Project Three

Project Three is a first-person survival horror game set in an alternate, fan-made Half-Life universe. After a resonance cascade, an ordinary trip to work becomes a fight against an alien race and the entire US army—or so it seems. As you defend yourself with melee weapons and firearms, you uncover a story that questions whether the truth is different.

Survival and combat

You must manage ammunition carefully: instead of collecting ready-loaded magazines, you manually load rounds into them. Weapons are powerful, but running out of ammunition at the wrong moment can be fatal. The crowbar can block enemy attacks, reducing or even completely negating incoming damage.

Enemies react to your presence, and encounters can involve relentless pursuit, ambushes or precise attacks. You also face environmental dangers, including tripmines and automated turrets, so advancing can be hazardous.

Enemies and hazards

• Headcrab: a small, fast parasite that leaps at victims and tries to latch onto their heads, turning them into mindless zombies. Headcrabs are weak individually but often attack in groups, making them dangerous in confined spaces.
• Zombie: a human body controlled by a headcrab. These slow, relentless creatures attack you, and some are more resilient than others. A well-placed shot is the only way to ensure they stay down for good.
• Manhack: a fast, agile flying blade drone that is difficult to hit and can overwhelm an unprepared target. Your crowbar can help against it.
• Turret: a stationary automated defense system that locks onto movement and fires on sight, making its line of fire highly dangerous.
• Tripmine: a lethal explosive trap, usually placed in doorways or narrow corridors. Triggering its laser sensor results in instant death.
