Salles de Test
Les Salles de Test sont une partie vitale de la série Portal et du Centre d'Enrichissement d'Aperture Science. Via les Caméras de Sécurité fixées sur les murs dans les salles, GLaDOS peut aisément suivre la progression d'un sujet de test.
Il existe plusieurs centaines de salles à travers le Centre d'Enrichissement, pouvant être facilement reconfigurées et recyclées pour en former une nouvelle. Dans Portal 2, ces salles peuvent être construites par GLaDOS par l'utilisation de bras robotiques portant des panneaux combinés entre eux afin de former un plafond, un sol et des murs.
Esthétiquement, ces endroits ressemblent fortement à un hôpital avec leur environnement stérile; dû à la lumière dans les salles et à la coloration noire et blanche des parois.
Mode Challenge
Dans Portal, des salles challenges peuvent être trouvées dans le menu "Cartes bonus". Cependant, dans Portal 2,le mode Challenge peut être joué en sélectionnant "Mode Challenge" en solo ou coop puis la salle désirée.
Les cartes challenges sont structuralement identiques à leurs homologues de la campagne principale à la différence qu'elles comportent des options augmentant la difficulté sur un aspect précis. Elles demandent de finir la salle avec:
- le moins de portails placés,
- le plus rapidement possible,
- le moins de pas effectués (Portal seulement).
Dans Portal 2, player stats will be saved into the Steam leaderboards. This allows the Steam community to keep track of friends and other players who have beaten them in either least portals created, or least time taken to complete a test chamber.
Salles avancées
Seulement dans Portal, these are variants of the test chambers which have been redesigned with an advanced difficulty curve, for instance by decreasing the number of portalable surfaces, or by increasing the presence of Goo.
Like challenge chambers in Portal, advanced chambers can be played via the "Bonus Maps" section on the main menu.
The Portal 2 Sixense MotionPack DLC contains advanced chambers for Portal 2.
