    Oh, I somehow missed that Lunarch (previously of MMO puzzler turned solo game Islands Of Insight) launched a new puzzle game a couple weeks ago, and folks seem to really like it? Narrower in scope, but good to see them not giving up on their puzzle aspirations.

    I've been playing an open-world puzzle game called Islands of Insight lately, and it apparently didn't do as well as the devs had hoped, and they're having to abandon plans for continuing development, which is a shame. It's complete as is, and if you like puzzle games, you should give it a look.

    1. I was an Islands of Insight sicko, regardless of my work on it, so I was ecstatic see that Lunarch is making another puzzle game.

    I'm playing Islands of Insight at the moment and it has made me realise that oversaturation really is an almost insurmountable obstacle when it comes to making video games. You can make a game that is graphically gorgeous, mechanically unique and cleverly designed and stat stuck beneath notice.

    Things I like in a game: - open world exploring, unlockable abilities - no combat, or optional - puzzles that are easy to learn the rules, but have tricky solutions - no timers or very few if included That said, is Islands of Insight perhaps perfect for me? 4 hours with the demo makes me think yes.

    Islands of Insight (from Lunarch Studios): This game was a good attempt on mixing Puzzle/MMO, but it got a bad start with not enough people and some missing ideas to merge it all together (coop/versus puzzles, hint system to find puzzles like the Krapht parser).

    @danielholt This was way harder than I expected it to be, and that's with the fact that I keep really excellent track of what I've played. I'm not including Against the Storm, because I would have called that one of my favorites of 2023, so even though I played it this year as well, I thought I'd give someone else a chance. #Palworld #IslandsOfInsight #Crashlands #Reus2 So: Palworld, Islands of Insight, Crashlands, and Reus 2.
