There are obvious similarities to Lab Rats in the "getting the girls" mechanic, however I would argue that the story is pretty different. Also TO has way more content than LR1 (haven't tried LR2).
The early versions of the game were a pretty obvious knock-off, but it's since sprouted wildly in all sorts of different directions, not all of them really explored very thoroughly. The game has changed directions a few times, from the early serum-dosing frolics, to introducing a strategic layer and then more or less leaving it on the shelf, to go-here-to-trigger-the-next-event style VN in sandbox clothing.

I don't think I've played it in about a year though, so no idea where the gameplay is at these days.

The difference is scope. In neither LR1 nor 2 do you ever really expand your power beyond dosing single characters. It's also much lighter on story than TO and more management than VN.

There certainly was a certain element of VN, I would even argue KN in places, with the only interaction you having to click "start next scene" by going to a specific place without the ability to go different paths or prioritize thing A over thing B, I will agree on that.

Yeah I’m stuck on that as well
I'll try to investigate with the console and variables if I can try to find something :/

UPDATE #1
So far here's what I found, for this text to appear you have to get these variables to
  • _folk_corr == 27 and TQ_2 >= 2 and TQ_2 < 5
  • _folk_corr == 27 and TQ_2 >= 5 and TQ_2a < 6
  • _folk_corr == 27 and TQ_2 >= 5 and TQ_2 < 17
At _folk_corr = 28 you seem to get to the next part of the main quest.
On my playthrough I'm at
  • _folk_corr = 27
  • TQ_2 = 12
  • TQ_2a = 6
I'm still trying to figure out what is this TQ_2 variable

UPDATE #2
Seems to lead with activism and Katy, maybe it's missing a button or something?

Using this in the console resolves the problem
Code:
jump activism_katy_selector
I'll try to correct the file

UPDATE #3
Found the fix. It goes in game\script\locations\university and replace university.rpy

Code:
if TQ_2 < 11 or TQ_2a < 6:
to
Code:
if TQ_2 < 11 or TQ_2a <= 6:

Great work! Quest advances now when going to university.

Hi all, my compressed unofficial Android port of Take Over 0.63 with Incest mod by Elbrasch and a little cheat mod I've put in too
Access cheat toggle from preferences during game - Warning! this may break the story if used inappropriately.
Variable viewer and console to change. Same warning as above.
Usual gestures, save name/delete, seethru textbox, resizeable game and dialogue text.
Scrollable textbox - no more text off the bottom of your screen
Scrollable choices too, text will resize with dialogue
Alternative persistent saves/log location
Grant storage permissions on first run!

Mega
Updated my Android port to 0.63

I remember playing this and having a female cop(?) turning the tables on you and drugging you with the serum. Am I correct with that memory, is it unavoidable, and if it is what how that gets solved later on?

If I myself remember correctly, then you remember correctly, it is unavoidable as part of the main story, and you will be able to turn the tables later.
