How it plays

How does Oh Shit! play?

Move through the maze, collect the available items, avoid or outmanoeuvre the ghosts, and clear the stage while managing the same chase-and-escape rhythm as the arcade format it imitates.

Plan your run

What is the best way to play Oh Shit!?

Keep an escape route open before entering a narrow corridor, use the maze corners to break pursuit, and collect risky items only when the ghosts are positioned safely. Learn the ghost names and movement patterns as the stage speed increases.
