  • Puzzle
  • First person
  • Co-op

Physics puzzles with a gun that creates portals, paired with brilliant humour and two unforgettable characters. Its co-op campaign, separate from the single-player one, is among the best you can play as a duo.

Why play it now

When you want to think a bit and have a laugh. Each chamber takes minutes and the campaign moves at a good pace.

Who it's for

For everyone: it's accessible, clever and great fun. The co-op is ideal for playing with someone.

When not to pick it

If you want progression or replayability: once solved, the game is done.
