Most of this rating is because of the gameplay, no way around it. It plays with more than just the size of objects unlike you'd initially expect, and it adds a lot of breaks to the test chamber progression. But it really feels like a concept game, with a rather unmotivated narrative and ending and a wishy-washy lighthearted tone.

When will Portal's influence end? The constant test chamber progressions, lighthearted commentary and breaks into a more 'real' world have been done in here, The Talos Principle, The Turing Test, The Spectrum Retreat, Dreamo and Echo, how long has this been going on with no real innovation? But hey, it's still good.
