Bored with Portal? Then get board with Portal, courtesy of this new tabletop game from Cryptozoic Entertainment.
Designed by Valve staffers, Portal: The Uncooperative Cake Acquisition Game is a 2-4 player board game now available on Amazon. It consists of a modular board, illustrated playing cards, and several darling little game pieces, and centers on the player's pursuit of, you guessed it, cake. From the product description:
In this game of constantly shifting area control and cardplay, players move and Portal their Test Subjects to various Chambers in the Lab. At the end of each player's turn, one of the Chambers on the end of the Lab gives way, plunging all Test Subjects on it into oblivion. But, should your Test Subjects have numbered greater than all others in the falling Chamber, they earn you some wonderful parting gifts, which can include Cake. Yet, these moist slices of industrial-grade Cake must be stored in the Lab, where they are at risk of falling into said oblivion. Not to mention that your jealous opponents can pick up your Cake and move it closer to that precipice. He who has acquired the most Cake when a team has lost its last Test Subject is the winner.
With each game comes a free copy of Portal 2, making that $49.99 price tag just a little bit sweeter. Head over to Amazon to secure your copy. Prime members right now receive a 12% discount, bringing the price down to $44.
