How it plays
A group can host its own server and work through the Half-Life campaign or community maps together, sharing ammo, reviving each other and solving button-and-door puzzles as a team.
The 1998 engine looks dated and the maps vary a lot in quality, but it is free and runs on almost any PC, which makes large groups easy.
