In stark contrast to Portal 2 is The Talos Principle, a beautifully stark game that is all about the puzzles. Or you could find out the cake is a lie (see, I told you).
You’re in luck though, since the game is so cheap nowadays, you can easily grab a couple of copies, a friend, and get cracking on some of the most fun times you’re likely to have. If you haven’t played Portal 2 then you’re sadly missing out on not only an excellent puzzle game, but just an awesome game overall.
Picking up from where the single-player story ends, you and a friend get put in charge of a couple of robots and continue the story of Aperture Science. Accompanying you is Wheatly, a seemingly inept robot voiced hilariously by Steven Merchant which really just make the dialogue and world shine.Īs you might expect, you can finish the game in single-player mode, but grabbing a partner and playing in co-op really adds to the fun.
GLaDOS is constantly harassing and berating you, almost always driving you to move forward.Īs mentioned, you also get to understand the purpose behind the facility, as well as origin stories for different characters, including the mysterious founder, and even GLaDOS herself. Equally important is the story, which really ties the puzzles together and engrosses you in the world. The box of toys you get to solve puzzles with also helps a lot towards that goal, and sometimes it’s just a matter of finding the right execution, rather than trying to figure out an exceedingly complex puzzle.
