    This game is all about social interaction with other people. Sort of like a role-playing game, but it doesn't feel as forced onto you. You can certainly play the game without much talking and succeed just as much, but it feels great to talk an SCP-173 out of killing you when you get cornered.

    All the maps are procedural, but not in a bad way. The procedural generation lowers the skill ceiling, since there's no one map that you need to memorise. So it is very much noob friendly.

    The game is still in beta, so you shouldn't be surprised if you encounter crashes or bugs, but that is the only issue with the game (except for the lack of a tutorial, but watch 2-3 10 min YouTube videos of people messing around in the game and you'll know most of the mechanics).    … Expand

    A fun multiplayer only game! You can play as various roles who each have their own task they need to complete. You can also play as an SCP and cause complete mayhem. Mic recommended.

    The game is in its very early stages, but offers a great and truly one of a kind experience that games like Friday the 13th have only tried to do. However the problems with this game lye with its community, 90% of the time you will have half the players just goofing off and RPing, not a bad thing, the bad part comes when the other half (usually the SCP players) take the game too    8/10

    man this game have a lot of bugs and its so bad optimized. The game is fun for a few hours. The best of the game is the community but in my opinion the game is overrated.

    This is a pretty good multiplayer experience. It can sometimes make some funny moments, as well as scary moments. Like it should. However I find that the community and the server you play on does occasionally have the chance to ruin your experience, and sometimes they do. But still a fun experience overall.

    SCP: secret laboratory gives an interesting concept, a multiplayer scp game, inspired by SCP:CB, but the execution is mediocre, with an awful optimization, tons of bugs, akward movement, Development being extremely slow and more, more bugs, it makes the game a torture to play seriously, even though the ambientation is decent, it doesn't save it.

    The game is still enjoyable with friends, but the fact that it doesn't give anything new to the formula of scp games more than just being a scp:cb multyplayer version, is lazy, in deed, everyone knew the game at the start as just scp:cb multyplayer, because that is what it is, it could be the exact same thing, if it was a mod for the containment breach game

    In conclusion, the game is fun, but the bugs and bad optimization makes it a mediocre game, if you want a serious scp multiplayer game, this is not what you're searching for.

    The main minus of SCP-is graphics and optimization.
    The graphics seemed to be straight from 2009, I think that the graphics clearly need to be improved.
    And so, the game is fun, especially on Russian servers (I'm Russian)

    SCP:SL is a multiplayer horror game which main mechanic are doors. You got doors that anyone can open, doors that can be opened with specific key card, doors that hide monsters behind them, items or an exit. Every round map randomizes itself so there is a different layout of doors every time you play increasing the re-playability. The doors make you do lots of tactical decisions too. TheSCP:SL is a multiplayer horror game which main mechanic are doors.

Every round map randomizes itself so there is a different layout of doors every time you play increasing the re-playability. The doors make you do lots of tactical decisions too. The problem of "Should I close this door to make it harder for an SCP to keep up with me?" is one of a bunch. As you can see, the doors are very important but has the developer realized that? In his favor I can say "Yes". The doors are easy to understand, easy to open and close but still provide thrill when interacting with them while running away from an SCP or other threat. After all, a great door simulator, disguised as a horror game.
    Things to mention: server list is now way easier to go through but still lacks filter system. I would love some sort of system that sorts servers by language, ping, in-game players, friendly fire being TRUE or FALSE. It would be great to have some sort of mini game while waiting to be re-spawned too. It would also be great if you could choose whether you want to be an SCP, 'cause I don't enjoy playing as them meanwhile other players beg to play as them.
    I give this game 4 key cards out of 5.

    Sticks to "the more the merrier", very fun game to play with friends, needs some getting used to map wise, only downside is all the children ages 6-12 in the game who are very annoying in the voice chat, they sound annoying and are annoyingly stubborn

    Interesting role-playing game with strong focus on social interactions. The fact of it being multiplayer and having procedural level generator, makes it strongly replayable. However, the game is still rough at the edges, but often releasing patches and being without a price tag compensates this issue.

    Очень хорошо для одного поляка, который на чистом энтузиазме переделал сингплеер под онлайн игру.

    Из минусов довольно редкие апдейты и всякие небольшие типичные косяки в виде багов предметов, физики и текстур.    Очень хорошо для одного поляка, который на чистом энтузиазме переделал сингплеер под онлайн игру.

    Horrible optimization. Easy to talk to the other players, make friends and have someone to help you in the game. It's very funny, I'm pretty sure this game will make you laugh a lot. One bad thing about it is that the game doesn't teach you anything, it's a very complex game that you need to learn everything by yourself and a lot of things don't make sense.
