Human Upgrade Labs

Human Upgrade Labs casts you as a volunteer taking tests at a research facility on a far-future Earth. The 30 mini-games are grouped into categories, use multiple visual styles, and fit together into a single story. Passing the tests may unlock new possibilities in life—or leave you mentally broken.

Choose your tests

Several new levels become available at a time, so you can choose the order in which you progress and learn about the strange world. Some levels are played once, including teaching a robot to feel, distinguishing old technology from cutting-edge technology, and haggling with a nightmarish accountant for funds. Others track your best score and test how far you can push a particular skill: stopping wooden enemies from escaping, guiding observation drones past a sentinel creature, or growing solar-power-generating trees to gather funds.

Progress and rewards

Completing the majority of the tests, or reaching high enough scores in certain levels, unlocks an invitation to a final epilogue level. High scores in those levels can earn the invitation earlier. Each level also unlocks character customization options, and many reveal more about the world, including why it is cube-shaped.
