About Deep in the Lab – Chapter 1
Many titles describe experiments that go wrong and the struggles to survive the resulting creatures.
This game is the intro to a possible series where more experiments are revealed and the reason behind them.
However, you're playing as someone who doesn't care about that.
You're just trying to stay alive and get as far away from this place as possible.
You'll never feel safe the whole time you're down there and constantly worry about your inventory and health as you delve deeper into the darkness.
There will be a fair amount of tension, so always have a way to defend yourself.

The goal is to find a way to escape the facility.

If your health ever drops to critical, you'll fall and be sent back to the last checkpoint.
The main menu lets you tweak your controller choices and game options before you start playing.
When you do, the soldier spawns in a dark, empty part of the facility.
From there, the soldier must collect any helpful items and ammo.
As you go through the facility, you'll encounter monstrous experiments that will attack you as soon as they detect you.
You can either run or shoot to try and defeat them.
You must navigate and look for keys to unlock doors leading to different areas and leading you closer to the exit.
You must get the facility's key parts to complete the chapter.
Tips and Tricks
The facility has a finite amount of ammo, and the monsters you encounter will be resilient, so don't waste shots on every enemy.
If you have a chance to retreat or dodge through enemies, that may be the better and safer option.
Check the map periodically to track your movements and mark points of interest and secure areas.
