of the other ghosts which makes them larger and gives them super powers: | ||
* | * Blinky grows a pair of horns and behaves like an enraged bull; he can charge across the screen towards Pac-Man when he is in the same aisle. For reasons unknown, he also has a pair of boxing gloves. | ||
* Pinky takes on the look of a rabbit, and can hop from one side of the board to the other. His landing target is depicted by glowing concentric circles. | * Pinky takes on the look of a rabbit, and can hop from one side of the board to the other.

In later levels, there are "DASH" arrows on the ground that allow Pac-Man to rapidly zip from one end of the board to the other end. When on the dash, hitting ghosts will make them dizzy and temporarily motionless; hitting them while they are edible will eat them up. Also, there are additional powerup items. | In later levels, there are "DASH" arrows on the ground that allow Pac-Man to rapidly zip from one end of the board to the other end.
