Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: For clearing the first five levels, the Ghostbusters get a piece of an ancient tablet and then a jewel that fits in a hole in the middle. However, this opens a Hellgate in the middle of the city when they put the "Eye of the Flame" jewel into the stone tablet. Fortunately, replacing it with a jewel called "The Storm's Calm" they get from the final boss repairs the damage. |

comment |
Bubble Gun: The bubble projectile, which can carry ghosts away to somewhere else. Depending on how good your jumping skills are, this may become useful in the Woody House, as there is one type of ghost (a blue fire porcupine) which isn't affected by any of the other weapons. |

comment |
Blackout Basement: The burning building level, which for some reason was bathed in pitch-black darkness note This probably represents what your field of vision would be in a building that's under siege with fire ghosts.. Luckily, you CAN buy an Infrared Scope (read: Paragoggles) at the Item Shop. They're only useful on that one level, and the batteries wear out. |

Shout-Out |
| | Ghostbusters (1990) (Video Game) / int_c75df49a |

Shout-Out: The Venus Flytrap ghost in the Castle level is one for Audrey II. Where, oh where, is Rick Moranis when you need him? The manual implies that Janna's final form is called "Bazoozoo"(a reference to "Pazuzu"?). In the Apartment level, the Ghostbusters have to face a horde of small orange creatures which don't seem to fit in with the surroundings. They may be a more demonic version of the Sno-Bees, from Sega's arcade game Pengo. The 100-Eyed Centipede in the High-Rise, and the way to defeat it, most likely derives from Centipede. Look at the computer in the Ghostbusters' office. Someone's playing a game of Tetris! |

Nightmare Face: Janna. Good luck trying to go to sleep once you see it for yourself in the cutscene right before the Final Boss battle. |

Post-Defeat Explosion Chain: All of the minibosses and bosses, bar the Possessors in the Castle level disintegrate in a series of "ghost vanishes" flashes. |

Graphics-Induced Super-Deformed: The game uses super-deformed sprites, but characters are normally proportioned in portraits and cutscenes. |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Janna, the final boss, is essentially a Palette Swap version of Gozer. Additionally, the "Banshee" found in the Apartment level looks like the ghost in Ray's dream. |

Was Once a Man: This game has this as an origin for the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man. He was once a fellow who gorged on Marshmallows and became Mr. Stay Puft (Or he over-ate himself to death and his ghost became Mr. Stay Puft, it isn't clear). |
