It's not even in the "dead fandom" videos all over tiktok ### 4/5 — It’s like 90’s portal *2020-11-30, version 1.1.6* I love portal! It’s like wolfenstien from the 90’s meets portal. still, it’s very challenging! Graphics could be better, controls need some tightening up but overall a fun game. ### 5/5 — The game is good *2020-02-11, version 1.1.3* Hi the game is good can you add a boss battle like you have to use the portals in order to destroy the boss and the only ways that you can deafeate it is placing lazers and then it will hit the boss ### 5/5 — Best game ever! *2020-01-11, version 1.1.3* This is such an amazing game! So addicting! Highly recommend 🤯🔥🔥🔥 ### 5/5 — So addicting! *2020-01-11, version 1.1.3* This is the best hidden game on the iOs store! I showed all my friends and now they’re all addicted too.

One reason being this is a portal ripoff. Another is the bad graphics. You should be able to shoot through fences. ### 1/5 — Crashes after every level! *2020-04-26, version 1.1.3* The game crashes after every single level that I play! It is also very bad quality. ### 1/5 — Wow *2020-03-25, version 1.1.3* Yeah I’m not trying to be rude but this game needs for real help I always try to walk around but when I go to a window I go through it by a glitch and I can never get out so I always have to reload the game and then I’ll start me at the beginning again and it will keep happening I’m sorry but I do not recommend ### 1/5 — It’s not a good game DONT BUY IT *2020-01-23, version 1.1.3* It’s technically a roblox obby but WORST you can’t look down and you can not even shoot at least not for me ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2019-04-28, version 1.0.3* Did not work. Buttons were 1/2 off the screen. Could only lay down the red portal. Developers need to fix it. ### 1/5 — Broken *2019-03-11, version 1.0.3* Don’t know if it was just me but 1. The controls don’t fit on the screen, I can only see the top half of each button 2. Touch control isn’t centered, has to tap an inch to left of each button 3. Some of the levels didn’t even require portals 4. It’s just a portal ripoff with worse graphics ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good. but I need more!!! *2026-03-04, version 1.1.7* This is my first day getting this game but I’m almost done with the game so can you make more like a second game or something please and I need a story line in the second game or something or just make more levels. P.s. could you make it that you could make a portal on the ceiling and the floor in the second game? ### 5/5 — Nice *2025-12-18, version 1.1.7* This game is soo good I can’t even explain how good it is ### 5/5 — Why this is the best game: *2025-06-27* I love this game because it has portals and it’s very educational, thx for making this game ### 5/5 — Cool *2021-01-06, version 1.1.6* This game is a lot like Portal combined with Doom, but I do like the effort. ### 5/5 — Factory *2020-12-28, version 1.1.6* Lvl 3 is the best ### 5/5 — Never have been more amazed *2020-07-01, version 1.1.3* I have always wanted a game like this.the levels are tricky and challenging and I like that sort of thing.I would love it if you made a Update where you could make portals that can go vertically. ### 5/5 — This is a fun game *2020-04-07, version 1.1.3* I like this ### 5/5 — Download it! *2020-03-31, version 1.1.3* Simple and awesome game sorta like portals but different. The puzzles are really fun and thought out too ### 5/5 — Oh my gosh... *2020-03-11, version 1.1.3* This game is the most fun I’ve ever seen, but I wish you could look down and up As I play it all the time, I started being dumb and making a story... I never do that, good job!! ### 5/5 — I love this game, and I have a request. *2020-02-12, version 1.1.3* I've been playing Portal and similar games for a long time. As such, I have a bit of an urge to jump on a portal type game when I see one. This game is great. It brings me happiness to play it. However, I only have one request, would it be possible to add a level maker feature? I am aware that this would take a lot of programming, but if you would add it, I would love this, it'd be my mobile dream. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
