Patch 0.5.0 – The Lab Opens, the Tavern Whispers
Hey everyone!
Patch 0.5.0 is live, and this one finally unlocks the laboratory in the eastern district — with new cleaning jobs, new risk/reward events, and a couple of spicy scenes both in the lab and the tavern. We also tweaked payouts so working actually feels worth it, tightened up the UI on the map, and went through the texts again to clean up typos.
Main Highlight
New location to work: a laboratory building has been added to the eastern district, right next to the hospital.
The character can now work there as a cleaner — but it’s a dangerous place, so expect random events.
New Laboratory Events
Cleaning the lab isn’t just “click to earn money” anymore. We added several room-specific encounters to make it feel alive (and unsafe):
Random poison gas event – each room in the laboratory now has a chance to trigger a basic toxic-gas incident. Be careful where you wander.
Facehugger event – can trigger while cleaning the room with tables.
Monster-in-cages event – can trigger while cleaning the prison/cell area.
Brainwashing experiment event – can trigger in the room with the surgical table.
All of these are meant to make the lab feel like… a lab. Not a safe workplace.

Economy / Balance
We fixed the formulas responsible for money rewards from work.
Result: the character now earns more for the same work. You should feel the difference.
Tavern Content
New tavern scene: the character can be sent to the pantry for a “special order.”
Depending on random chance and her reputation in the Northern Quarter (500), she will either:
witness other waitresses providing special services, or
be offered to perform those services herself.
This gives tavern gameplay more variety and makes high reputation actually matter.

Adult / Stat Changes
The requirement for using the glory hole has been raised.
Now it needs ≥ 60 MindCurse to access.
This is to keep some events gated so the character doesn’t jump into them too early.
Map Menu Improvements
Added a button to display the route map.
Added buttons to display location contents as lists.
Overall, moving around the city should feel clearer.
Polish
Text revision, typo checks, and small corrections across the build.
“NEXT” button lockout in story scenes reduced from 1500 to 700 — so dialogs feel snappier.
Replaced the image of the drowning woman in the prologue (“it was irritating me,” so now it’s gone).
New brothel event with two men added.
