BELLY APPROVED" lang: en --- Image: Half-Life (https://base44.app/api/apps/6a8733184599b395d22f69cf/files/mp/public/6a8733184599b395d22f69cf/9ee6123f6_HALF-LIFE.jpg) # Half-Life Belly Score 9.9 Platform Windows: https://bellyscore.com/best/platform/windows, PlayStation 2: https://bellyscore.com/best/platform/playstation-2, macOS: https://bellyscore.com/best/platform/macos, Linux: https://bellyscore.com/best/platform/linux Genre FPS: https://bellyscore.com/best/genre/fps, Action: https://bellyscore.com/best/genre/action, Adventure: https://bellyscore.com/best/genre/adventure Released Nov 19, 1998: https://bellyscore.com/best/year/1998 Developer Valve Publisher Sierra Studios About Step into the lab coat of Gordon Freeman, a scientist whose mundane workday at the Black Mesa research facility goes spectacularly sideways. When a routine experiment tears a hole in reality, you are thrust into a claustrophobic nightmare of alien incursions and military cover-ups. This isn't just another mindless shooter; it is a masterclass in environmental storytelling that keeps you locked in Freeman’s perspective from start to finish. With no cutscenes to break the tension, you navigate a crumbling, interconnected world where every corridor feels like a trap and every encounter demands quick thinking over brute force.
