What is BONELAB?

A single-player VR action sandbox set in and around an underground research lab in MythOS City. As an outcast escaping a death sentence, you fight with ranged and melee weapons, solve puzzles, tackle obstacle courses, and collect items, avatars, and clues across arenas, trials, sandboxes, and user-created levels.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy experimenting with physics-based combat and weapons
  • +you want custom avatars, mods, and user-created levels
  • +you prefer sandbox freedom over a story-led campaign

Not for you if...

  • −you mainly want a long, story-focused campaign
  • −you dislike complex VR controls and physics-driven movement
  • −you want built-in multiplayer rather than single-player

What players say

82% of 20,911 reviews are positive · 95% of 222 in the last 30 days

Players praise the physics sandbox, weapon variety, avatar system, and large selection of community mods. Common complaints focus on the short, unclear campaign, dependence on mods for lasting value, infrequent updates, and a price some consider too high.
