'''Portal''' is a first-person puzzle game developed by [[Valve Corporation]] and released in late 2007, first as part of [[The Orange Box]] for [[Windows]], [[Steam]], [[Xbox 360]] and the [[PlayStation 3]], and later as a standalone title for [[Windows]] and [[Steam]]. In the game, the player controls a female test subject named Chell in the Aperture Science Enrichment Centre. Guided by a female electronic voice-over of a supercomputer named GLaDOS, the player uses the [[Portal/Gameplay#Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device|Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device]] ("portal gun") to perform a variety of tests, such as creating portals to knock over turrets and other objects or moving to a previously unreachable area, so that the player may advance to the next test. | |||

{{ | Portal is set in the {{c|Half-Life}} universe, as indicated by explicit references to Black Mesa in the game. There are also many similarities between equipment in Portal and in [[Half-Life 2]]; turrets, for example, are quite similar in both games, and Portal also uses energy orbs identical to those in [[Half-Life 2]]. The backstory to Portal is explained in [[Half-Life 2: Episode Two]], although the story behind the protagonist is explained throughout Portal. | ||
You awake as Chell, a woman equipped with implanted heel springs to help her survive falls from great heights, in the middle of a relaxation room. Immediately, the mechanical voice of GLaDOS greets you. It's time to be tested as a human lab rat. Will the experiments go as planned? | |||
