Portal 2 came along in 2011, and offered a more substantial game released all on its own. Her darkly humourous robotic narration reveals very quickly that this situation isn’t even remotely okay, and you’ll soon discover why GLaDOS is considered one of gaming’s greatest villains. In the Aperture Science testing facility (a different research centre in the same universe as Half-Life’s Black Mesa) our silent protagonist Chell is led through some portal gun testing by GLaDOS. The story of Portal is what elevates the game from great to exceptional. More so than all these memorable chapters though, the final sequence and meeting with GLaDOS is one of the great moments in gaming history.

You’ll need to use these to put boxes on switches to open doors and find inventive ways around the facility. Your portal gun can fire two different coloured portals, and if you walk through one you’ll come out of the other. You’ll typically be presented with a test chamber to make your way through, and need to use your portal gun to solve the puzzles to do so. In case you’ve been living under the rock, Portal is a first person puzzle game that came as part of The Orange Box in 2007 featuring portals. Two of these GOAT contenders are the Portal games, which are now available on Switch in the form of the Portal: Companion Collection.
