02 / How to play

Find your footing in the lab.

Start with the modes and interface, then experiment. On-screen prompts are the best reference for controls in the current game build.

01 / Choose a mode

Start in Sandbox

Sandbox lets you explore the available items and systems without following a fixed case. Other modes may offer a different structure as the game develops.

02 / Find a tool

Use the category bar

Look through Hand, Weapons, Props, Medicine, and Powers. Select a category, choose an item, and follow the in-game prompts.

03 / Watch the result

Read the monitor

Vital signs and wound information respond to events in the simulation. Observe what changes after each action.

04 / Try again

Inspect, reset, repeat

Use the view and reset controls to inspect outcomes and start a fresh experiment. Check the game settings if performance is slow.

Keep it in context

Trauma Lab is fictional entertainment with graphic content. It is not a medical training resource or treatment guide.
