Portal is a skill game on the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC platforms.  It is rated T for Teen.  There also is a sequel, Portal 2, out now. In the game you have a Portal gun. One side of the gun is blue, and if you shoot that side of the gun at a cement wall, it will teleport you to an orange portal.  The gun also has an orange side.  If you shoot that at a wall, and then shoot the blue wall next to it, you’ll go through the blue portal.  The gun shoots blue and orange colors.

Blue and orange portals

The purpose of the game is to escape the building you’re trapped in, and all you have for a weapon is your portal gun, which takes you to different places in the building.  Beware of the bad robots in the game that can shoot you.  You can’t shoot them back, but you can knock them down.  You can find out how if you play!

You should check out both Portal and Portal 2.  Portal 2 is now available for $29.99 and you can buy it at Game Market inside Xbox 360, at he Playstation Store inside the PS3, and download it onto your PC. You can also buy it at Game Stop and Best Buy.

I would give this game five of five stars.
