✓ Both are first-person shooters — sharing shooter, first-person shooting and dark, oppressive atmosphere
≠ Where it differs: brings horror tension, adventure storytelling and puzzle design
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth is a first-person horror game that combines intense action and adventure elements. You will draw upon your skills in exploration, investigation, and combat while faced with the seemingly impossible task of battling evil incarnate.
Released 9 years after Alien Trilogy.

✓ Same family of first-person shooters: shooter, first-person shooting and dark, oppressive atmosphere
≠ Where it differs: brings adventure storytelling, puzzle design and strong narrative focus
A short follow-up focused almost entirely on Alyx as a companion — the AI and dialogue work is what it was really testing, and it holds up. Roughly four hours. It is the slightest of the three: much of it is dark corridors and elevator sequences, and it functions more as a bridge than as a game in its own right.

✓ Same family of first-person shooters: shooter, first-person shooting and dark, oppressive atmosphere
≠ Where it differs: brings puzzle design, adventure storytelling and horror tension
The strongest of the Half-Life 2 releases: open forest driving, the best encounter design in the series, and a Hunter fight that remains a high point of enemy AI. Roughly six hours. It ends on the cliffhanger that was never resolved, which for many is harder to sit with now than it was in 2007.
Released 11 years after Alien Trilogy.
