Description: Portal Stories: VR is a brand new mini story set in the Portal Universe. It features 10 brand new puzzles, specifically designed to work using the 360 degrees room scale that SteamVR offers. Inside Aperture, you’ll be able to use the new “Aperture Science Instant Teleportation Device” and the “Aperture Science Apparatus Retrieval Tool” to solve the new tests.

Review: The biggest issue I have with Portal Stories: VR is that it leaves you wanting a lot more than what there is. But it also has to be given credit because it is just a fan-made mod rather than anything from Valve themselves. But for a freebie, it’s well worth a look! It feels OK to play, looks good and holds your interest for a short time. I just wish it was an official Portal 2 VR update and not some fan-made demo. But credit where credit is due, this is still worth a download.
