"science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) software that bridges the gap between the excitement of gaming and the fundamentals of curriculum-based learning. We are an extremely passionate educational software company committed to one mission: creating relevant, exciting and useful educational software with the same level of quality found in entertainment titles. Our newest product, Time Engineers, teaches engineering, science, and math without leaving the fun of gaming behind. Students travel in a cool time machine to three different time periods and encounter typical engineering problems to be solved in order to build pyramids, irrigate farm land, command a WWII submarine, raise and lower medieval drawbridges, and much more."

"One of the biggest challenges in teaching science, technology, engineering, and math is capturing the students' imaginations long enough for them to see all of the possibilities that lie ahead," the company wrote on the Learn with Portals site. "Using interactive tools like the Portal series to draw them in makes physics, math, logic, spatial reasoning, probability, and problem-solving interesting, cool, and fun, which gets us one step closer to our goal-engaged, thoughtful kids!"
