Zurich (Switzerland), April 28th 2015: Swiss independent developer IF Games today announced that Perils of Man, the award-winning adventure game co-created by veteran adventure game designers Bill Tiller and Gene Mocsy, will launch today at 9AM PDT / 6PM CEST on Steam for PC and Mac.

An unexpected gift from her missing father catapults young protagonist Ana Eberling into an enthralling mystery that will take her on a journey through time. Ana is amazed to learn that her ancestors were inventors of an incredible technology that enabled them to eliminate uncertainty – a power hidden from the public for generations, which might have something to do with her father’s disappearance. Ultimately, Ana must decide if a perfectly predictable world is a curse on humanity, or a triumph for mankind.

Co-created by celebrated adventure game veterans Bill Tiller (The Dig, The Curse of Monkey Island, Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine) and Gene Mocsy (1954: Alcratraz), Perils of Man reboots the beloved classic adventure genre with a refreshing blend of 3rd/1st person gameplay, striking 3D animations, challenging puzzles and a captivating story that catapults players into a hidden world of time-travel, global catastrophe and personal triumph.

Developed for PC and Mac in collaboration with Vertigo Games, the Steam release includes both episodes of the two-part Perils of Man series, with support for Steam Cloud and built-in Steam Achievements.

I'm playing this now and loving it. It's slow at first and then picks up.

If your laptop uses Intel graphics, then it's "not recommended."
If your laptop has 100% Nvidia or AMD/ATI graphics, then maybe it will work.
If your laptop has Nvidia with Optimus graphics, then maybe not since the Nvidia chip would be piggybacked on the Intel.
