    Cheap Thrills: the Unsettling Nature of Portal

    May 16, 2022
    by column, games, Rebekah Spaargaren, Uncategorized

    I would like to preface this article by imploring that you play Portal, as my summary of the events and descriptions do not do the game justice, and the full experience can only truly be attained as a player.
