:    - Level 2 [[Workbench]]

A '''portal''' is an object through which the first [[blockhead]] warped into a [[world]] enters. Each world starts with one portal. Additional portals can be crafted at a workbench. The portal can subsequently be used to [[craft]] items, make in-app purchases, and warp in up to four additional blockheads for a total of five in a [[Single Player|single-player]] world.

==Where Found==

A portal can be crafted at a level 2 workbench for one stone and 120 [[Time Crystal|time crystals]]. Prior to [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]], it instead required 100 time crystals.

Portal upgrades require a gem of the correct type and a number of [[Time Crystal|time crystals]] dependent on the upgrade. The progression of upgrades parallels the rarity of the gems used. Portal upgrades require resources which are consumed if the requirements are met. Those upgrades unlock items that can be warped in.

Portals crafted at a [[workbench]] can be crafted into a [[Trade Portal|trade portal]] or a [[Portal Chest|portal chest]] at a portal.

 

|Qty3=100

 

A level 2 [[workbench]] can be used to create additional portals for one [[stone]] and 120 [[Time Crystal|time crystals]]. These portals are level 1 and placed directly into a blockhead's [[inventory]]. They can then be placed much as any other [[Crafting Surface|crafting surface]] except that they are three blocks tall. This is because they have both a portal's two-high "loop" and a single [[stone]] block as a base.

 

Unlike a world's default portal, the block an added portal stands on is patterned as [[Construction|placed]] stone, not smooth, natural stone. They also offer the option of being picked up and relocated by a blockhead similarly to any other [[Crafting Surface]]. Like the original portal, it can be upgraded and produce any of the appropriate products.
