"MSX-DOS Computer Magazine" reviewed the MSX version of "Oh Shit!" in 1988 as part of the compilation release "30 MSX Hits", expressing that ""Oh Shit!" is a good "Pac-Man"-clone with a great name". "MSX-DOS Computer Magazine" notes "30 MSX Hits' " MSX2 compatibility, further expressing that not all MSX games offer this compatibility, stating "So you thought that any MSX program could be used on any MSX computer? As long as you don't try MSX2 software on MSX1 hardware? Well, everyone thought that, in the past. Before the MSX standard was well defined, game programmers sometimes did not adhere to that standard. There has been a lot of trouble with non-running games in the past." "Oh Shit!'s" MSX2 compatibility was also noted by "MSX Club Magazine" in their review of "30 MSX Hits" in 1988. British gaming magazine "MSX Computing" gave the UK MSX version, "Oh No!", an overall score of two out of three stars, noting its similarity to "Pac-Man", stating that ""Pac-man" fans will love this game as it is based very much along the same lines." "MSX Computing" praises "Oh No!'s" digitized speech, expressing that "The speech is a really novel and fun feature and does much to enhance the game" and further noting "Oh No!" as "far superior" to similar games due to its speech capability. "MSX Computing" praises "Oh No!'s" gameplay, calling it "addictive" and "an easy game to play", further recommending it due to its low price of £2.99 in 1986. Dutch gaming magazine "MSX Club Magazine" reviewed the MSX version of "Oh Shit!" in 1986, giving it an overall score of 9/10, beginning their description of "Oh Shit!'s" gameplay by stating "You already know how to play it: it's Pac-Man." "MSX Club" called "Oh Shit!'s" graphics "not graphically amazing, but this doesn't hinder gameplay", and criticised "Oh Shit!'s" sound effects, stating that "Beyond the typical irritating "Pac-Man" sounds there's also speech present", and calls the death message of "Oh Shit!" "terrible shouting". "MSX Club" notes a difficulty curve in "Oh Shit!" as the game progresses, and praises the addition of cutscenes.
