About the Game
Examine and test patients for common and novel infections using sophisticated medical instrumentation; isolate and disinfect patients. Enroll in additional programs to diagnose, treat, and potentially perform surgery on patients.
Rumors of mysterious diseases and human experimentation are unconfirmed.
Help discover novel and chimeric pathogens and diseases
Treat the strange, sometimes horrifying, infectious diseases they produce
Experience the wonders, mysteries, and horrors of medical science
"The study of novel and obscure medical phenomena, while rarely relevant to mainstream public healthcare, is invaluable in the development of new scientific paradigms and knowledge. Practitioners in this field will need to be open to new and alternative scientific ideas, and will have to make difficult ethical decisions in almost every case."
BASIC PROGRAM
The soft-ware initially presents information about SYMPTOMS OF INFECTION.
Participants will then conduct DIAGNOSIS, TESTING, DISPOSITION, and DISINFECTION procedures:
DIAGNOSIS
Examine the patient visually
Interview them
Run tests
TESTING
Allow the LAM-ORB Mainframe to process tests
Initially users of the soft-ware will be of low-priority to the Mainframe
You may request to EXPEDITE processing to the Mainframe, every click counts
(NEW) The Mainframe may be BUSY at times; you may RETRY/OVERRIDE pathogen identification
DISPOSITION
Make sure you identify all SYMPTOMS OF INFECTION
Make sure you indicate the finding of infectious patterns or pathogens in the tests
DISINFECTION
Transfer infected patients to the ISOLATION WARD
Follow DISINFECTION PROCEDURES
ATTENTION: Some patients may present comorbidities or symptoms that not necessesarily represent an underlying disease.
(NEW) ADVANCED PROGRAM
Experienced participants will be able to enroll in the ADVANCED PROGRAM, where they will test their psychological, ethical, and technical preparedness to DIAGNOSE and TREAT OBSERVATION WARD patients.
Participants may be required to assist in disinfection-related clinical directives in other wards, and may be subjected to TESTS and an AUDIT.
DIrectly DIAGNOSE and TREAT patients; revisit them at discretion
Administer different medications; provide different treatments (incl. experimental ones)
Encounter RARE INFECTIONS DISEASES such as PROGRESSIVE PUTRIS and OCUSBOLIA
Do NOT disturb PSYCHIATRIC WARD patients
(NEW) PRACTITIONERS PROGRAM
Information about this program is confidential.
LAM-ORB
The soft-ware tries to emulate as close as possible the experience, technology, and findings of the LAM-ORB organization's research during the 1970s. Rumors about the reason of the sudden disappearance of the organization include human experimentation, chimeric pathogen development, and secret medical research.

Official update history
If you stumble upon an error about "VCRUNTIME140.dll" missing, you need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.
Most users shouldn't have this issue (as it is a common requirement for a lot of software) but if you do, please let us know. While we would prefer to distribute a single, light executable; if the issue is fairly common we'll work on an installer that includes it.
THANK YOU to one of our users for bringing this to our attention.
- Fixed Windows "Debug" DLLs requirement
