Perils of Man: Adventure Game by IF Games
Designed by veterans of LucasArts' classics: The Curse of Monkey Island, The Dig and Full Throttle. Perils of Man is a modern, 3D, point and click adventure game. Perils of Man reboots the classic graphic adventure game with a moving story that will leave you pondering its profound implications.
Imagine getting a glimpse into the secret clockwork of the universe. Imagine a machine that can crack the code of destiny and give you the power to tinker with fate. Imagine discovering that for generations your family has concealed this power from the outside world. Ana Eberling may only be a teenager, but she is about to confront the biggest questions of life as she tries to solve the mystery of her father, a rogue scientist who vanished when she was just a little girl.
With striking 3D animations, challenging puzzles, and a tip of the hat to steampunk, this epic adventure spans 150 years, darting from a tramp freighter adrift in the South China seas to impending disaster at the Chicago World's Fair, bringing a host of unforgettable characters, perilous exploits, and existential riddles along for the ride.

Features:
• Fully 3D Character and Environments
• Clever puzzles and dialogues by Gene Mocsy, (Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island, 1954 Alcatraz, Daedalic) and Bill Tiller (LucasArts, The Curse of Monkey Island, The Dig, Full Throttle, Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine)
• From award-winning Swiss animation studio boutiq ag and IF Games
• Converse with over 20 unique characters
• Explore over 30 fully 3D environments
• Solve puzzles throughout history
• Haunting original score by Paul Shapera (A Steampunk Opera)
• Gorgeous graphics in native iPad Retina resolution
• Modern take on classic point & click adventure with intuitive controls
• Designed for touch interface
• Connect with Facebook and Twitter
• Hours of dialog with full voiceover localization
• Languages: English and German


Happy Gaming!

I played the first chapter of this game more than 5 months ago - and it was very nice!
But the official site still says 'Get ready for the full release in Q2 2014!' - and it is the end of Q3 now...

The official website is out of date true - what I saw at Gamescom seemed like production quality. Things always take longer than planned, and scope may have changed as well.

The game is out!
Does anybody know if it supports iPad 2? There were rumors that it was not going to support it.

I'll shoot them an email for you.

Edit: before I got my ipad air if I went to purchase a game not compatible it told me I couldn't.

BrownEyedTigre, thanks! Too bad they dropped the support for iPad 2 (and the AppStore page does not mention it).
But PC version should still be better.

It was designed for it but it has had memory pressure issues on it so he doesn't recommend you play it on it.

I know - the chapter 1 was playable on iPad 2, but it used to crash from time to time, so it seems they were not able to fix it.

It's an iOS system bug and they weren't able to get around it. I started playing last night, I'm enjoying it!

Just finished the game and I really enjoyed it! It was a challenge and I actually enjoyed the fact I had no walkthrough since it made me think. lol I will admit I looked for one. grin I can't wait for Episode 2.
