Oh man, why are the best games only HL2 mods?
I don't have HL2 (shooters makes me ill) and I do not want steam (DRM makes me more ill).
There's a standalone version of this great looking game?
Thanks Deep One, anyway.

Steam isn't going to sell your PC specs to North-Korea.

There was a story of Lizard men(Reptilian beings) abducting people in one of the underground cavern/mine system.People would enter them and never return.There are these reptile/insectoid being living deep beneath the earth and those aren't just legends.I honestly would never enter them, hell risking my life in a dark place where nobody could here me scream.No thanks.
Look up the movie called "DESCENT". There is a lot of truth in that movie.They went too deep and BAM!
Lost tapes did 2-3 episodes of these Lizard walking creatures.

has spoiler at end of bp. I wouldn't be able to stay in any of those places I have like an over active imagination so if I went in there I would be trying to ram the door back open after about 2 minutes, if I had a couple friends that were also like me I would ask them to go to Greenland with me to those coordinates N81.6914, W58.3154. I guess I would have to persuade them.

If you happen to visit Germany, you can take guided tours to many of its Penumbra-esque underground places i.e. under the cities of Berlin or Hamburg:
- Berliner Unterwelten e.V. (engl. "Berlin Underworlds Association")
- Unter Deutschland (engl. "Under Germany", including Unter Berlin & Unter Hamburg, website in german only)
