Tom Francis was once famous for his blog posts about taking the gnome through Valve games, first Half-Life 2: Episode Two, then Left 4 Dead 2. With the latest entry in the Half-Life series, Half-Life Alyx, well and truly out since March of 2020 and no blog post by Tom about taking the gnome through to the end of the game for the achievement, I have decided to fill the gap at least until he writes one of his own.
