Summary

"F.E.A.R." (First Encounter Assault Recon) is a critically acclaimed first-person shooter game released in 2005, developed by Monolith Productions and published by Sierra Entertainment. Blending psychological horror with intense combat, "F.E.A.R." puts players in the role of a point man in a special forces team tasked with containing a mysterious and powerful paranormal threat. The game's advanced AI, atmospheric storytelling, and impressive graphics create a deeply immersive experience. Players must navigate through dark, foreboding environments, battling both human enemies and supernatural entities while uncovering the dark secrets behind the paranormal phenomena. Renowned for its tense atmosphere, dynamic firefights, and haunting narrative, "F.E.A.R." stands out as a landmark title in the horror shooter genre.

An excellent masterclass in level design, weapon sounds and AI. Loses points for Mr Mapes, who is one of the least funny characters I've ever ran into, but it's still a very good time.

Struggles a bit in the middle with the Armacham levels, two hours of samey looking areas. But I like this one a lot!
