    This is a management game done right: you need to plan ahead and use your resources correctly to get what you want, which in this case are the women.

    It's not the usual RenPy game where you just hold down Ctrl until some sex scene happens - instead, it's a proper game, so the focus is on the gameplay - you'll spend most of the time researching and developing serums, and slowly tailoring the traits of the women to your liking.

    Besides the sandbox/management mode, there is a story mode, which adds novelty. I set it to marathon speed and it's been quite enjoyable, allowing me to focus on the management part, while throwing new events once in a while.

    I'm only taking away one star because of the character models: most of the faces look the same, and there doesn't seem to be a way to modify their faces (which are the main issue) through serums, and the textures are very poor - the models don't even seem to have buttholes.

    That aside, it's a pretty solid management game for those looking for actual gameplay.

    i don't like giving 5 stars to any game
    but this one is an exception

    compared to the other games i played, this one stands out the most to me
    this is proof that you don't need graphics to get immersed in a game, because most of the time i find myself glued to my screen playing this for hours and hours.

    i'm looking forward to future updates :)

    Amazing game. One of the best management/corruption style game on this sight. The endless ways to customize a girl is insanely good. You can practically change how they look given you have the right serums and their sluttiness levels are high enough for outfits you make.

    But even though I love this game, the scenes are just not it. Every girl has the same static pose when in sex positions. The only difference would be dialogue. If this game had animations for scenes, this game would probably be the best game on this site.

    4.5/5

    I greatly enjoy this management game.

    You can research a vast amout of wicked drugs and either use them on already obedient women (that you have previously drugged to the moon and back) or sell them to expand your crazy abusive pharma business.

    As a Doctor of Business Administration I am delighted. This game is like the wet dream of a inherently evil manager. It somehow makes me feel at home.

    5 stars.

    I absolutly love this game, and am so glad that you guys have modded it to keep it alive and progressing. I would have loved to see the updated graphics that the original was going to update to but the story and gameplay are more important, so i'm happy without it. Keep up the good work looking foward to every update

    It's quote good. Good mechanics , a few small bugs but easily playable.
    tutorial could do with some more explanation though - took me a while to understand the production of drugs in the game
    Would be interested in seeing how this game goes over time and throughout multiple updates

    This is a very good game, super customizable with decent gameplay that can be skipped with cheats no consequence. Scenes and scenarios galore, the world truly feels like it under your control. Making serums and applying them is fun and interactive and ruling the office is a very spicey idea.

    Well, Thanks to the forum to update this abandoned project. The game has a interesting concept of management however the save compatibility problem is still not solved and have to restart every time is a huge turn down.

    Its honestly the best game on F95zone, and the one I've spent the longest amount of time on.

    • You create a business which you actually want to see succeed
    • Your employees all bring different skill sets and by interacting with them you can get them to a better position for the company
    • By earning money you can grow your company, and get new sex related scenes.
    • You get missions which will make you stronger (RPG wise)
    • The interactions with your Step-mom and Step-sis are really ''realistic'' as in they will always push back on you getting dirtier with them. Every time you reach a new taboo they will feel guilt afterwards.
    • You can upgrade a persons skills, fetish, and decrease/increase their interest in something. Which can play in to your fantasy of how the person interreacts

    This game has a very fun gameplay loop, good mind control content, and lots of customizability (though I wish it didn't come at the expense of quality for some of the visuals). I have spent way too long playing this.

    Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2024.5B]

    Welcome to Lab Rats, where every sex scene is the same, and the grind is immense!

    Sounds like it would be a shit game, right? Well it isn't. It's actually quite decent. Mainly because of the writing and mechanics.

    I would never have dreamed that I would be praising game mechanics in a lewd game, but here I am surprising myself. Someone actually put an enormous amount of thought and effort into the skeleton of this game and it's actually quite clever. I won't bore you to death with the details but if you're a min/maxer and a closet accountant at heart you'll love this.

    It's just a damn shame they cranked the grind up to 11. Earning enough money to complete the available content will take weeks of real in-game hours. It's good, sure, but nowhere near THAT good.

    And lastly, this game's quite unique strength is also its main weakness: Character customization and outfits.
    If you like to play dress-up and create slutty office uniforms for your factory workers then you can do that. If you want a character to dress a certain way you can convince her (if she's slutty enough). But because of the insane level of modularity and customization for all characters, it follows that each sex scene needs to show the current character, with the current body proportions, with the current clothes and accessories, doing the act. Which means that it's really only feasable to have 1 static position for each sex act. And don't get me wrong here, there are many different positions such as doggy, cowgirl, et c. But rest assured, every character you meet and have sex with will do each position in exactly the same pose and camera angle. Sure, the dialogue will change but the posing will not. And said posing leaves a lot to be desired. It's low-res, invisible MC, body floating in air. Not the greatest of looks.

    The writing however, is way above average. Especially if you're into wincest. And there are a million hot scenarios with almost a hundred unique characters.

    So yeah, there you have it. The game is very strong in some respects but also very weak in others. It's not at all an average game, but that's going to be my score. Because that's what it sums to in my head when I weigh the pros and cons.

    The best sandbox and corruption experience I've had. I also enjoyed the individual story lines of some of the characters. At first I was turned off by the models which are admittedly outdated, but the core experience of producing mind altering serums and turning your workers, friends and family into your ideal sex toys, is so well executed that I think it deserves 5 stars.

    Corruption, sandbox, even rng feels alright for most part, but randomness of outfits produces alot of ugly stuff, which you need to manually adjust.

    The art is obnoxiously bad. Static jpgs from 10 years ago, with square like faces, and all girls look pretty much the same.

    Same thing can be said about UI/UX, that looks at least 20 years old and clumsy, it does not give credit to renpy.

    Absolutely amazing balance between sandbox, management, dating sim, corruption and interchanging stories of different characters. You can even set the faster or slower pace if you like or dislike the grind.

    Although the models are quite outdated and clothes sometimes clip, it doesn't really discourage that much due to all the other stuff being awesome

    I've sunk >20 hours into it so it's doing a lot of thing right. There's several stories, all of which are least decent and some compelling. Serum choices in the workplace, particularly after trace-inducing aspects are unlocked, can not only raise morale and workplace dedication, but are eventually tweaked to turn your office into a debauched hub of cum-addicted beauties - if that's your thing. Serums can be blessings or curses (if that's your thing).
    It's a fun play. Customizable mind control serums that you're involved in designing, producing, and (for cash) selling - and of course, using.

    Highly recommend.

    It's always great to see a community trying do revive or keep alive a game with mods
    This mod is not perfect but it adds a lot of content.
    I give this mod 9/10.
    It gives you the option to select the difficulty and reduce the RNG which in the original was a pain in the ass.

    5/5, yes its great.

    Yes, I have sunk tens of hours into it.

    However, it's got a hell of a learning curve, but if you overcome it, you will likely be met with one of the most polished and freest H-Game on the platform.

    In the game, you pick your name and name of your company, and open a pharmaceutical company in the game's city. You start as the boss, with one employee, and from there you can run the business as you please. You have to manage the RnD department to research new serums, order raw materials, manufacture your designs, sell them to make profit, and manage the company internally to keep all operations running smoothly.

    If that sounds like a lot for two people to do, that's because it is. In short, you have to hire more staff, who all have skill levels in certain departments that make them more qualified or less qualified for the positions you assign them. They effectively automate the processes they work in for you, but they also have a daily salary you have to compensate them for. Lose too much money until you hit $0, and it's game over.

    So, you speculate the market, determine which traits of serums are currently in demand. Things like mental depressants, stimulants, beauty products, birth control, and other attributes will fluctuate up and down daily in demand, and also react if you flood the market with one specific kind of serum. In short, watch the market, manage it, sell high, and diversify your output.

    ...Oh yeah, this is a porn game.

    So, every girl in this game, from your family members (for the incest lovers out there), your employees, and every woman you can encounter in the game (around 75 different ones), have a Sluttiness Level, and Obedience Level, and a Love Level. Whether using your charms, corrupting serums, putting them in trances, or a combination of the three, you can make girls more and more willing to engage with you sexually.

    And its not just "lovey dovey" sex either; you can make them your girlfriend, be the one they cheat on their husbands with, a member of your harem, your personal slaves, or a combination of any of these.

    You also can enact policies for your employees (who will always be female, no big surprise) to make this process easier for turning your employees into your personal sluts until your entire office is practically your personal harem.

    Also, this game has a dress-up doll system, allowing you to pick whatever clothes you want girls to wear (if they are obedient of course), what color those clothes are, and yes, you can have sex with them in said clothes.

    Even as much as I have talked, there's still more to say. I haven't even talked about some girl's questlines, sex positions, unlockable fetishes, etc. etc.

    My point is, feel free to mess up the game a few times before you get the hang of it, and you will realize that this is honestly a contender for best sandbox/strategy H-game on this and maybe ever.

    Probably my most played and re-played H game. Sandbox; business management with a lot of character customization and top-notch writing. The game only shows female characters which are represented via 3D-render paper-dolls.

    One of the extremely few titles that i don't have major gripes with, and all i want is MORE content.

    There is a good reason why the original LR2 shows up on so many recommendation lists. And Reformulate only makes it better. A definite must-play!

    Loved the original but this modded version somehow manages to be 100 times better. Even if you didn't like the original, I really think you should give this version of the game a shot if any of the adult themes of the game interest you.
