The Sprucecape Mod is a modification for Half-Life 2 Episode 2, featuring elements of classical Half-Life 2 action, exploration, horror and puzzles. In this single-player experience you step in the shoes of John Sprucecape, who is set on a dangerous quest to find his escaping family. The road to them is all but easy and John has to fight and solve his way trough the hazardous environments of Alaska. This mod has updated the original map pack with some new textures, models, locations and combat for a new refreshing experience.

I played this one several years ago and still remember it well. There's a lot of fun environments to explore, all very well-made and incredibly atmospheric. Navigating the environments was much more complex than just shooting baddies, there were lots of tasks to complete. To avoid posting spoilers, I will say that the ending was satisfying given what is strongly implied about the protagonist.

A very enjoyable mappack. The creator did an excellent job on this.

Great scenery. Amazing walking out onto that balcony.

Loved the storm setting at night. Enough lighting to broadly navigate, but darkness right in front of you. Masterfully executed.

Holy **** bro roasted himself alive on the *******. Brutal.

World-building is top notch. Love this semi-rural horrorscape.

Tense, invigorating combat. The pond is well-stocked.

Wasteland area was sad af. What a miserable lifestyle these people must've lead until they finally succumbed.

Intriguing ending that left you wanting more.

Очень классный маппинг, сюжет простой, но он есть, концовка должна была быть драматичной, но лично у меня не вызвала эмоций, так как не объясняется почему жена с ребёнком сбежала от главного героя, может быть он избивал её и то, что он прошёл через какие-то трудности ради них может говорить не об его искуплении, а о том, что он маньяк, так что концовка очень странная и даже рассмешила меня.
English(bad):
A very cool mapping, the plot is simple, but it has, the ending should have been dramatic, but I personally did not cause emotions, since it does not explain why wife and child ran away from the main character, maybe he beat them and what he went through some difficulties for them can not talk about his redemption, and maybe he's a maniac, so the ending is very strange, and even made me laugh.

I really really love this mod. It was short but sweet. The atmosphere and lighting was great, and the mapping was phenomenal. Really wish there were more HL2 mods out there like this one.

Nice little package with around 20 minutes of fun.

Very pretty visuals (with the aid of some nice community models) and an interesting background story to keep you engaged. Combat is fun and challenging.
