About the Game



Lost in Labs is a 2D platformer, stealth and puzzle game. But with a twist, the player will have the ability to possess and control the movement of NPCs, using this to gather information, to open a door from the other side, or just move this person out of the way.

Explore

Use Lucian's abilities to explore the enviroment!

Hide

Lucian must use the enviroment in his advantage in order to succeed, hiding so he won't get caught by the guards. But... what are THEY hiding?

Distract

Don't let they stand in your way. Distract others so they don't see you sneaking around.

Control

"I have to press that button, but it is too far away!"

"That guard is in my way..."
"I am hungry."

In Lost in Labs, two of those can be solved using the possession dynamic.

Discover


There is something wrong around here. For Lucian to succeed and rescue his best friend, he'll need to understand the world around him.
