The Kitatcho Laboratories - Chapter 1

The Kitatcho Laboratories - Chapter 1 is a Minecraft puzzle map released on September 17th 2020. It's a reboot of the original Kitatcho Laboratories episodes that were released years prior, and focuses on retelling the original story of Kitatcho but also taking it in a new direction. It is the prequel to The Kitatcho Laboratories - Chapter 2. The map includes 15 test chambers which serves as the maps main puzzles, as well as an original soundtrack and a fully voice-acted story.

Plot
The plot of the map starts with the player taking the role of "TS-03" (Pronounced: "Test Subject Three"), who awakens in a mysterious room with the voice of Jake Kitatcho being heard over the speakers. Jake welcomes TS-03 to the infamous Kitatcho Laboratories, which happens to be a scientific research facility built with the express purpose of forwarding the cause of science. Jake tells TS-03 that they were chosen out of a random selection of participants to take part in their newly built testing track, which tests the cognitive function and problem-solving skills of the test subject.

After performing a warm-up test and exploring the Test Track 02 lobby, the player's testing adventure begins as they travel through 15 test chambers introducing various mechanics such as slimeballs, adhesion sludge, redstone, and effect plates. As the player's journey progresses, Jake begins to start saying some questionable things, and the test chambers become more hazardous with risks of drowning or combusting in lava being introduced.

After completing the testing track, TS-03 is then told to head to the "Testers Reward Program" where the facility has put together a reward built specifically for them. After making their way down a couple of hallways, TS-03 is then trapped by a floor that opens beneath them, knocking them unconscious in the process. When they awake, they are suddenly in a small confined tank and Jake is again heard on the intercom.

He goes on to explain that your reward is to be cryogenically frozen and put to sleep, where they will thaw you out in the future once newly built test chambers are complete. With nowhere to run, TS-03 is then forced to watch themself be cryogenically frozen in a tank of ice.
