Portal 2 is an absolute masterpiece in game design from the single most consistently good game developer.

Entropy : Zero 2 is without a doubt, the best Half-Life mod I have ever played. In fact, from a gameplay perspective, it was more enjoyable than most of Half-Life 2 itself (personally).

Story fits within the canon, gameplay is exciting and changes over time, campaign is quite long for a mod, even some emotional elements. I cannot express enough how important it is that you play this mod as a Half-Life fan.

While there is some jank now and again, especially concerning a physics object you need to carry in the later half of the game, the mod is excellently designed. Great texturing and asset use, with maybe a few too many chairs and tables in places that would be better empty for a fighting purpose. Sometimes the mod doesn't do a good job directing you, but those places are few and far between

An all around fantastic experience.

Omori is a game that you must go into blind.

A thrilling rollercoaster of emotions and reveals, a story of self acceptance and coming to terms with the past. All being wrapped together with an ending you wont expect.

As someone who doesn't typically enjoy RPGs, Omori's unique battle system kept the game continuously fun.

If you have any draw towards this game, play it. Play it blind. Enjoy your experience, and hopefully gain something.

Great game, abused by Valve.

Tests are well thought out and well designed, though the story and character evolution feels rushed in some places. Only twice did I ever get stuck in a situation I feel could have been better designed, only in out of bounds areas. Tests are new and creative. The mod's characters are fun, though sometimes it feels like their progression or motive changes happen too fast.

All in all fun experience.

Portal is a wonderful puzzle experience that is built around atmosphere. The lonely location of Aperture Laboratories creates a sense of dread as you solve puzzles in the walls. I'm sure almost every gamer has played one of the Portal games at this point, but if you have yet to play it, it's a 100% recommend from me. It's not as heart touching as Portal 2, but that's okay. Portal 1 was never designed to be heart touching, it was meant to get the player to think about themselves and their environment, encouraging them to solve the puzzles in different ways. Recommended by me.

Portal Reloaded is an amazing experience for any experienced Portal 2 player looking for something more. The game builds off of the testing mechanics found in Portal 2 in a clever way that boggles the mind until you get it. The 3rd time travel portal is pretty confusing at first. Due to the fact that we are used to placing portals in two positions to create a way to travel. Once you understand the mechanics of the 3rd portal, it gets much easier. Although the game isn't Portal Stories: Mel level of story, it still has a small plot line. The endings are short, but build into the overall universe. As stated on the store page, I would not recommend this to any casual player. The only bad aspect about this, is that it doesn't have the same level of flow. Where as Portal 2 eased into its mechanics, Portal Reloaded throws them right at you will nothing more than an introductory test that teaches you how the element interacts with the time portal. This is meant for experienced players however, so you should already understand the basics of the testing elements. Overall, this is a great game to expand your portal techniques with.

Pro-Tip: You WILL get stuck eventually. I recommend not to use the walk-though, and instead for you to sit and think about how the time portal interacts with the test. You feel much more accomplished that way.

Amazing game, if you don't like shooters I would still recommend. It was one of the first games to include a compelling story and environments. The graphics aren't very good and most buttons and control panels are just changing textures, but this was 1998. If you play this and you are a fan, think about getting the DLC, Sequels, or Black Mesa (A fan remaster of this game)
