The Case of the Golden Idol

I had to stop by to review this Collection before I finished the last Chapter that’s currently available. Love, love, love this! I’m amazed at how perfectly the difficulty is scaling up: Doable without hints, but one is not just zipping through these scenes without some careful thought! As others have said, not initially my favorite graphics style, but, oddly, it has kind if grown on me as I’ve played. . . . I have had a few issues moving between Chapters, but these always resolved when I closed and reopened the game. Totally worth the purchase price! Let’s come up with some more quirky characters, please! Can’t wait to investigate the next mystery!

I rarely write reviews on the App Store, but this is for my favorite game. I played The Rise of the Golden Idol on Netflix and fell in love with it. Unfortunately, it was unavailable in my region after I had finished half the game (I cannot find it anywhere else on mobile). Then after a long time, this masterpiece was released and I immediately purchased it and it was worth every penny. It is very smart that the way the hints are placed and the backstory all link together. Solvable but also hard enough to keep me playing and find out the secrets behind. I really hope that The Rise of the Golden Idol and its DLCs could be downloaded on the App Store soon because it is very convenient to play on a phone. Love this franchise so much.

I am so glad that there is now a standalone version of this app. I played through when it was on Netflix games and missed being able to step back in when it left that service. The graphics have a distinctive style that I don’t totally love but they work and oddly fit the narrative. Some of the deduction puzzles are very difficult and I only. Passed by trying a few things but I remember being frustrated very infrequently. The answers actually make sense and you do get the information needed to solve everything. Great on mobile because you can pick it up and put it down quickly or take time with it.
