ABOUT THE GAME
Ball Scratch Simulator is a short, replayable public panic game. Wait until witnesses look away, scratch to relieve an escalating itch, sniff the evidence for a multiplier boost, then stop instantly when attention swings back. Play offline solo or host a private Steam match for up to four players, with bots available for empty seats. Build scratch streaks, unlock the Shame Deck, chase Steam leaderboard positions in single-player, and make increasingly bad decisions across six public disaster zones.

LOCATIONS
Classroom; White House press briefing; gym; bank; ice cream shop; interrogation room.

KEY FEATURES
- Short score-attack runs with fast restarts.
- Suspicious witnesses and escalating pressure.
- A scratch-and-sniff scoring system that turns recent relief into multiplier boosts.
- Private Steam multiplayer for up to four players, with bots for open seats.
- Scratch streaks, Steam leaderboards, achievements, and performance stats.
- Unlockable chibis and collectible Shame Deck cards.
- Full desktop play with optional seated OpenXR VR support.
- VR Streamer Mode with a stable 1080p spectator view.
- Creator Mode, enabled under Options > Game Feel, for temporary access to every location and the full Shame Deck.

MULTIPLAYER
Private Steam matches support up to four active players across all six locations. The host can add bots to open seats. Multiplayer runs do not submit ordinary single-player scores, stats, achievements, or leaderboard entries. Online multiplayer requires Steam connectivity; single-player works offline.

CREATOR AND COVERAGE POLICY
Streaming, videos, reviews, and standard platform monetization are welcome after the coverage embargo lifts on Thursday 10 September 2026. Enable Creator Mode under Options > Game Feel, restart the game, then open Creator Tools from the main menu. Creator Tools unlocks are temporary; while Creator Mode is active, career-save writes, Steam achievements, stats, and leaderboard submissions are disabled.

CONTENT NOTE
All characters are adults and fully clothed. The game contains intentionally suggestive comedy, but no nudity or explicit sexual activity.
