PETAPETA Controls

PETAPETA uses standard Roblox horror control schemes on PC with clear separation between interaction (E), item use (left mouse), and hotbar selection (number keys). Console and mobile map equivalents in settings — this page documents PC defaults assumed by most wiki walkthroughs.

PC Default Controls

InputAction
W A S DMove forward/back/strafe
E (hold)Interact — doors, boxes, safes, pickups
Left Mouse ButtonUse equipped item — ofuda placement, lighter, extinguisher
Shift (hold)Sprint — consumes stamina
1 – 9Select hotbar slot

Mouse look is standard first-person Roblox. Adjust sensitivity in Roblox settings if hunt turns feel sluggish.

Interaction vs Item Use

New players confuse E and LMB constantly:

  • E opens boxes, rotates safe dials, picks up keys/dolls, enters wardrobes.
  • LMB places ofuda, activates consumables, uses lighter on ritual photo, sprays paint.

Level 5 ritual burn requires lighter on LMB while photo already placed via E interactions — practice in calm before hunts.

Hotbar Management

Story items auto-occupy slots; manually reorder before difficult floors. Recommended Level 5 layout: photo, rope, lighter, plate, popper, onigiri on nearby keys.

Dropping items is usually unnecessary — inventory handles multiple quest objects simultaneously on modern patches.

Mobile and Console Notes

Mobile uses on-screen joysticks and tap icons mirroring E/LMB. Console maps interact to face buttons per Roblox horror defaults — check Controls menu in PETAPETA lobby for exact glyphs.

Stamina sprint on mobile drains faster for some players due to stick drift — use onigiri generously.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I sprint in PETAPETA?
Hold Shift on PC while moving. Stamina bar depletes until empty, then walking regens it.
How do I hide in wardrobes?
Approach wardrobe during hunt (red screen) and hold E to enter. Hold E or interact again to exit after calm.
How do I place ofuda?
Equip ofuda on hotbar, aim at green hallway floor tile, use left mouse button to place.
Can I rebind keys?
Roblox-level keybind changes apply; in-game PETAPETA lobby may show current bindings per platform.
