Optimum Fear

for Half-Life

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

“Three years ago, my newly founded work associates and I started work on a portal experiment that went horribly wrong, due to “unforeseen circumstances”. Between our world and Xen, a horrifically violent alien world, a large rift in the fabric of space and time was formed. This allowed all manner of violent species to come, uninterrupted, through the portal and vanquish the Earth. They caused the apocalypse as we now know it.”

Craig’s World

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

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

There doesn’t seem to be a story but the objective is fairly clear. Get the HEV suit, find more batteries and use the elevator.

There are two puzzles and plenty of action, which should leave you wanting more.

Reach the vortigaunt for a mini-speech and the map ends.

Hopelessness 2: The Afterlife

for Half-Life

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

Something has gone wrong in Black Mesa. No surprise there and you need to find a way out. Again no surprise.

However, this time it’s not all run and gun – at least not at the beginning.

Take your time and explore carefully. You may need to use your wits before you can find a weapon.

Good Luck!

Headcrabs. Think you hate them now? Wait until after you’ve played this.

There are 5 Lambda symbols to “collect” and more headcrabs than you can shake a crowbar at.

Run, dodge, twist, jump, kill – do whatever you have to to find and reach those symbols.

Infiltration Mod

for Half-Life 2

Author’s Notes “Infiltration bases technically on the original game Half Life² from valve. The modification continues the story of the Shooter and offers an alternative action strand. You can integrate Infiltration in the HL²-storyline but it does not start at a certain point in the known story. Because the Mod is designed by hobby-designers, it… Read More
