This is a Russian mod, with English subtitles, that lets you play as Gordon Freeman before that fateful day.

As the name suggests it takes you through your induction and some training.

There’s no combat, but you do need to use your crowbar to help a fellow scientist.

SP Balcony

for Half-Life 2

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

This is a rescue mission. You need to rescue Uriah, a Vortigaunt.

Be careful though because if he dies the mission ends. In fact you have to protect him from himself because he is very brave.

Can you get him out of his cell and lead him to a Portal? Good Luck

This mod continues from the end of Pyramid and sets the player in a world where the sea is rising.

You encounter almost all of Half-Life 2’s enemies and a great outdoor area.

There is some interesting backtracking and even a bonus map if you are lucky.

SP Lockdown

for Half-Life 2

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

This was the first entry for my DM2SP competition. It re-converts the DM_Lockdown map back into an SP map.

However, it adds a small group of rebels to rescue and escape via a helicopter.

There’s even a simple puzzle to drop the forcefield.

Physics Drydock

for Half-Life 2

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

This map was originally made for HL2 Deathmatch but due to its nature it is possible to play it in Half-Life 2 or even Garry’s Mod.

It takes place in a drydock and the player has the ability to start certain physics effects.

It can be a resource hog, although being a few years old now most players shouldn’t have much trouble running it.

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

Another entry for a very old mapping competition. I am sure you will realize that this didn’t win!

Can you survive the final test?

Lvl0-0-Rebuild

for Half-Life 2

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

You find yourself in an alley that leads to a small trainstation.

From there you need to follow the clues and reach a specific point.

Be careful because your way is blocked at certain points and the use of the airboat is recommended, although not required.
