It was on sale, so I purchased a copy for myself and one for a friend for less than two USD. Was definitely worthwhile as we've already had hours of fun.

Possibly the best free PC game of all time.

Good music but perhaps wait until it's on sale.

For an eleven year old game, the graphics are pretty amazing and honestly run very well, even on low-end desktops.

☐ You forget what reality is
☑ Beautiful
☐ Good
☐ Decent
☐ Bad
☐ Don‘t look too long at it
☐ MS-DOS

The gameplay is a mix of puzzle-solving and some short action segments that necessitate moderately-quick reaction times, but nothing like competitive CSGO.
---{ Gameplay }---
☑ Very good
☐ Good
☐ It's just gameplay
☐ Mehh
☐ Watch paint dry instead
☐ Just don't

The audio is nothing special, but the music is adaptive and suits the game extremely well; there are no obvious audio-balance issues.

☐ Not too bad

Anyone who enjoys puzzles and possesses the skills to play a 3d platformer will be able to complete this game with relative ease; there is no inappropriate content. (aside from a few utterances of the words "damn", "crap", and "bloody"; as well as some mild dark humour)

It's a ten-year old Valve game - they optimise them so well that nearly anyone can run them.
---{ PC Requirements }---
☐ Check if you can run paint
☐ Potato
☑ Decent
☐ Fast
☐ Rich boi
☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer

A few of the rooms are a bit challenging, but that's puzzle-solving; the difficulty is slowly ramped up but by but. level by level, but never enters into the realm of impossible.
---{ Difficulty }---
☐ Just press 'W'
☐ Easy
☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master
☑ Significant brain usage
☐ Difficult
☐ Dark Souls

You can try challenge mode (speedruns of fastest time or fewest portals for a particular level) after you've completed single-player, but that's completely optional.
---{ Grind }---
☐ Nothing to grind
☑ Only if you care about leaderboards/ranks
☐ Isn't necessary to progress
☐ Average grind level
☐ Too much grind
☐ You'll need a second life for grinding

The story ties together extremely well with that of Portal (1); plenty of twists keep the game exciting.
---{ Story }---
☐ No Story
☐ Some lore
☐ Average
☐ Good
☑ Lovely
☐ It'll replace your life

It could take anywhere from several hours to several days to complete the single-player campaign, depending on how quickly you solve each test chamber and how much you play per day.
---{ Game Time }---
☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee
☐ Short
☐ Average
☑ Long
☐ To infinity and beyond

Definitely one of the best single-player games on steam if you can afford it.
---{ Price }---
☐ It's free!
☑ Worth the price
☐ If it's on sale
☐ If u have some spare money left
☐ Not recommended
☐ You could also just burn your money

I've not seen any bugs, as it's a highly-polished Valve game.
---{ Bugs }---
☑ Never heard of
☐ Minor bugs
☐ Can get annoying
☐ ARK: Survival Evolved
☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs
