History
The members of Incan Monkey God Studios were originally an in-house publications group at Origin Systems working on immersive manuals.

In 1997, Origin Systems which had been acquired by Electronic Arts was trying to trim the headcount and was moving the documentation to California. The team decided to leave Origin together rather than get split up, which is how the Incan Monkey God Studios was formed.

This was also when Ultima Online and Everquest were starting to make it big. The group had experience with writing for the mmo scene with Ultima Online and with writing manuals written for Origin Systems but published by Prima Games. When the group went independant they maintained their connection with Prima. Thus Incan Monkey God Studio was making all their mmo guides, which got them into Everquest, Everquest 2, Dark Age of Camelot, Star Wars Galaxies, Guild Wars, Lineage 2, Matrix.
