Something not really mentioned in the article is that Portal is very funny. The voice of Glados is constantly messing with you: asking you to bring your daughter to work with you for testing over the acid pits, lying to you about obvious things, etc. This personality and sense of humor helps drive things forward and keeps you entertained while you're fiddling with what are essentially logic puzzles. I've never really seen a website or app pull off humor to the level that Portal achieves. The closest thing I can think of would be something like the "You Suck at Photoshop" tutorials on YouTube: ▶ this video
