TLDR: Lobotomy Corporation is an extremely good game, with very good lore, music, and just overall creativity. If you start playing, you will probably ask for more. However, the game reaaaaally didn't age well, so PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD install mods to help you! ... Oh you have time to read? Well then, let's go a bit more in depth. First off, what even is Lob Corp? The official page tells you it's a Monster Manager... And while it is one, that's not all it is. I'd almost see it as more Souls-like than anything. This game WILL make you suffer, whether you want it or not. Compared to many other games, Lob Corp does not help you, it does not make your journey easier. It's always bothering you, in an intended way or not. Now, how do you play exactly? Well, it's pretty simple. The game is divided in Days, and each Day, you will have to extract an Abnormality (or Abno, ), which will get added to your Facility. You will then have to manage this Facility, working on said Abnos to gather energy, up to a certain quota that will increase every Day, while trying not to lose every single employees in the Facility. You know what? It'll be easier if I did the good/bad things of this game. Let's start off with... The Good Things: * The Lore: ohmygod the lore. If you don't wanna play Library of Ruina (the sequel) right now, you will after finishing this game. * The Characters: it, again, doesn't actually change the game, but the character designs are just incredible. * The Abnormalities: again, the lore is incredible, but they are also basically all different, all have different mechanics, and I swear to god at the end of this game you will not see trains the same way (trust me). * The Game Loop: though simple, it's still pretty well executed, but it also brings a problem we'll see later... * The Music: listen to First Trumpet or Second Trumpet, or Circle Rombed Oxygen (or not if you think it'll spoil you). Those musics man... * The Polishing: despite what I'll say later, this game is extremely well polished. The style is well made, there are sounds for basically everything, AND THE MUSICS MAN- But now, we got to get to... The Bad Things (because there are some): * Respect for Player's Time: as you can see, I played 110 hours. And I wouldn't say I'm the worst guy when playing this game, though I could have probably instead played for 140 hours if I restarted again to get the 100%. Just so you know, you will probably have to play this game basically three times to get the 100% and the secret Ending that goes with it. Also, some PARTICULAR days make you have to go very far into it, putting like 30-40 minutes, and then easily kills you and makes you restart those 40 DAMN MINUTES!! * Aging: yeah, this game didn't age really well. And it shows with the next point... * Bugs: there are bugs. Minor ones, like some Abno not doing exactly what it's supposed to do (I'm looking at you, Luminous Bracelet), but also pretty major ones, like the memory leak. Basically, you will have to play on a timer, because more than 1 hour on a single day will probably fill your computer's memory up and even make you crash the game (I once had my game crash three times on the same DAY WTF). There are also visual bugs (animations not triggering, VFX not despawning), and some things simply not well done (e.g. for a specific Abno, you need one of your stats to be lower than a certain amount, however that Abno will sometimes increase this Stat, and because it increases the Stat BEFORE making the check for the "is the Stat lower than X", you can be screwed because of that, yes I just ranted about a very specific thing that will probably not happen to you, I don't care). * Difficulty Curve: though I can't tell you much right now without spoiling, you will feel the immediate increase coming out of nowhere, most of the time between Day 21 and Day 25. However, for the last two problems, there is a solution: MODS!! The memory leak can be fixed using BaseMod I believe (right here: https://www.nexusmods.com/lobotomycorporation/mods/2), which also is the base (heh) for many other mods that fix other minor problems. You should also put mods that make the game easier, and by "make the game easier", I mean: * More Detailed Info, which should honestly already be in the game (https://www.nexusmods.com/lobotomycorporation/mods/47) * Free Change Appearance (https://www.nexusmods.com/lobotomycorporation/mods/39) * Any other that seem balanced, because though it's cool to want to finish the game without mods, it's even cooler to ACTUALLY FINISH IT. I didn't use any mods, and I HAD to take a 1-2 months break from the game to come back better. That is how hard and frustrating this game is. If you've read all of this well done. If you still won't buy this game, uh, good for you. You won't have to endure the pain. If you did however... Prepare. Oh, and... Welcome to Lobotomy Corporation, Manager.

you'll be almost finished with one of the hardest challenges the game has to throw at you until your best agent named "farthead" gets their head caved in by a 20 ton pillar falling from the cieling and you'll have no choice but to restart the day because you couldnt possibly bare losing farthead. 10/10

I hate this game. I hate the train. I hate the magical girl. I hate my employees. I have lost count of how many times i have reset. This game makes me want to intentionally and viciously stub my toe against a concrete wall. 10/10 game, will be back to play it all over again.

Playing this game is like asking yourself "If you could, would you repetitively, excessively, violently and for an extended period of time, smash your entire body and head against a brick wall for absolutely no reason?" and answering affirmatively.
