This game was only officially released in Japan, but a variant of the arcade program looks as though Namco may have intended to release the game outside of Japan under the title ''Pac-Man & Chomp Chomp''.  In this variation, Miru is altered to resemble Pac-Man's dog from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon.  As a dog, Chomp Chomp seems a little more suited for the role of someone who absentmindedly gathers items in one place (such as in a freshly dug hole in the back yard.)  However, this version was never officially released.  In fact, no home conversion of this game has ever been released outside of Japan.  Even in Japan, the only known official conversion of this game is on Volume 3 of the Namco History Collection for Windows 95.
