The secret in ahl_5am is probably one of the coolest things I've seen in a game.
It's massive, disturbing, frustrating, and requires a crapload of teamwork.
ahl_5am is a map made for Action Half-Life, by a guy known as Hondo. Hondo has a thing for long secrets in his maps, but 5am takes the cake. It's a pretty fun map on its own, focusing on a city street and a hotel.
Poke around the hotel for a bit, and you just might stumble accross this out-of-place room...
Even more searching, and the secret truly begins.
Players enter a giant clock.
Each hour of the clock is its own challenge, and all must be completed before getting to 5 AM. You'll be dodging turrets, riding a crystal car, and avoiding being smashed by a giant pear, among other things.
Nobody has progressed past 5 AM, and it certainly looks like its own puzzle more than an ending. I couldn't figure it out, even after looking at the map sources Hondo released.
If you'd like to try it, grab Action Half-Life. The latest version of the game doesn't include 5am, though older versions did.
