Islands of Insight | Countdown to PC Launch!

Hello Seekers,

A few weeks ago, we announced that Islands of Insight is releasing on Steam in February. We're pretty excited around here and with February around the corner, we decided to get our countdown started by releasing our Milestone Rewards Program.

On Steam, the more wishlists you have, the easier it is for more Seekers to find their way to our sublime landscapes, brimming with puzzles to solve. So we've set up wishlist targets, and for each target reached we will be giving exciting gifts to all of you, Seekers!

To participate is very simple:

  • Head to our Steam page and click on the green "Add to your Wishlist" button. That's it!
  • Tell your friends to do the same. The more the merrier.


And what are these exciting gifts, you may ask -

  • +5,000 Wishlists: An AMA with Lunarch Studio’s founder and Game Director, Elyot Grant
  • If we get +5,000 wishlists before launch, Elyot Grant will hop on Reddit for a live AMA
  • +7,500 Wishlists: Special Edition Desktop Wallpapers
  • If we get +7,500 wishlists before launch, we will release 3 high quality wallpapers for desktop
  • +10,000 Wishlists: Exclusive Concept Art
  • if we get +10,000 before launch, we will share never before seen concept art from early stages of the project (or maybe upcoming content).


If we go above these targets, well we will have to come up with something even cooler!

Our Community team will keep updating you on our progress as we reach each wishlist target, so stay tuned on our social channels and wishlist away!

Islands of Insight | Year Retrospective

Hello Seekers,

As the sun rises on a new year, we have been reflecting on the adventures we’ve had and anticipating those on the horizon.

Thanks to you, 2023 was a year filled with our own Eureka moments! Here are the adventures you joined us on:

  • Our reveal in June at PC Gaming Show, where we announced our title, got to show off gameplay and so much more of the world
  • The Open Playtest in September, where thousands of you explored and solved on the Islands for the first time
  • Our recent PC Gaming show appearance, where we announced that IOI is coming in February – JUST A MONTH AWAY

And the support was amazing – in total, over 7.2 million puzzles were solved during these limited events!

Thank you all for making Islands of Insight a reality and be sure to stay tuned as we’ll have more coming later this month.

If you’re excited about the game, please support us by wishlisting! Each wishlist from you and your friends counts. We'll see you soon on the islands,

The IOI Team
