- Prequel for Half-Life. The mod allows you to look and take part in events before Half-Life. You assume the role of Dr. Gordon Freeman. You will meet Dr. Isaac Kleiner, Dr. Eli Vance, Barney Calhoun, Dr. Rosenberg and other characters.
- The game takes place a day prior to the Black Mesa Incident, in which Gordon Freeman starts his first day at Black Mesa. He interacts with Eli Vance and Isaac Kleiner (whose original bald scientist and black scientist models are modified to give them their Half-Life 2 (2004) appearance) introduce him to the facility, with Eli showing Freeman to his dorm. Dr. Arne Magnusson also appears and Alyx Vance makes a voice cameo as a baby. One segment of the game is actually in the English language, which is the "Hazard Course" chapter which shows Freeman before he gets his training. This is due to this chapter being taken directly from the PS2 version of the Hazard Course, in which Freeman gets an introduction from two scientists before starting the course. In reference to a story told by Alyx in Half-Life 2: Episode One (2006), a chapter allows the player to race Barney Calhoun to access Dr. Kleiner's lab. Freeman later arrives at the Anomalous Materials labs to run a test on a Xen crystal with Rosenberg overseeing it. The player then goes to get their tram and witness Barney passing by on his tram to work (crossing over with Half-Life: Blue Shift (2001)). Freeman then awaits his tram which then directly leads into the original Half-Life (1998).
