Antichamber vs Half Life 2: Episode One
Antichamber
Antichamber is the sort of game you'll want to play if you have a strong appreciation for MC Escher's mind-bending worlds and you have always imagine what it'd feel like to be in one of these worlds. Being an almost impossible puzzle game where hallways wrap around each other and spaces rearrange themselves, the game aims to push you out of your comfort zone and make you question how the game work (Hint: there is no permanent set of rules in this game and eveything you know can be changed). With your trusty gun in hand, you will need to create, destroy and manipulate the very matter itself to solve the puzzles you get and move on to the next stage.Antichamber is a puzzle game that's unlike any other. If you enjoy getting your mind blown wide open, this is the type of game you'll want to play... guaranteed!
Half Life 2: Episode One
Half Life 2: Episode One is the first standalone game in Valve's spin-off trilogy for its game series, Half Life. Featuring a gameplay that closely resembles Half Life 2, its namesake, this game provides loyal fans of the game a nice continuation (somewhat) in the series' storyline. Similar to Half Life 2, this game has a lot more scripted scenes as well as puzzles and strategic combat rather than simply adding in more aliens for you to fight and weapons for you to fight with.Despite its rather short game duration, Half Life 2: Episode One gives its hardcore fans something to chew on as they wait - endlessly - for a Half Life 3. And naturally, being released in 2006, the game has a more polished look. To be honest, it's a great alternative game to Half Life 2.
