Truly, I didn't expect much from portal, but well I was quite surprised when I played the game. The game is found as a package of the Half Life 2 package or can be bought separately. It uses the Half Life 2 engine. But trust me it is way better than Half Life 2

1. Gameplay - The game is basically in a test laboratory, where you are a test subject. You'll have to pass the tests by using teleportation portals. At the start of the game, you'll have to time it right to get through using the portals. Later on in the game you'll be allowed to create 1 portal, while the other portal remains fixed at 1 point. Even further on, you'll be provided with both the portals so that you can create your own path for teleportation. Each puzzle that you face will have to be solved using a clever mix of timing, positioning and momentum. Yes I said momentum.

2. Music & Graphics - I'll have to hand it to Valve for creating a masterpiece and giving it a generous doze of supremely high quality texturization. Even the weird voice-over that acts as your instructor had to be created with utmost care.

A true masterpiece is what this game is. But instead of reading my review any further, I'll suggest that you better go and get the game and judge for yourselves.
