Portal is one of the most highly acclaimed and innovative puzzle-shooter game of all time. The game is set in the mysterious Aperture Science Laboratories where players, while playing as the human test subject, Chell, will need to manipulate objects and move through space by strategically opening portals to solve physical puzzles in controlled environments generated by the nefarious AI supercomputer, Glados.Featuring 19 levels in total that gets progressively more difficult than the previous, the game promotes creativity when it comes to puzzle-solving especially in the later levels, requiring players to explore various ways to best solve the level. There is also an advanced mode that drastically increases the difficulty of the last 6 levels. This is perfect for players who want to go a step further to challenge their puzzle-solving skills.
Portal is rather revolutionary in its own way and it's no wonder why the game has been awarded and nominated for multiple awards. If you fancy a fun and somewhat relaxing brain teaser, Portal is the game for you. Do check it out!
Thief Gold
Thief Gold is the very first Thief game in the franchise and it is possibly the most revolutionary back in the day. With stealth as the core of its gameplay, you'll need to use whatever tools (blackjack, sword, and a variety of arrows) and skills you have to steal goods and information alike while you gradually uncover the secret agendas of various important people in a story of deception and vengeance. The game even has advanced enemies that are more aware than most, can sound the dreaded alarms, and can communicate with other enemies to relay information.Thief Gold is a classic stealth game that many modern games are inspired by. However, the game might not have aged as well, and the graphics may put you off. Thankfully there are mods, right? Well, if you've got the chance and you love stealth games, this is definitely a game you should try.
