Garry's Mod (2013) PC

Garry's Mod is the official modification for the popular Half-Life 2 shooter. The project is made in the form of a physical sandbox and is named after Harry Newman, actually its main developer.

Once on the selected map with an arsenal of weapons from Half-Life 2, the gamer is free to choose further actions independently.

Modes

In addition to the standard sandbox for Garry's Mod, a large number of modes have been created to diversify the already interesting gameplay. Many of them are multi-user.
