At that time, I got GARTEN and FRESSMANN together on one tape as one of the winners in a puzzle contest in CPU (yes, yet another magazine, but same publisher).
The three ghosts follow different strategies: the 2 pill laying ghosts wander around randomly (indeed one of them only ever reaches half of the maze), while the pill eating ghost patrols the entire maze - there's no save spot. Here's a highscore I did in FRESSMANN:

BERGSHOOTING (+3K): Use your timing to hit the targets.
BOOBY IN ACTION (+3K): Collect the treasures. Avoid the obstacles showing up right in your way. Collect the key and escape through the doort in the bottom to the next level.
I just wanted to say again a BIG THANK YOU for your huge contribution.
Yesterday I was ill at home, but not too ill to load all the games already available from the two German magazines into a directory of my Final Expansion 3, and play a lot of them for the whole afternoon .
JOSEF IN DEN KATAKOMBEN (unexpanded VIC): Collect all treasures. Don't fall from the ladder or walk into a mudpile. Flip the switch on the top to close the gap. Once you have all treasures collect the key from the top and exit to the lower left.
HOT FOOD (+3K): Eat the fruits, but not the cyan ones...
MEN RESCUE (unexpanded VIC): Rescue all the humans in the caves in just 30 seconds per level. 3 levels. You can skip the first part (long intro music) and just load men rescue2.prg if you want.
Castle Dracula looks really nice, with some interesting gameplay (using the ladder to dodge the spider, those arrows). Ridiculously hard though thanks to the controls.
If it had a bunch of screens, the 8k requirement would make sense.
COSMIC BOUNCER (+3K): Protect the space ship from the rocks. Move your ship with : ; A Z
CAVE RIDER (+3K): Two games in one. Press either 1 or 2 after the start-program to load each part. In Part 1 you need to find the yellow item and bring it back to the beginning of the level. Move with + (left), - (right), j (jump), Space (stop jump while falling). Looks strange at first, but you'll get the hang of it. Once you completed Part 1 you will be presented with a 5 char-code you need to enter at the beginng of Part 2. If you are too lazy to finish Part 1 here's the code for Part 2: BR147 <- highlight with mouse
In Part 2 you need to move your ship to the landing platform. You can use thrusters (Up = Space, Left = +, Right = -) tricky since you need a lot of thrust to move, but will easily crash into the walls then.
