print was a statement in python 2.x, it is now a function so you need parenthesis:

In python version 3, print was changed into a function.
Use this and it will work:
print("Game Over")

gor...@panix.com B is for Basil, assaulted by bears

No, none what so ever. Perhaps you are the first person in the world to have come across this error. If you ever solve it, please write up the solution and put it on a blog or a website somewhere so that if it ever happens again, googling for "python print SyntaxError" will return a useful result.

I think OP rather gave the game away with the subject line.
