Zurich, Switzerland \u2013 August 15, 2013 \u2013<\/b> Former boutiq animation team plunges into the games industry with IF Games -\u2013 a new game studio with a passion for storytelling and cinematic appeal\u2014and joins hands with ex-LucasArts game designer Bill Tiller to develop their debut title Perils of Man<\/i>; a serialized adventure game to be released on iPad in October this year. The announcement trailer for Perils of Man: Episode 1<\/i> was first unveiled today.<\/p>\n

Perils of Man<\/i> is an adventure game for inquisitive teens, to be released in two parts; each with an ambitious two to three hours of gameplay. \u201cWe needed to create an original story that would set the mood throughout the game,\u201d producer Nathan Ornick clarifies. By bringing veteran game designer Bill Tiller together with Hollywood screenwriter Stephen Beckner, and Perils\u2019 creative director Michael Huber, the team developed a sweeping, multi-generational saga. The result is a captivating story centered around a teenage girl who is thrown into a hidden world of time-travel, global catastrophe and personal triumph when she uncovers a lost technology with the potential to eliminate all the uncertainties of life.<\/p>\n

The first trailer for Perils of Man: Episode 1<\/i>, which can be found on the Perils of Man<\/i> Facebook page (https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/theperilsofman<\/a>) gives a taste of the fascinating adventure IF Games has cooked up for you.<\/p>\n

Perils of Man<\/i> is the first release from the brand new game studio IF Games. \u201cFor our debut game, we decided on the adventure genre,\u201d explains boutiq and IF Games co-founder Huber, \u201c\u2013 games that remind us of the ones we played when growing up ourselves.\u201d IF Games co-founder Nathan Ornick would go on to contract ex-LucasArts game designer Bill Tiller, who has collaborated on a range of hit adventure games such as The Dig<\/i>, The Curse of Monkey Island<\/i> and Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine<\/i>. \u201cFrom the start, we decided to work with Bill Tiller, who eventually became the mentor of this insanely ambitious project and our dedicated team of key contributors that includes Gene Mocsy (additional Game Design) and Dave Neale (Art Director),” Ornick explains.<\/p>\n

Perils of Man<\/i> is the result of a unique team of collaborators combining boutiq\u2019s technical expertise with a ferocious dedication to detail. “We look forward to future projects and apply all the things we’ve learned on this journey to our newly founded game company IF Games,” states Philipp Z\u00fcnd, CEO of boutiq animation studio and IF Games co-founder.<\/p>\n

Perils of Man: Episode 1<\/i> is available starting October, 2013 on iPad (iOS 6 and up) and is distributed on iTunes, with the second episode to follow later in 2013.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
