Hi! I’m Elyot Grant ([u/elyot](https://www.reddit.com/user/Elyot/)), the game director of Islands of Insight, and I’m taking over the Islands of Insight account to talk to you about our brand new game. My team and I at Lunarch Studios have been building an ambitious shared world puzzle game for the past few years and now it’s finally out!
We aimed big for this game, bringing in dozens of the best puzzle designers we could find, and creating a world you could only describe as “sublime,” and THEN filling it to the brim with puzzles and secrets to discover. If you’re curious – check out our game and let us know what you think. – [Steam Link](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2071500/Islands_of_Insight/)
I’m here to see what you want to know about this game, the puzzles, the world, whatever part of Islands of Insight you want to talk about.
AMA!
Proof!

Do you plan on making this offline/single player? That’s the only thing holding me back from buying
I love live service games
I’d be interested in this if I could play it offline on my Steam Deck.
Wait, wasn’t the biggest puzzle game „please love my computer game“?
Interesting concept and I wish you the best of luck but personally I am exhausted by unnecessary multiplayer games.
A puzzle game is something I would want to enjoy in solitude, not surrounded by other people in a shared multiplayer world.
Never heard of the game until this post so decided to look it up and now I have a question, is it just an Immortals Fenix Rising clone or is there something that sets it apart from that game ?
Once there is an offline single player mode I will buy it.
So it’s multiplayer only? Not really my cup of tea, guess I’ll be giving it a pass. Best of luck though!
Is there an ETA of when the save file issue will be fixed? I have the game and want to play it but my save has been bugged since the demo and I can’t progress.
I enjoyed the demo but my PC is old and doesn’t run it very well. Any chance it’s coming to consoles? I have both.
Hey! Sorry everyone in the comments here is a fuckin doofus, I don’t think this type of game has ever been done before. Very cool ideas. I hope it makes it to other systems and you keep making games!
I love puzzle games, so this is the most I’ve been excited about a game in awhile. I played the demo for a good bit, and on the live version I’m level 22!
I had a question about the more difficult “star” (I guess after checking, they are more technically stellated dodecahedron) puzzles, since I’ve been able to finish a few at this point, but most of the time I just think “wellll I’ll come back to this later” (in a good way). I know many regular puzzles are spawned in regularly in the general areas outside of the quests and themed zones, but are these star puzzles also spawned in (and therefore eventually disappear?) or are these fixed in their locations? And will there ever be a way to track how many of these types of difficult puzzles we have finished?
Thanks for the great game!
Looks nice, I’d probably go for it if I could do offline single-player
Why did you decide on a multiplayer only format?
Multiplayer only? I’m good lil bro good luck with this dog shit though
I love the concept of this game and have enjoyed seeing it streamed. Unfortunately, my only way to PC game right now is via my Steam Deck, and I can’t do anything to get it to work. It also seems like this game hogs monster resources. Are you planning (1) to support the Steam Deck or consoles in the future and (2) have any plans to figure out how to get the minimum requirements down?
