Introduction

Pervasive. Literary. Brutal. Experimental.

MINERVA is not a conventional modification, but instead is an ongoing, episodic series of single-player Half-Life 2 maps. The first three maps, Metastasis, are currently under development by Adam Foster, with the first map released on 2nd September 2005 and the second on 3rd March 2006.

The maps are linked by a common plotline, based in the Half-Life 2 universe but with ... extensions. Significantly influenced by games such as the Marathon and System Shock series, each map will feature enigmatic directions and instructions from an unknown third party, continuous with the well-received Half-Life 1 map Someplace Else.
