About Ball Scratch Simulator
Ball Scratch Simulator puts you in public locations where an itchy impulse meets social panic. You must scratch without being seen, earning points the longer you stay hidden while the game records each decision.
The title offers single‑player and up to four‑player online PvP, six distinct places, collectible scene cards and chibi figures, optional VR support, and Steam features such as achievements, leaderboards, cloud saves, and controller tracking.
01 / THE GUIDE
Scratch Scoring and Panic
Points are awarded for the duration of a scratch that remains unseen. The description notes that longer scratches raise the score, creating a direct risk‑reward tension between visibility and point gain.
If a witness spots the action, the attempt ends instantly, forcing the player to restart. This binary outcome encourages careful timing and observation of each witness’s behavior.
- Watch witness patterns before starting a scratch to gauge safe windows.
- Start with short scratches to learn the timing before attempting longer runs.
02 / THE GUIDE
Four‑Player Online PvP
Up to four players can compete simultaneously, each trying to scratch without detection. The mode is described as fast‑paced public scratching action, emphasizing timing against other players’ visibility.
Global leaderboards track scores from these sessions, allowing participants to compare their performance with others worldwide.
- Observe opponents’ scores to understand how aggressive successful scratches can be.
- Keep an eye on multiple witnesses to avoid simultaneous detection.

03 / THE GUIDE
Six Terrible Places
The launch includes six public locations, each with its own witnesses, routines, pressure, and potential for humiliating failure. Some passersby simply walk by, while others linger or turn around at critical moments.
Each place presents a distinct rhythm of attention, requiring the player to adapt scratching timing and hand movement to the specific environment.
- Spend a moment observing each location’s witness patterns before starting a scratch.
- Prioritize spots where witnesses tend to linger for longer safe periods.
04 / THE GUIDE
Scene Cards and Chibi Figures
Collectible scene cards and chibi characters unlock as you make poor decisions. They serve as proof that you scratched, panicked, and chose to remember the moment.
The description notes they commemorate the terrible decisions you made along the way, giving players a reason to revisit scenarios for additional memorabilia.
- Try different risky decisions across runs to see which yield new cards and chibis.
- Experiment with different decision outcomes to see which unlocks new collectibles.
05 / THE GUIDE
Optional VR Experience
VR support is available for players who want a more immersive panic. The mode places you close to witnesses, heightening the feeling of embarrassment, and includes a VR Streamer Mode with a stable 1080p spectator view.
VR does not replace core mechanics; it amplifies timing and humiliation aspects, making each scratch feel more immediate.
- Use VR to practice hand alignment in a realistic field of view.
- Enable Streamer Mode if you plan to broadcast attempts for community feedback.
