April 2024

If you doubt the existence of extraterrestrials or at least don't believe in the time machine, Portal 2 is the best game to believe that the developers made this game from the future. The puzzles are very creative - the characterization is very strong - the dialogues are funny and psychologically scary at the same time After more than ten years, it still brings a pleasant experience
