Despite advertising stating that the game was "Exciting!" and "New!", Pac-Man Plus is essentially identical to the original Pac-Man, with only minor gameplay tweaks and altered graphics.
These are the features found in Plus that aren't in the original game.
The ghosts‘ eyes are closer together.
This is also found in Pac & Pal.
The maze is green instead of blue.
Eating a Power Pellet can sometimes only turn three ghosts blue instead of all four, or even make the maze invisible.
Blue ghosts are now smaller in size and have leaves sticking out of their heads.
Most of the fruit graphics are changed, and the ghost graphics are slightly altered as well.
When a fruit is eaten, the ghosts become invisible. If you run into the spot where they are, you will eat them (just like with a Power Pellet, but the score counter is doubled).
