[edit] Storyline

Once when Pac-Man was still young, he spent a summer at the home of the great Pac-Master for training to fight the ghosts in Pac-land. During Pac-Mans training, Pac-Master's family goes to the power pellet Harvest Festival and Pac-Man goes too. The Ghosts (possibly young too) decide to summon Golvis, a ghost so strong he was sent to space by the ghosts themselves. Castle Pac is celebrating the large crop of power pellets gathered, when the Harvest Festival is suddenly disturbed by a UFO from which Golvis comes, in an attempt to save the Pacs, Pac-Master chomps on a power pellet. But while the other ghosts run blue, Golvis' ghost tail is partly blue. Now Golvis, who uses his alive guitar sidekick (possibly named Jack) to turn Pac-masters family into sphere-like Pacs (they are the same just without arms or legs), kidnaps Pac-Master and his family .

Now with the help of a little Fairy, Crystal, Pac-Man (who has been put on Golvis' sphere curse) must save his family and girlfriend (who will eventually become Ms. Pac-Man) from the evil Golvis and Ghosts, with their evil plot to turn Pac-Land into Ghost-Land.
