Portal is a masterpiece that has you use Portal in the terrifying Aperture Science Facility which seems to the Protagonist, Chell. Complete every new test chamber, each being more deadly than the last.
The game is a great puzzle game, and has a lot of uneasy/uncomfortable feeling moments when you look at things like writing on the walls or things GLaDOS says to you.
The atmosphere, the puzzles, and GLaDOS all make this game a great experience, except maybe the final confrontation with GLaDOS as it feels very janky and tedious due to how long it can take to take out GLaDOS' personality cores, and dumping them into the furnace.
You can say the ending is a bit abrupt, though considering this is apart of the Half Life universe, it's not that surprising. Though if anything, Portal 1 is more so a puzzle game, than it is a PUZZLE-STORY HEAVY game. The story is there, but it's meh, the story really becomes amazing when Portal 2 comes along.
