Favorite game of all time. The story is amazing, the atmosphere is great, the characters are fun! Then you have the co-op that anyone can get into, and the workshop chambers for limitless puzzles. 10/10 amazing game.

I liked first one better, but still really fun and the community content breathes life into the game even after you beat the short campaign.

Very Innovative game, excellent gameplay and great story as well.
5/5

one of the best games ever made tbh

valve's masterpiece. this game does no wrong


Easily one of my fav games, it still holds up super well.

9/10 - ❤️❤️❤️🖤

I skipped a college exam for this and I don't regret it.

Absolutely stunning environmental design (music included). Great puzzles, humorous dialog that really gets me into the characters and the lore.

Co-op is also really fun to play (especially messing up your friends ;D)

main story good not much time put into multi player good puzzle

Like all the best parts of Portal -- cuttingly funny and there is nothing more satisfying than flying through those portals

Good game like the first 1, just not as innovating

Very good game but overstays it's welcome towards the end

Eu acho engraçado que meu jogo preferido da vida é um FPS. Amo o gameplay, os puzzles, a ambientação, a história e tudo mais em Portal 2. <3

How about this, an FPS without combat, a puzzle game with amazing npcs, a platformer with an astounding story, this is Portal 2.
It's crazy how good everything this game does is just perfect, it's the best puzzle game ever , it's chalenges are so well-tought and the level design makes you fell like a genius when you solve stuff, but really the genius were those who made this.
Truly and all around masterpiece, and one of , if not the, my favorite games, the only problem is that i still don't have a cake :(

It's more Portal with a more fleshed out story. I don't know if story is what I'd add to Portal, but it's decent. As for the additions to the gameplay, those are extremely fun.

Portal 2 expands on all that Portal 1 had to offer and adds whipped cream and a cherry on top. New mechanics to play with, an expanded narrative, new characters, and brilliant new puzzles. Again, an essential title for anyone's Steam library considering it's always on sale and worth the price.

pretty funny. i think the puzzles are mildly easier? ending rules tho

A perfect sequel, and another brilliant addition to Valve's catalogue.

Portal 1 but longer, with more mechanics and more entertaining dialogue and characters? Hell yea man

beautiful story about robots dealing emotionally with surrogate parents

like many of you im sure, ive played this game a couple hundred times. im logging it only now because there was a long stretch of time where i just didnt replay it until now, and wanted to see if my opinions still held up.

they did. for a sequel to Portal, one of the most critically acclaimed and iconic puzzle games of all time, there is a distinct lack of puzzles in this game. it could be classified more as a cinematic platformer visual novel than anything else. there is an absurd amount of time in this game spent walking around decrepit environments with the puzzle being what bit of wall to shoot a gun at in order to progress.

despite that taking up what feels like a majority of the playtime however, when it does decide to be a puzzle game it can stand toe to toe with its older brother, possibly even outmatch it at times. there were several puzzles that stumped me, and they all hold they same ideal the first game has that once a puzzle is solved it should take almost no time at all to go through with the solution - something that inherently feels immediately satisfying and something that makes the first game so easy to go back to. even when its not being a satisfying puzzle game - something it clearly can be, just isnt all the time for some reason - it does have its shining moments. particularly, the writing.

i once heard this game described as a competition between three writers to create the best character ever, and it ended in a tie. Wheatley, GladOS, and Cave Johnson are all so charming, cleverly written, and fantastically voice-acted that listening to them is a reward in itself. Wheatley as an antagonist is serviceable for what is demanded of him and Cave Johnson is only in a small portion, but its how they tie into GladOS that makes them special. Her sharing the main character role with Chell fills the gap of a silent protagonist which the first game didnt need to worry about like this does and lets the writing really glow when Wheatley or Cave Johnson speak to her indirectly and open up more about her character. i could just write "the cave johnson part" for this review but then i'd have to give it a perfect 5/5

it is a truly great game, for sure, and there are some glimpses of pure perfection, but there just is not enough game in this game for it to stand as one of the best of all time for me.

also, not a single slice of cake in this game. god bless valve. may they rest in peace.

Great fun just like the first.


Aaa shiet here we go again. Same stuff but with a new face, puzzles but with new mechanics. This Game its an example of a good sequel; more, better and bigger (almost a Daft punk reference).

A perfect puzzle game with a actual humor.
