Half-Life: The Crossword photo

Kotaku dredges up some quirky stuff sometimes, such is the case with this Half-Life crossword, created by one of its readers. Definitely among the more imaginative pieces of videogame craftwork I've seen.

Since I'm a gamer, I am too stupid and ignorant for wordgames and their frightening, confusing ilk, but you might be interested in completing this Half-Life crossword. Be warned though, that a view of Half-Life: Full Life Consequences and its sequel, What Has Tobe Done are required in order to complete it. You won't regret having to view at least one of those, though.

To Gamechamp: Sorry, No. I'll add Frohman and Concerned in the next, massive crossword though. I've gotten a lot of requests for it.

It's not a true crossword when one word only shares two or three letters with other words. Then what's the point? That makes it just another quiz.
