comment
Lab of the Dead is an Adobe Flash game on Newgrounds and the storyline sequel to Road of the Dead. In it the player takes control of Dr. Allen Creasman Tyler, a scientist who is actually studying zombies psychologically in order to find ways to control them. Unlike other Zombie Apocalypse games, there is no danger of being eaten by a zombie, instead being focused on discovering things about zombies. It is playable here.The game would be followed up by Range of the Dead, a story sequel that changes the gameplay from studying undead behavior to shooting them from afar. It is a 3D zombie shooter that has Dr. Tyler arm himself with a bolt-action rifle and other weapons after leaving the laboratory. Picking a valley below the facility as a firing range, he prepares himself for the undead-infested apocalypse by using zed's as targets. The gameplay is simple to understand but may be difficult to play. You'll be dealing with gravity via bullet drop, the distance of the target and wind variation. It is playable here or in the mobile smartphones.

comment
Violation of Common Sense: Make a zombie have low mood and high humanity, shoot it in the legs, then give it a loaded handgun. Surprisingly, this does not result in the zombie killing itself or you—although they will try sometimes if given an empty handgun on low moods.

Mad Scientist: The player, especially after murdering the military squad. Downplayed Trope. He has enough sanity to realize what he just did was twisted, and seems to regret it greatly and was acting out of stress. Despite any excuse, he still notes he should not have done that. Nonetheless, you can still feed their flesh to a zombie.

Downer Ending: You cannot turn Zombies back even at 100% Mood and Humanity. Then, your fellow survivors turn on you, forcing you to either kill or infect them. The Game ends when you reach 100% completion and leave the facility to become The Aloner.

Sole Surviving Scientist: The main character is a sole surviving researcher following in the footsteps of the original dead scientists. Doubly so when he has to kill his military superiors in order to not only feed his test subjects but also save himself from them.

Attractive Zombie: Some of the zombies look relatively good (the main things that are really abnormal are the blue skin and lack of eyes), both male and female, and their behaviors once they reach a high mood and humanity rating make them rather friendly.

Irony
 Lab of the Dead (Video Game) / int_c335b9ec
comment
Irony: The military general who was allowing the scientist to work in the lab finds the notes the scientist was collecting about the previous owners of the lab, and then uses science in general as a scapegoat for all their problems, and basically praises the military for not being that dumb. After he ends up dead, the scientist finds evidence that points at the opposite view, where the previous scientist eventually tried to prevent the outbreak by destroying the notes on the virus, only for the military to kill her on orders from above and as a misguided attempt to brute force the situation back to stability.

Shout-Out: Thanks to the film being a Whole-Plot Reference to Day of the Dead (1985), the Advanced Reaction for the loaded pistol and cell phone are clear references to that film. The Advanced Reaction for the tazer (object) has Dr. Tyler say "Hey! Don't taze me, bro!"

Whole-Plot Reference: It is, for all intents and purposes, a playable version of Day of the Dead (1985) with very little in the way of any major differences except our main playable character is an expy of Dr. Logan, some backstory behind the S14 virus's creation and the Mad Scientist killing everyone in his party.

Expy: While Dr. Tyler is based appearance-wise on Dr. Fischer, character-wise he clearly takes a lot from Dr. Logan. As they are scientists whom are interested in learning more about zombie behaviors and finding ways to reform the zombies.Just like Logan, he becomes more and more amoral to the point he actually starts using the remains of his military superiors to feed his subjects. Although unlike Dr. Logan, he ends up being the Sole Survivor.
