15 Essential Half-Life 2 Mods You MUST Play
7. Underhell
Underhell is a survival horror mode where you play as Jake Hawkfield, a SWAT officer whose wife recently died under mysterious circumstances. With his happy marriage torn apart, Jake tries to uncover the truth.
The gameplay in Underhell is tense, exciting and perfectly executed, featuring a mixture of action, mystery and horror. As in most other games, you'd expect "The House", the game's main hub, to be a place of safety and solace, but in Underhell it's utterly terrifying.
In addition to the main story, playable dreams help advance the narrative and these otherworldly sequences focus on exploration and puzzle-solving. Back in the real world, though, the action is dark, brutal and violent.
There's only a prologue and one story chapter available to play but that doesn't matter. There's a reason Underhell is one of the highest-rated Half-Life 2 mods out there.
