✓ Same family of first-person shooters: shooter, first-person shooting and adventure storytelling

≠ Where it differs: brings puzzle design, dark, oppressive atmosphere 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.

≠ Where it differs: brings puzzle design, horror tension and dark, oppressive atmosphere

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.

It predates Metal Eden by 18 years, with what that implies technically.

✓ Same family of first-person shooters: shooter, first-person shooting and adventure storytelling

≠ Its own twist: puzzle design, precision platforming and Metroidvania exploration

A first-person puzzle game structured like a metroidvania: a small sandbox where new tools retroactively open earlier areas, and almost every corner hides something. Puzzle design is genuinely clever. Combat is the weak part — enemies are simple damage sponges that interrupt the puzzling — and the art style is plain enough to look cheap.
