Despite being an admittedly short experience, this Half-Life 2 mod is quite enjoyable, and i'd definitely recommend it if you're just trying to kill the time waiting for something, procrastinating, or otherwise. It captures the feel of old 1940s noir movies quite well, and I liked the plot of the combine going back in time, although I really did not understand why they did that. The little comicbook-like cutscenes while loading in the segments is a nice addition, as in the regular Half-Life games you're essentially just staring into a paused screen. The gunplay is essentially just Half-Life 2's but tweaked a bit, and feels nice. I do expect with open arms the next entry, Sepia. 9/10.

A bit too repetitive and quite odd but for a free singleplayer story, it's pretty damn good.

starts well. last level is best
