Guide Chell and Wheatley through six test chambers in the Aperture Science Computer-Aided Enrichment Center while being monitored and antagonized by [=GLaDOS=]. Use your pinball skills to portal your way past obstacles, activate lasers, destroy turrets, and even discover the mysterious Ratman's den. Along the way, participate in some co-operative testing, detour into the turret factory and sabotage [=GLaDOS=]'s production lines, and knock some cores around for some big points. Pass all six tests and you might just face off against [=GLaDOS=] herself. Can you survive her neurotoxin and turret assaults, and take her down once and for all?
----
!!''Portal Pinball'' provides examples of the following tropes:
* BigNo: From [=GLaDOS=] once you defeat her.
* {{Combo}}s: Shooting several major shots gradually increases their point value; long enough combos cause the value to go into obscene territories.
* MythologyGag: The minimum bonus one can earn on a ball is 60 points, which just so happens to be the test subject paycheck for 1970s Aperture. It's even listed in the Bonus countdown as "Standard Testing Fee"
* PostEndGameContent: Destroying [=GLaDOS=] resets the game back to the beginning, but the time limits to beat the test chambers become much tighter.
* SkillShot: At the beginning of each ball, an orange portal will cycle between three panels. Shoot the ball into the portal to earn the Skill Shot, then immediately shoot the cross-ramp for a huge bonus. The portal cycles more quickly after the first successful Skill Shot, and cycles randomly after the second.
* SpellingBonus: Spelling L-A-B-R-A-T starts the Ratman Hurry-Up, while spelling A-T-L-A-S and P-B-O-D-Y lights their respective locks for Co-op Multiball. Additionally, upon starting a test, the normally blank lane rollovers will change to spell out something related to the current test.
* StuffBlowingUp: The second half of the [=GLaDOS=] battle involves launching bombs at her.
* TimedMission: Most of the test chambers, as well as the first half of the [=GLaDOS=] battle.
* WizardMode: This is a showdown with [=GLaDOS=] in two parts. The first is an unlimited multiball in which you have [[TImedMission three minutes]] to shut down the neurotoxin flooding into the room by shooting two pairs of lit shots to create portals, then destroy up to four[[note]]three of them can be replaced with defective turrets via the Turret Factory mode[[/note]] turrets by hitting the bumpers 10 times per turret. In the second half, you must send your balls to Wheatley to turn them into bombs, then shoot four bombs into [=GLaDOS=] to defeat her and score a 100 million-point bonus.
