About the game
A first-person shooter about scientist Gordon Freeman, who awakens again in the occupied City 17. Together with the resistance led by Alyx Vance, you stand against the alien Combine. A defining feature is the Gravity Gun, which picks up and throws objects to solve physics puzzles and fight enemies. The story unfolds entirely from a first-person view, without cutscenes.
Why we recommend it
A timeless classic that changed the FPS standard with physics-based puzzles and combat, and still feels fresh today.
Good for — Great for: anyone who wants to play a classic that shaped FPS history
