What a strange question. How and what have you heard about this game?
I tend to read the Mint forum regularly and I remember seeing it referred to as port1 and port2. I am sorry about my short term memory loss (sadly I have some brain damage which causes some memory loss) and all I can say is that it sounded well worth playing. I truly wish that I could offer more info. However I do appreciate any and all assistance.

The problem is that "port" is quite generic and could refer to the port of a game over to Linux i.e. it existed on another platform and then was rewritten to allow it to work on Linux. Can you remember what sort of a game it was? Board game, quiz game, 1st person shooter, etc.?
OK. I just tried portal, portal 1 and 2 with no results. Any further advice please? Thanks to all for assisting me.
no results with what?
the game portal is not likely to be in the mint repositories.
maybe it's not even a native linux game, but can be played via steam or playonlinux.
I feel like it should also be pointed out that "port1" and "port2" might not refer to a game, at all. It could be referring to USB ports, HDMI ports, or other input/output puts on a computer or other device. The context would be important for determining exactly what is being referred to. (A link to the page that references them, for example, would help.)
