About Portal 2?

Portal 2, developed and published by Valve Corporation, is a first-person puzzle-platform video game that offers both retail and digital distribution versions. The game features a series of puzzles that challenge players to solve them by utilizing a "portal gun" to teleport the character and simple objects between inter-spatial portals. The game's modified physics engine allows momentum to be retained through these portals, requiring players to use creative thinking to navigate the game's challenges. In the single-player campaign, players take on the role of Chell, while the cooperative campaign features two robots, Atlas and P-Body. Additionally, the game includes community-developed puzzles where players can take on the role of a simplistic humanoid icon. Portal 2 is available for Windows and OS X through Valve's content delivery service, Steam, and is distributed by Electronic Arts for retail versions.
