### 2/5 — I can’t purchase the full game or any episodes

*2023-06-17*

I enjoyed the game while it lasted but it’s not allowing me to purchase the full game or any episodes I have funds to do so but it won’t go to purchasing screen. Kind of irritating I would give a 5 star review if that was fixed and there’s no way to contact the developer directly:(

### 3/5 — I REALLY wanted to love this game

*2023-03-16*

And I actually do but problem is it won’t allow me to purchase full version. It only allows me to play the free part. When I try clicking the buy full version it won’t do anything. So that’s why I have to give 3 instead of 5 stars like I would if I could play the full game.

### 2/5 — Full game not available

*2023-02-14, version 2.0.6*

As others have said, only the preview intro chapter is available. Once it prompts you to purchase additional chapters or the full game, it just clicks.

### 2/5 — Ok but glitchy

*2019-02-04, version 2.0.6*

The game has good potential, but it’s really glitchy and it wouldn’t even let me buy the game to keep going. I don’t know how much it would cost, but if it’s more than $2 it’s not worth it until they work out the kinks.

### 3/5 — Why cant I not buy?

*2019-01-27, version 2.0.6*

This game was fun so I decided to buy the whole version. When I tried to, I DIDNT WORK. I was upset. Can you fix it so that I can buy the full version?

### 3/5 — Help please

*2018-07-25, version 2.0.6*

Please tell me how to use items in my inventory

### 3/5 — Good overall, but too short.

*2018-07-22, version 2.0.6*

A good game overall, but everything becomes too rushed after chapter two. It’s like the designers lost interest and were eager to end the story. I won’t include details that spoil anything, but information about Ana’s lineage comes at a comfortable pace in the beginning as you get accustomed to the interface and the flow of the game. After the second chapter, having just become comfortable with how to solve levels by talking to characters for clues,  finding helpful objects scattered about, and using the “secret technology” Ana is meant to unravel, the games ends abruptly with a rushed conclusion. I was expecting at least three or four more chapters to enjoy the great technology that the storyline was developing.

### 3/5 — Mixed bag point and click

*2018-04-23, version 2.0.6*

Things I liked:
- cool concept and story
- good characters and voice acting
- nice stylised animation 

Things that need improvement:
- still quite glitchy including a few weird situations where characters got stuck or out of sync with dialogue
- hard to find hotspots and missing objects - only two times I got stuck were because I was tapping on something that wouldn't respond and then would find out I was trying to do the right thing but not quite touching the right place e.g. In the hay and fountain. 
- if you are an experienced point and click gamer you'll enjoy the story but find it very easy and quite simple. I finished in around 3 hrs
- needed to solve problems by finding things and completing tasks but no actual game puzzles

I enjoyed the game and glad I bought it as I want to support this genre of game being made but.... definitely don't think it's up there with the greats of Lucas arts.
I would recommend to people who want a gentle story, kids or people who want something more than a hidden object story but not super hard. Die hard fans looking for the next monkey island may be disappointed.

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2017-12-09, version 2.0.6*

Great graphics but for experienced point and click gamers it’s too easy. They are kind of almost telling you what to do and the end is almost only dialogues like watching a movie with only some interventions from the gamers side. Also there isn’t almost no sharp humor in the dialogues which to my taste is very important in those games.

### 2/5 — game restarted so where’s my refund??

*2017-12-08, version 2.0.6*

the first chapter was really fun so I bought the full length game even though it was $5.99 and when I came back to play it (only a couple hours after last playing it), my game was completely reset. I was in the second chapter and I really don’t want to go through the whole thing again if it is just going to restart itself.

### 2/5 — First chapter is the only one you can play

*2017-10-24, version 2.0.6*

Unfortunately there is no way to purchase the other episodes. The game was really fun and engaging and I’m dying to know what happens, but it will not allow me to buy the rest of the game. I’m very disappointed

### 4/5 — Point and Click at it BEST!!!

*2017-06-12, version 2.0.6*

This is a GREAT point and click game. Although a short tutorial would be helpful in getting started. The characters are nicely animated. I did encounter a GLITCH. Watch for it when the  mother walks to heater closet when "too cold."

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2017-05-09, version 2.0.6*

The text disappears halfway though. Very disappointed in this game. It was such a waste of money. I wish I had read reviews before downloading.

### 3/5 — You may only make it halfway thru this game

*2017-01-04, version 2.0.6*

Other reviews stating captions turn to Matrix gibberish are true. A shame, it's a really interesting story line.  I sent e-mail to developers asking about it, immediate reply stating "We'll get back to you", but nothing else for 3 weeks; maybe they're feverishly working on it. I tempted to hang onto it until they update/fix it, but time marches on ...

### 2/5 — Let me buy the rest of the game

*2016-11-04, version 2.0.6*

I would give it 5 stars if I could buy the rest of the game I loved the first chapter and wanted to play the rest but it won't let me

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — How do I purchase full game??

*2022-12-04, version 2.0.6*

Can’t download full game. I wanted to purchase it but the link inside the app doesn’t work. Also, app support just takes you to a website that literally has nothing at all to do with this game. Weird. I guess they don’t like money.

### 1/5 — Can’t buy full game

*2022-08-09, version 2.0.6*

Don’t even waste your time playing the beginning, the link to buy it doesn’t work and you can’t find the full game on the App Store to buy it. Really disappointing when it seems like a fun game.

### 1/5 — can’t continue

*2022-07-27, version 2.0.6*

the free trial was fine but the game won’t let me purchase any additional episodes 🤷‍♀️

### 1/5 — Should be 4star but gets 1star due to 6 yr old bug!

*2022-07-27, version 2.0.6*

This had potential to be very cute, fun game. Good premise, nice scenes, etc. but when I finish free chapter and try to click to buy…it doesn’t work.  Cannot et to buy no matter what u do!  What’s worse, the reviews describe this exact same bug with buying…over SIX YEARS AGO?!  Come on developers…you’re shooting yourselves in the foot!  How many sales must this bug have lost you…as well as being crazy annoying. No time in 6yrs to fix?!?.

### 1/5 — Broken game

*2018-07-22, version 2.0.6*

Attempt #1 - flashlight “used” both batteries and I was unable to fix the diorama, had to start a new game. Attempt #2 - changed the temperature of the fireplace and rather than fixing the temp, the mother sits Indian style in front of the closet floating in the air and I was unable to progress. Unplayable game, waste of money and time.

### 1/5 — Been waiting years. Listen to reviewers!!

*2017-11-26, version 2.0.6*

Every now n then, I re-download n play the free part allllll over again, just to get to the continue screen where u can purchase the other two chapters individually or both for 25% off. Do u guys even READ THE COMMENTS? I know it’s an old game, but it’s not like u have much else in the App Store by IF games, so you’d THINK u wanna give a good impression of your company to the ppl who ACTUALLY ARE TRYING TO BUY THE REST OF THE GAME OFF OF YOU. This despite those who were ‘lucky’ enuff to be able to do so, stating in the reviews that after purchase chapters had some serious glitches that make it impossible to even finish. Think about that. YOU HAVE HAD SO MANY PPL WILLING TO PAY $5 FOR A CHANCE TO ROLL THE DIE, WITH HORRIBLE ODDS AGAINST THEM TO NOT END UP HITTING ONE OF THE GAME ENDING GLITCHES ALONG THE WAY, N LOSING OUT THAT $5 !!!

Again...ALL THE GAME DOES IS MAKE A CLICKING SOUND WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO PURCHASE THE REST. Considering the number of reviewers who’ve asked you to PLEASE FIX IT SO WE CAN BUY IT FOR OVER A YEAR NOW...think of how many others also could not, but saw it was expressed over n over in the comments, so they simply didn’t feel any need to bother leaving a review just to reiterate a problem they figure you’re well aware of...BUT DONT EVEN SEEM TO CARE ANYWAY!!!

I know I personally have continued to think “Why bother, when it’s been clearly stated so many times already!?” The ONLY REASON I FINALLY AM AFTER LIKE LITERALLY 2 YRS, is because I really do keep replaying in hopes “this time” when I get to end of the free part, I’ll be one of the ‘lucky’ ones to at least be able to click to purchase a glitch-filled game I likely can’t finish, but am willing to toss $5 to at least try and see!!!!

So, if you’ve ABANDONED FIXING THE ISSUE, then remove Perils of Man completely from the App Store!!!!!! There’s already tons of games in the store that are unplayable. Why are you adding to it, by giving ppl a free teaser, then not even LETTING PPL BUY THE REST??? Usually ppl take issue with HIDDEN FEES N IAP’s, n only partial games when they’re ‘free.’

YOU GUYS HAVE PPL ASKING YOU TO FIX SOMETHING, SO THEY CAN LITERALLY THROW YOU MORE $$$$$ THAN THE EXTRA WAY OVERPRICED CHAPTERS VALUE, yet you’re all seriously THAT LAZY N UNCONCERNED ABOUT CUSTOMERS WHO WOULD LIKE TO DO BUSINESS WITH YOU?!
It’s absurd!!

I guess you don’t need the money, so I expect if you DO EVER PUT ANY MORE GAMES IN THE APP STORE, WHICH SEEMS UNLIKELY SINCE ITS BEEN YEEEARS, I EXPECT THAT YOU MAKE THE FULL VERSION TOTALLY FREE. NO FREE TEASER PART, just ALL FREE. One, cuz you don’t need the money, and two, becuz you abandoned everyone who played this game to ever seeing/playing thru to find out what happens. And three, because ppl SHOULD be leery of throwing their money to ANY COMPANY WHO DOESNT VALUE THEIR CUSTOMERS, and to make up for NEVER ALLOWING PPL TO FINISH THIS ONE.

FIX IT ALREADY OR REMOVE IT FROM THE STORE ALTOGETHER, PLEASE. BUT PLZ DONT LEAVE IT THERE IN ITS CURRENT STATE!!!!

### 1/5 — My review!

*2017-10-20, version 2.0.6*

Same here, I can not buy the rest of the game, just a clicking noice as the previous comment!

### 1/5 — Disappointed glitches

*2017-03-15, version 2.0.6*

The game is great but I purchased the full version and now it won't let me get past a certain point. It's not allowing me to do things I know I'm supposed to not sure if it's a glitch I've restarted and made new games and nothing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled but now it wants me to make the same $5.99 purchase again so I've essentially wasted my money on this game.

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2016-09-10, version 2.0.6*

I love the concept of this game. The parts of the game that were playable were great. However, at a certain point the sounds and subtitles turn to complete nonsense or just stop functioning all together which makes gameplay almost impossible. For what a paid app this is upsetting.

### 1/5 — Crashes...

*2016-08-20, version 2.0.6*

After I downloaded, I opened the app and started my game. That's when it crashed. Every. Single. Time. It cannot load the starting game so it crashes immediately. How disappointing. I just uninstalled the game. Fix it...

### 5/5 — Enjoyed the start

*2021-11-14, version 2.0.6*

Some glitches and rough edges mentioned in other reviews, yes, but none that truly impacted the function or flow of the game for me. The trial is substantial, including full high quality voice acting, gorgeous 3D graphics, and overall far more than I’d expect from a mobile game created several years ago (2015-ish, I believe). The 1.5gb of free content gives an ample demonstration of narrative, gameplay, aesthetic style, etc. this game offers, and I wanted to continue exploring it in the full version.

My only suggestion is to consider adjusting the price slightly for the full game. I hesitated to say that, given the investment of time/effort/resources needed to produce the product and how difficult the market is for this genre. At the time the game was released, I’d have considered its price a great bargain. If it’d had attempts to polish the minor glitches, or any maintenance updates in the past few years, I likely wouldn’t mention cost. However, after so long without attention, it’s fair to say the developers have moved on from this app; it is offered “as is.” So perhaps the price ought to come down a touch to reflect that. Just a thought.

That said, I strongly recommend the game. Even after years, it holds up favorably among its peers. All fans of classic point and click adventures should be glad when a game of this caliber is made, and show as much support as we’re able to.

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2020-09-14, version 2.0.6*

I bought the full version which is a great decision,the storyline and graphics is great and it actually made me cry a little at the end.....it really makes you think

### 5/5 — Totally recommend

*2020-08-22, version 2.0.6*

I mean wow 🤩 it’s amazing 
 awesome storyline 
Amazing British accent

### 5/5 — Wish it was longer, but amazing overall.

*2020-08-10, version 2.0.6*

I absolutely loved the game, however it seemed as if chapter 2-3 were a bit rushed... I wish there was more storyline but i’m pretty sure the game only had 25,000 to work with so they did a great job with what they were given. I’m seeing reviews that say its buggy but I had no problems with that. Maybe it’s just because I used a tablet. If you like point and click adventure games (that can also be played on mobile) then this is for you. You might be disappointed by how short/rushed it was.

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2018-09-03, version 2.0.6*

Very fun! I love the voices and storyline. There was lots of things to click on and I didn’t need a walkthrough!

### 5/5 — Really a great game!

*2017-10-01, version 2.0.6*

This is really a wonderful game. It's a bit slow and kind of confusing at first about what you are trying to ultimately accomplish but the story opens up into a very well thought out game play mechanic for 3D puzzle solving. 

I found myself quite said when it ended and wished that the story had several more chapters.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2016-11-13, version 2.0.6*

Amazing

### 5/5 — 👍🏼Worked PERFECT on my iPhone 6s

*2016-07-19, version 2.0.6*

Just Finished game! Loved it!
Not sure what errors people had.,... works great on iPhone 6s. Maybe they need to update iOS. 
I was sad it was over 😐 Should be longer for price 
PLEASE MAKE MORE POINT & CLICK GAMES ❤️

### 5/5 — Fascinating!

*2016-03-26, version 2.0.6*

It was a little slow to start, but when she got into the next chapters, it was very hard to put it down. I really hope there becomes a part two to the series. I would definitely pay to play again. Well done!

### 5/5 — Awesome adventure game!

*2016-01-26, version 2.0.6*

It's the best game I played in a long, long time: it offers striking 3D animations, most challenging puzzles, a captivating story and fantastic sound. Congrats to IF GAMES for an amazing premiere. A most visceral, gripping and totally engaging  adventure game for the family.
