Optimization Tips

Perils of Man is a point-and-click adventure with stylized graphics; performance is largely CPU-bound in modern systems due to engine limitations.
Cap the frame rate to your monitor's refresh rate to prevent unnecessary GPU load.
Ensure the game is running on a dedicated GPU if using a laptop with integrated graphics.
Disable V-Sync in-game and use driver-level Fast Sync if you experience input lag.
Run the game in borderless windowed mode if you encounter alt-tabbing stability issues.
