using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;

To reload the current scene use the following code:

SceneManager.LoadScene(SceneManager.GetActiveScene().buildIndex);

We also added some text so the player knows which button to press to restart. Be sure to add on check to see if the game is over or not, so the player can only restart when the game is over.
