The Lab delivers diverse VR activities in Aperture Science's pocket universe. Players start as Calibration Trainees, firing the Core Calibration slingshot to smash items in the Aperture Storage Annex. They switch to archery with Longbow to guard a castle gate against cute attackers, pilot in Xortex for retro arcade action, and explore postcards of distant places.
Additional experiences include scanning a detailed human body model from CT data, touring the solar system up close, fixing robots for Aperture's outreach program, and browsing Dota's Secret Shop for fantasy items, familiars, and spells. This free-to-play PC collection suits VR enthusiasts who enjoy quick, varied minigames blending destruction, defense, simulation, and discovery.
Set in a pocket universe of Aperture Science, The Lab offers a wide range of ways to enjoy VR, all in one application.
Slingshot
Begin your career as a Calibration Trainee by recklessly destroying everything in the Aperture Storage Annex using the Core Calibration slingshot.
Longbow
Use your archery skills to defend your noble castle gate from a rampaging but adorable and equally noble horde of attackers.
Xortex
Are you a bad enough dude to become a Xortex ace? Relive the golden era of gaming -- only this time, it's all around you.
Postcards
Visit exotic, far-off locales from the comfort of your own head.
Human Medical Scan
Explore the intricate beauty of the human body through a highly detailed model created from a series of CT medical scans.
Solar System
Why watch shows about the vast majesty of space when you can jump in and see it for yourself? Have educational space-fun while putting Neil Degrasse-Tyson out of business.
Robot Repair
Can you repair a robot? Good, because Aperture Science's Human Diversity Outreach Program is now hiring.
Secret Shop
The fantasy equivalent of a twenty-four-hour convenience store is now open for business! Peruse artifacts, shop for familiars and cast a spell or two at Dota's Secret Shop!
