History
Game Insight was founded in 2009 in Moscow . In the same year, the company launched its first Resort World game, for social networks VKontakte and Facebook ; it was later ported to mobile platforms. The Paradise Island for Android has been in the top games on Google Play for more than 26 consecutive weeks. [four]
In 2012, Game Insight opened an office in San Francisco (USA) [5] . In late 2012 - early 2013 new company offices appeared in St. Petersburg and Novosibirsk . An additional office in St. Petersburg was opened at the end of 2012 in order to strengthen the company's presence in the northwestern region [6] .
In April 2014, Game Insight closed an American office in San Francisco, where eight people worked, and on May 29 moved its headquarters to Vilnius (Lithuania) in order to “strengthen its position as a global company, as well as strengthen its presence in Europe as one of key markets. ” [7]
- Alisa Chumachenko (company founder) on the need to open new offices:
Successful games are born in independent studios that have their own drive, their own energy. We always paid attention to this and understood the importance of preserving the unique features of each team. After all, the only way you can get a high-quality game, which will not only be performed at the required technical level, but also created with the soul. Despite this, we feel the need for additional resources that will help us with ongoing projects and will serve as an additional guarantee when developing high-level projects.
