Community Insight:
How to we get all routes to the game? Because Im stuck on level seven chapter one.
They said if we ever applauded Lbrgess1 we would die but here we are still alive and Im GLAD Im still alive P.s notice the GLAD for GLADOS see what we did there.
They said if we ever wrote a review we would DIE.
So far this game we fun but on Chapter 2 level 17 when you click the button the platform with the blue gel on it move every time. We wouldnt call it a bug like where the cube would weirdly move with the platform. Besides this the game is good. Edit: we somehow got pass Chapter 2 level 17, we dont know how. Now we are stuck on Chapter 3 level 2 and we think it is impossible. There is a seesaw with a cube on it but it only can get 2 inches off the ground and then lands again. It is impossible to launch the cube into a portal.
Using iPhone XR and it glitches on some levels.
We cannot beat level chapter 3 level 2.
We love the game! But there is a glitch where the Companion Cube will function like the moving platforms, and will move in whatever direction the platforms are going in. But overall it's really good.
During level 7, there was a glitch when the companion cube moves the same as the platform, so that gives the cubes an advantage to ruin the game for us. But overall, its good.
Plagiarism. Lack of nuerotoxin. No appearance by GLaDOS.chelle missing. NO PORTALS.
This game is so dumb gay and stupid because you need 45 seconds to advance and level five is IMPOSSIBLE in this game.
We are a HUGE portal fan and this game ROCKS.
Partially our fault because we made an assumption that the game was FP3D like Portal. It is not. It is, however, fun to play with portals even in a simple environment.
Using iPhone 7 w/iOS 11.0.3. Stuck on scene 2 level 13. It seems like you need to get the ball to bounce into the blue portal on the floor so it will launch from the orange portal on the wall but it is impossible to move the blue portal and every time we drop a ball it just skips over it. Ive sent a message to the developer previously about this issue and they assured us they would fix it but that was probably a year ago and the problem still exists. Its a bummer because we really like this game otherwise.
We are a huge portal fan and we were amazed when we saw this game but it is about a core named Wheatly not about companion cubes and turrets we are upset about writing this review.
Hey we have been waiting for the new update but it doesn't ready yet let us know please when is supposed to be downloadable thanks.
Portal is our absolute FAVORITE GAME OF ALL TIME!!!And we NEVER thought we would find a GAME about it instead of an app that costs money(we have none to spend)but this app us ABSOLUTELY AMAAAAAAAZIIIIING!! DEFINIATELY GET IT.
If you've played portal and or portal 2 you'll love this little game.
This is a good if not great game for anyone who has played portal. It is a constantly updated and nicely themed app. With a creator that is always in the community this game is essential for anyone who likes infinite replayability.
When we click on 1 nothing happens.
The game won't open level one. The cake is a lie.
When we click on level one nothing happens.
This game needs an update it won't let us even play level one.
Can't tap Level 1, basically can't even play the game.
When we click level 1, nothing happens. We have refreshed the app and re downloaded it but nothing happens.
We honestly think for a free app under 15mb its good. Good job with the app :D.
Hey we're quick feet in Game Center and we'd like to tell you that this game is ….. RADICAL.
Not a pad game, but it would be cool if you can hear the actual portal button sound when you pressed it.
We love Portal, and this game helps fill the Portal void on the iPhone! It starts out pretty easy but gets harder as you go. We were able to get our total time down to 36 seconds for the first 10 levels, but we are trying for under 30 seconds.
This is …. We don't know what it is. This thing is just one big bug.
This game has provided hours of entertainment. We find ourselves trying to create portals between business meetings. We're hooked.
Love the idea!! If you're a portal fan you'll love this game! Though sometimes we wish we could turn the iPhone to control the ball! Ha…but love it.
Level 1. Easy Level 2. We deleted the app Non stop Repetitious over and over throwing and adjusting we just wanted to scream shenanigans.
