== Gameplay ==

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!
