    Portal is an incredible gameplay concept, that had an incredible game built around it. The story and pacing are good, the jokes are funny, and holy **** that 3rd act is something else
    Incredible game 9.5/10

    Just a fun game puzzle with a fun story. Really not anything to dislike. Well done

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best games of all time. The ending is just great. If you haven't played it yet, play it now! Unfortunately, it's very short, which doesn't bother me because I've already played it 5 times, and the developer console adds to the fun.… Expand

    The villain makes this game prefect. Not gonna tell you much about the villain. But I will tell you that this game is a simple masterpiece. The test chambers in this game are pretty good. If it's a Valve game... YOU KNOW IT'S GONNA BE GOOD. There's only really like 2 Valve games that are bad. This low count of bad games makes them the King of gaming (I'm looking at YOU 343).

    Portal was what sold me on the concept of the orange box, honestly. The concept behind portal greatly intrigued me to begin with. When I finally downloaded it off of steam and played it, I was not disappointed.

    Too short for a full game. But existing levels are interesting, and the story is quite fun.

    Valve really needs to make more new games with their IPs man. Portal has one of the most unique and creative concepts for a game I've ever seen, and the potential this series has is through the roof. The execution of those ideas, while flawed in a few ways, still made for an excellent experience, and I can confidently say that even with only two games, Portal is one of my favorite series.Valve really needs to make more new games with their IPs man.

The execution of those ideas, while flawed in a few ways, still made for an excellent experience, and I can confidently say that even with only two games, Portal is one of my favorite series. While the first game does suffer from the campaign being too short, along with a couple of bugs here and there, those are nitpicks in the grand scheme of things. The puzzles feel so satisfying to complete, the level design is very impressive, and character/story wise, it's actually a really funny game. Both games in the Portal series excel at what they do, and while Portal 2 has more depth and is way more replayable these days, you shouldn't count out the first game under any circumstance.… Expand

    Best puzzle game I've ever played, even if not that hard. Portal is just amazing and I think every gamer should give it a try.

    Un juego corto, pero entretenido de principio a fin, una mecánica de portales ingeniosamente diseñada, con un final abierto más que decente. Si te quedas con ganas de más, existe su secuela, por lo que la duración del juego, pese a ser su mayor punto en contra, se puede remediar fácilmente. Un juego adictivo, que no te hará despegarte de la pantalla hasta que termines

Sua história é relativamente boa, preparando-nos para o que viria a seguir, em sua continuação. Tem bons gráficos para sua época e não exige muito dos computadores para ser jogado, o que é um ponto muito positivo, por ele rodar em quase qualquer PC. Sua gameplay é fluída, sendo muito raros os bugs (em minhas gameplays foram nulos) e se torna muito desafiadora, principalmente nos Mapas Avançados e Desafios, apesar de ser um jogo de quebra-cabeça. Minha única reclamação é o fato do jogo ser bem curto, tendo apenas umas 4 horas de gameplay no modo história. Apesar disso, vale muito a pena seu preço em promoção, que é sempre recorrente. Recomendo comprar Portal 2 junto, ou o pacote dos dois jogos, porque a sequência desse jogo é uma obra-prima.… Expand

    Portal dönemi için oldukça yaratıcı bir oyun. Şu an oynandığında dahi sırıtmıyor. Oyun için yapılmış amatör bir türkçe dublaj dahi var. Valve yine yapmış yapacağını.

    It's a good, cult game. It has no drawbacks within its own genre. Even over time, it hasn't lost its interest.

    It is a clear piece of work that showcases the mechanics and modernity of the Source engine. It is a game that must be played by those who love puzzle games.

    Great puzzle game, thoroughly enjoyed almost every moment, some puzzles here are more frustrating than challenging, however, mostly due to the pretty wacky physics engine. Overall it's a great, simple puzzle game, that is merely overshadowed by just how much of a sheer masterpiece its sequel is.

    Videojuego excelente. Este juego de puzles basado en el uso de portales resulta revolucionario, siendo muy entretenido de jugar; si a esto le sumamos una muy buena narrativa y un villano tan carismático, surge la combinación perfecta.

    Portal es una obra maestra. Cuando empecé a jugarlo, no entendía el por qué de las tan buenas críticas al juego. El inicio es muy simple y cuando digo muy, es muy simple. Pero, cada vez el juego se iba volviendo mejor. Cada puzzle es más difícil que el anterior, con una idea que es muy simple y al mismo tiempo compleja (como es el usar dos portales para ir a distintos sitios), que se usa de forma genial durante 19 niveles.

    La historia es simple (no por ello mala, es bastante original) pero lo mejor es sin duda su villana: GlaDos. Glados es de los mejores antagonistas que he visto en mucho tiempo, porque solo te quiere para que hagas las pruebas y a tu casa, solo quiere que la obedezcas y ese humor sádico que tiene a veces es genial.

    Los puzles son magistrales, de los mejores que me he encontrado en videojuegos, que se complementan con un diseño de niveles perfecto que te tendrá horas atrapado en Aperture Science. La ambientación es de locos, con unos sonidos perfectos para el entorno y un estilo artístico muy minimalista pero muy funcional.

    Es imprescindible. Solo te pido que lo juegues.    … Expand

    A brilliant idea with the portal gun, the gradual introduction of new elements to the puzzles, a wonderfully built plot and atmosphere. My only complaint is that the game is too short!

    One of the best puzzle games I've ever played. Each level was hard enough to make me consider how to get past it but also not to hard to make the actual solution be nonsense. I just wish Portal was longer.

    The idea behind Portal ends up being more brilliant than Portal itself. Regardless, we definitely had a lot of fun with what is there and appreciate the level of polish and thought that went into the presentation.

    Portal is a magnificent puzzle game. The titillating wrongness of every solution and the wonky thinking required to get there make you feel like a space-folding genius, and yet you'll almost never get stuck.

    One of the most interesting and delightful things Valve's ever done, but also one of its least fulfilling. If only we had our own portal gun to bridge the gap to the first infusion of new content, perhaps we could forget it.
