Yes, it's a decent sized open world and the puzzle types are repeated a lot. I'd say the main puzzle type is a grid based puzzle that you fill in with black and white square but the grid puzzles come in different variations with a variation of rules.
I'd say there are about 15 puzzle types, each repeated hundreds of times throughout the world a few having variations. There are logic puzzles like the grid based game, speed puzzles like glass mazes and visual/hidden objects puzzles.
Definitely not a game for everybody and definitely not perfect (especially the skill tree/upgrades) but it's a shame they are using this as a platform to build from. Also the name 'Islands of Insight' sucks  ;D
I don't mind the name. It's at least better than superland or whatever that game is.

Wow 90 hours? And this is a puzzle game?

Some people are bothered by YouTube's new UI.

I'm more bothered by the playlists not showing you the first video they're going to show.
I think I'm on an older version of youtube but yes every update always makes it worse

Without the twitter replies I wouldn't have any clue what the joke was.

It sucks that the developers of Islands of Insight have given up on it. It wasn't perfect but absolutely loved the concept, a concept which probably won't be done again by anybody and a slim to no chance the developers reverse their decision to right Islands of Insight off and develop this game into something special.

Did the developers right this game off to early?  They literally gave up on it a month into launch. A huge project that took years to make just abandoned. It's set up like a live service game so it's not like it's dead in the water. Live service game can take a while to build up users and with constant updates you can improve the game, bring in new player while keeping existing players engaged.  
This game had so much potential!
Still playing it. About 90 hours in and still stuff I want to do.
Wow 90 hours? And this is a puzzle game?

Woops.

Would have loved a new game. Dead Space 2 is the only one I've played but it was great.
