60 of 152 · most liked firstBack to the future! Perils of Man is a nice point&click adventure game. It offers quite good story combined with good puzzles and pretty artstyle. You play as a girl who wants to uncover the secrets of her father who was a scientist and disappeared long time ago. The story involves altering the time which will let you to explore very different environments and interact with with wide variety of characters. The gameplay is the usual point&click style. Although the puzzles are pretty…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Perils of Man is a fantastic point and click. The art style, animation, music, and voice acting are all fantastic. Helping set atmosphere and help guide you. Ana, the main character certainly does a lot of talking. Although it adds to the experience as you know what's going through her mind while she narrates the story. The puzzles aren't too difficult so far, but as someone that's never been very good at puzzle games they can take me longer to figure out than someone more proficient.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wished I could recommend this game, but after 8 hours of mostly unsatisfactory clicking around, I decided I cannot. I could have stopped earlier and ask for a refund, but I generally try to support indie efforts, so there it goes... The game is nicely designed and the story had a lot of potential, that being the main reason I bought it, but ultimately fails to deliver on almost every aspect: - the hotspot finding is a pain, - poiting the character in a certain walking direction is…

Graphics 7 of 10 I liked the comic style 3D environment of the game, very detailed settings .Although no way high-end graphics .Still very adequate for a point-and-click game. Gameplay 7 of 10 You play Ana Eberling a curious teenage girl trying to uncover the family secret and maybe find out what happened to her father. Classic point-and-click game, combine object A with object b and use…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Point and Click adventure game Perils of Man (or The Perils of Man, if they make up their minds), by IF games, takes you on a journey through time. You play as Ana: after getting a present from her missing father, she wants to learn more about the gift, about him and try to find where he is now. The game in itself is nice and short, controlled mainly by the mouse, though you can use your keyboard to call up the inventory, which was handy. The graphics might not be everyone’s cup of tea,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Risky Business Pretty much everything thing we do has an element of risk attached to it, there are clichéd risks like crossing the road, once you’ve set foot upon the tarmac, there’s a chance you won’t make it across to the other side, it happens to people every day. There are the obvious risks like, “I’m going to go sky diving” good luck with that! Then there are the more subtle risks like... making yourself a coffee. How could that be risky? Well... you grab your favourite mug, flick the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Meh ... I feel mixed about this one. I suppose if you really want another point-and-click in your library, or you love them all, then this is for you. The best way I can think of to describe the art and animations would be "goofy." It is also lacking in QC (sensitive hot points, funky camera, dialogue and its choices, some animations). The story is OK, but it builds to a choice you don't actually get to make, as the dialogue options end and the cut scenes begin. Overall, for me, it was…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this as a Christmas gift from a friend (thank you for that, you know who you are!) So I thought to myself you know what, I feel like playing a point and click as it's been a while. It is rather short so I do hope they will bring us more of this story eventually as I’m still filled with certain questions (so maybe one day a prequel, sequel, part two,..?) The story itself is very lovely to walk through and follow. I rather do not reveal anything about it to not take away the full…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →78 / 100 Perils of Man (PoM) is a delightful adventure of discovery, following Ana as she unravels deeply buried Eberling family secrets in search of her missing father. There is an underlying emotional resonance that grows as the story progresses covering topics like regret, sacrifice & how ones decisions often impacted other family members. Although this may sound dark, PoM is actually a rather warming story, often taking the innocent perspective of youth. The mystery unfolds at good pace,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A wonderful story driven point and click game with puzzles that make you think but not want to pull your hair out.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →(Worked on linux/Nouveau until half-way through, then systematically froze. At least I was able to locate and transfer the save to W10 to finish the story.) Not good enough. You can predict that the game will technically tank: it's in 3D. The full game, not just the cutscenes and the trailer. The 3D Point n' Click experiment was justly abandoned 20 years ago, yet someone decided to ignore the obvious, so here you've got: - Wrong cameras - Invisible spots - Impossible moves - 10 clicks…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Short version: 67% If you like adventure games, you are ought to enjoy this short, flawed little gem. It is obviously suffering from lack of proper funding, but the story about a young girl discovering her time-travelling family’s secrets holds a few enjoyable moments. Long version: As unoriginal as it sounds, a family of inventors who discover time travel and the means to predict dangers can be a foundation for a great adventure series. For the most part, Perils of Man tries to follow up on…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoyed the puzzles for the most part, but the story wound up being disappointing. Without spoiling anything, suffice it to say that some of the central mysteries of the game are never resolved.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't look at just the nagative rating and move on, there are still good things about this game, especially if you're into point-and-click adventures and/or stories about time travel. Pros: +Interesting visual style, concepts +Good (not great) voice acting overall Cons: -This game is SHORT. -Cutscenes are pre-rendered and didn't run at a decent framerate for me. -Oh yeah, and there are a lot of cutscenes. -Poor execution of a time travel theme. -This game is a iOS mobile port, not PC native,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you enjoy classic point and click adventure games, especially if you enjoyed the incredible "The Raven" which came out recently, DEFINITELY take a look at this gem. It takes a little bit (getting past the first half hour of gameplay) to really get into it and used to the gameplay, but once the story kicks in, you won't be able to stop playing until you beat the game. Which will take an average adventure game player 3-4 hours in total - longer if you stop to smell the roses. I found a few…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An amazing little hidden gem. Point & click, fairly linear, so- limited replayability. But quite charming, in a dark and sometimes sinister way. Campy humor, some really nice easter eggs, especially for geeks and wannabee geeks and hipsters. None of the puzzles were terribly difficult, but they all did require some use of brain-power, in varying degrees. But none so tough middle school children with average intelligence could not solve them. Graphics are colorful, and I really liked their…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As fascinated as I was by this game, it's all ended in frustration. The art style and story seem quite amazing, but a recurring gameplay 'bug' keeps staggering my progress which results me having to restart the game from the very beginning. After a few hours of this, I've given up. I despair I'll never bother to finish this game, as there's just too much risk of no pay-off. I'm sorry, but I can't recommend something that won't work. :(
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game defines Point N Click Adventure. Everything about it is a joy to play. I loved every moment from beginning to end. Lots of interesting locations and characters. A pretty cool involved story. A couple of the puzzles were either far reaching or didn't make sense at first so I consulted the walkthrough a couple of times. And it really could use a hotspot indicator. And the common complaint for almost all P&C games is we all wish they'd allow WASD control. Otherwise this was exactly what…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wanted to like this game, but I couldn't. One of the biggest issues is the 3D camera, which makes navigation tricky and frustrating. The inventory is also buggy, and getting items out of your stupid inventory feels like more of a puzzle than the actual puzzles. The story feels hollow and empty. It had potential, but it didn't deliver. And everything is too slow. If they'd just done things in 2D and spent more time developing a good story and dialogue, this could have been a pretty good game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Perils of Man is a point-and-click adventure game, and a rather good one, at that. The science-fiction premise is interesting, the emotional attachment becomes stronger as the game moves on, and the invention that factors so prominently into the storyline is quite original. Pros: + Most puzzles are fairly logical and can be determined by thinking through the clues and items you've already uncovered. One of the most satisfying feelings in an adventure game is to work something out in your…

Story 8/10: The game easily gets your attention from the moment you start to play in which the game makes you start wondering around discovering what you have to do depending on clues been given, Also the game tries really hard to make the characters more appealing to you by letting…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Like most point and click games, this one starts out funny, but I didn't expect it to get so serious. The gameplay is fun, but the real strength of this game is the storyline. It's rather sad and bittersweet at times. I didn't expect the writing to be so well done. The gameplay is rather easy. It's just a matter of finding every item in the area. Conversation is important too as some things aren't unlocked until you find out about them thru conversation. The game doesn't take very long to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →1. The story is a historical time time travel mystery with a dash of quantum leap (a 90's TV show) inspiration. It's fairly solid and equally well written and like the average Hollywood movie you'll have to gloss over a little plot hole here and there. As you'd expect there's a twist and I'll happily admit for once I didn't see it coming. 2. Graphics and visuals are good, nothing spectacular, but, for a 7 year old indie point and click title, it doesn't look as old as it is. 3. The voice…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is one of the first adventure games I ever played. Normally I'm more into third person adventure games, but this game was recommended to me by a friend. After playing it for several hours I quite enjoy myself. It's fun to walk around and solve puzzles. It's not to hard to progress and I never got stuck. Especially the music and sound effects give the game a lot of atmosphere. One other thing I like about Perils of Man is the jokes and humor, it's cleverly written. The animations could…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Perils of Man is a great example of a terrible adventure game, and I struggle to see why others have recommended it. The gameplay is very linear, and completely without challenge: only those items that are relevant to the area you are in are available in your inventory, and access to "puzzles" is often locked behind arbitrary and unrelated dialogue trees. I usually enjoy listening to everything that characters have to say in adventure games, but in Perils of Man it is a chore. Characters say…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Perils of Man is a Point-And-Click-Adventure with a creative, yet well understandable story. The cutscenes of this game are really nice, almost feel mystical and creepy in some way. Its puzzles are pulled off greatly which leads to about 5-7 hours of playtime. This adventure is pretty cool, yet has minor flaws like bit confusing or awkward controls at some points, but that doesn't happen THAT often. The storyline of this game takes you back in time to the relatives of Ana, even up to her…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Meh. It's short. It's easy. The length of the game is blatantly padded out by forcing your character to *slowly* walk everywhere – I tried double clicking, triple clicking and pressing several keys – not even a mild jog. The time required to solve puzzles is also padded out by somewhat picky object selection and forcing you to sometimes hover your mouse over the entire screen just to find some thing you didn't know you needed. Oh! And dialogue trees. What's the point of even giving me dialogue…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Didn't like this game much. The story is somewhat interesting but it feels underdeveloped (should have had many more locations), and the ending is confusing and doesn't explain anything. Also I had trouble with finding small hotspots in a few scenes. I also experienced some graphical/gameplay glitches. For instance, at some point, when I click on a pump, it says, "I only need to do <action>, then I can use this pump". Then after completing <action>, when I click on the pump again, it just…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoyed myself with this title but some of the negative reviews have merit. The title is pretty short. I took my sweet time with everything and it took 3 hours to complete. There are no real puzzles to speak of, if you see the item and collect it then it becomes pretty obvious what to use it for. The story is interesting and kept me playing but it IS VERY linear. IF you are looking for a short interactive story this game will serve you well. If you are looking for a challenge with a story…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First chapter is the brightest part. Further this is boring and buggy adventure with plot holes, seems like devs was on the rush and rest of the game is disappointment (. European looking crew from Tokyo on the Japanese ship carrying donkeys. Really?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Five Word Review: A delightful adventure, not Thomas. Favorite Thing: Darwin. He's such a charming little bird. + I liked the story. It was both fun and odd. + Nice art style for the characters. - Lots of unanswered questions. Playtime: ~ 4h Enjoyment: 7/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game will take you all of 4 hours to complete from start to finish, without a guide. There are no real puzzles as such to solve as it's all so blatantly obvious, with no margin in order for you to figure anything out. You can't even explore another location other than the one you are supposed to be in. The voice overs are awful, at one point even the wrong voice/character spoke from the script than they were supposed to be! It was awkward, largely naff, and cringeworthy. If you like point…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm sorry but the shrill voice acting of the main character was so bad, it made me NOT want to click on things or go through dialogs with other characters. So then I began to think what was the point of continuing.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is aimed at teens but my 8 year old daughter and I are playing it together and love it. The concept is brilliant and has really engaged us both and fired my daughter's thought process and imagination. We both giggle at at very posh English accents too
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a very good game some of the puzzels I found very difficult so I had to look at a walkthrough. This was the first point and click game I've played because of this game I will most defintely explore this genre more. :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An enjoyable point and click adventure with a unique story, and an interesting 'risk' mechanic. Puzzle difficulty is enough to be interesting, without overly stalling progress. No complaints here.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good. Yes yes. Also British.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice game, I have just finished it, and really enjoyed my time. There seems to be a little bit rush at the end, it is a good story but.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The premise is interesting, Ana (the protagonist) really charming, and I even got to like Darwin (the sidekick) eventually. It could have been an amazing journey, but it kinda feels cut short (at ~3 hours). The game was developed by a small team in Switzerland and this must be their first foray into adventure games (or even games in general). If there were time or budget constraints I can understand that and I'm more than willing to give them a free pass on this one. But if this was done on…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wanted to love the game, but couldn't. The biggest reason to that was cheap visual style and unpleasant controls. I finished the game in about 3 hours, but it was a drag and I felt like it took waaaay longer. Actually was surprised I finished that fast. It's really hard for me to recommend this game. Only for hardcore adventure game fans if you have nothing better to play.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The characters arent very interesting, the game moves quite slowly and the puzzles are really easy. There is not really much exploring to do
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I saw this had won some awards and decided to play it. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but I thought it was an average adventure game at best. I couldn't work out if I found the main characters voice over irritating or charming, but It just sounded like someone doing a bad British impression. It's not a bad game, just not one I would recommend going out of your way to play.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →To "The Perils of Man" έρχεται να επιβεβαιώσει ότι οι καλές και πρωτότυπες ιδέες, αλλά και οι ιστορίες που περιστρέφονται γύρω από ερωτήματα που έχουν ανά τους αιώνες απασχολήσει την ανθρωπότητα, πάντοτε διαθέτουν ξεχωριστό ενδιαφέρον. Η νέα αυτή συνάντηση των Tiller και Mocsy κατά τη γνώμη μου δίνει ένα αποτέλεσμα ανώτερο των προηγουμένων προσπαθειών τους και την ίδια στιγμή μία απροσδόκητα ευχάριστη άφιξη απ’ το iOS στρατόπεδο. "The Perils of Man" confirms that well chosen and original…

The puzzles were a lot of fun, though there were a couple of times where I just had no clue what to do next, but I usually miss the obvious lol. I feel that the game ended sort of abruptly, but that is just me and it didnt' take away from the fact that this was a pretty cool game. I would be interested in playing a sequel if they ever made one. I would love if we could have a choice and consequence thing going on as well...How…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wish my verdict could be kinder than these two words: Wasted potential. The fantastic premise could have offered so much more in terms of character development, storytelling and most importantly: MEANINGFUL CHOICES. At least in the end, multiple choices for multiple endings would have saved some grace. Because you know: for a game with a story that dramatically emphasizes the worth of risk and the consquences of change, the whole plot, down to every little segment in this story is tightly on…

Plus, was a nice change in genre since I didn't play these kind of games that much. As a 16 year old girl you try to find your missing father by solving puzzles and traveling in time. The game has some bugs since it came from the mobile port but you can unsee them if you just try to enjoy the journey! [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwjoIvkimN8] First 20min Gameplay here
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Perils of Man is a 3D point-and-click adventure with some interesting ideas. It was worked on by Bill Tiller (of Curse of Monkey Island fame, as well as the fantastic Duke Grabowski). It doesn't really stick the landing, but I enjoyed it nonetheless, and I would recommend it to casual adventure game fans. Our protagonist is a sheltered sixteen-year-old named Ana who lives with her crackpot mother in a crumbling old mansion. Ana is descended from a long line of genius inventors who all…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Perils of Man is a classic point and click game worked on by a former LucasArt dev. It's in the shorter range of games and to be honest, it was a bit too short and I'd love to play more of it; exploring the fate of Ana's mysteriously disappearing relatives (including her own father!). If there ever was a Perils of Man 2; that'd be it. The gameplay is your classic point and click, it can be a bit clunky and tbh the game feels way older than 2015. However that might be done on purpose, to mimic…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Perils of Man is absolutely charming. I found the graphics enchanting and faintly reminiscent of my favorite claymation movies. I see that other gamers had issues with bugs and lagging, but the game ran smoothly for me. The controls are a straightforward point-and-click that sometimes felt tedious when compared to the mechanics of similar games, but it worked well-enough and I enjoyed its simplicity. The real beauty of this game are the characters. They feel lovely, complex, and relatable.…
