Grounded comes to mind

Ah yes, good old ttt_teenroom.

Those maps make callouts very easy because pretty much everything has a name already, so you don’t need to argue about what’s what.

There’s a survival game called Grounded that’s basically this but even smaller. And a coop story action/adventure called It Takes Two that does the same.

I’ve been playing through It Takes Two with my SO, such a great game. I’ll have to check out Grounded, 40% off right now.

I haven’t actually played it yet, but HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed has been in my Steam library for ages. That looks like it may scratch your itch …

I really miss some “toy soliders” 3D shoot-em-up that I can just baaaaaaarely remember from the 1990s … does anybody remember the game I’m thinking about? (There was definitely a series, I distinctly recall the name ending in “2” …)

Army Men: Sarge’s Heroes 2? I played the shit out of that

I love(d) them, too!

Maybe check out Tinykin, it’s great!

That looks awesome! So glad I made this thread! 😀

prole,

Came here to say Tinykin. Great game that nobody ever seems to talk about. Hard to recommend irl as well since the name makes it sound like a kid’s edutainment title or something.

There’s a freeware (open source but copyrighted art) shooter called World of Padman, that’s pretty much what you’re describing.

EDIT: You wanted “modern” but, it’s slightly less so. Sorry.

Wow, freeware. Now that is a blast from the past. Definitely gonna have to try that out, thanks!

I get old school Quake vibes from this. I love it.

llii, (edited )

I think it’s in some way based on a quake engine.

I played it years agon, maybe i need to try it again after all this time.

Mandatory Dishonored 1 and 2 recommendation, but Prey is also very good

TF2 has some good ones. Those were the days, along with the original prop hunt, rocket jump maps and sledding.

embit, do gaming w Anyone else remember those giant scale maps that used to be in shooters? e.g. bathroom, kitchen, office, backyard, that made you feel so tiny?

Supraland is also a good game

Man, this post brought me back memories of Unreal Tournament (and 2k4) and now I feel very nostalgic for all those custom maps and weapons. Used to spend so much time playing giant insta-gib deathmatches (and when I had all the time in my late-teens/early 20s). Wish that game is still supported.

rnd,

What are your opinions on Xonotic? It’s a FPS that borrows many things from Quake and UT games, features a lot of modes and has an active online community, so I think it could provide a similar feel?

I used to play a ton of Quake 3 Rails only Instagib! I was hosting a Q3 server for a while not long ago, but just didn’t have the time to dedicate to it. Might be fun to spin up again. It would run 24/7 with bots so I’d just hop in and out during lunch downtime or something.

What a throwback.

Lots of great suggestions already but I want to throw in another recommendation for Splinter Cell. The series lost it’s identity later on, but Chaos Theory still holds up in my opinion with some great levels.

My kids showed me some Minecraft maps with that concept. Unfortunately I don’t know where they got them.

In the Thief: The Dark Project mission The Sword you can find a gigantic room.

    Second one is stealth based as well. In fact there are even bigger levels where you’ve to cross multiple checkpoints to finally be safe, and while you can try to kill your way out, you usually have ammo for 2 kills max while you’ve to cross 10-15 foes, so practically that isn’t an option.

    AugustMetronome,

    Plague Tale was fantastic, OP would probably really like them based on other games on the list.

    Check out the Sniper Elite series. The most recent games have a good, challenging, and engaging Stealth mechanic to them.

    Haven’t seen this concept for a while. I remember playing shit out of Airfix Dogfighter, where you were basically controlling a plane model from WW2 and fighting around the house with other planes. Great game
