Description

NETFLIX MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED. The Idol was lost — but not forgotten. Collect crime-scene clues to piece together shocking truths in this standalone sequel to the award-winning mystery game "The Case of the Golden Idol." Three hundred years after the unspeakable fate of the Cloudsley family, the Golden Idol's legend lives on only in whispers and myth. But now, in the tumultuous times of the 1970s, some are determined to see the Idol restored to its former glory. Discover the mysterious forces connecting a relentless relic hunter, a team of scientists, the members of an enlightenment-seeking cult and more characters drawn to the all-powerful artifact. As the observer in this point-and-click mystery game, you must investigate 20 strange — and possibly supernatural — cases of crime, death and depravity. Use your detective skills to make sense of a grand mystery that unfolds across an age of hallucinogens, disco, fax machines and parapsychology. LEAD YOUR OWN INVESTIGATION Explore each crime scene at your own pace, using observation and logic to build theories of the case. Click to collect clues and analyze each discovery to determine what happened, why, and who was responsible. A CURIOUS CAST OF CHARACTERS Convicted prisoners, chat show hosts, corporate middle management and many more figures have a role to play in the wider mystery that unfolds — each driven by their own agenda, and some driven to murder. Scour each scene for key details, put names to faces and deduce each person's motives. SMOOTHER SLEUTHING AND SOLVING A new interface lets you quickly collect key terms from each crime scene and seamlessly toggle between investigating and theorizing. Make connections to fill in the blanks of the story for each case, and then piece together every chapter's overarching narrative. - Created by Color Gray Games and Playstack.

    Loved the sequel but game isn’t super polished, test containing important info is misaligned and on the boat you get a name out of nowhere. It was also so annoying not knowing what order the scenarios are in because they unlock out of order

    I’m having the same issue as most people. I was in the middle of doing the pictures with the pins then the game crashed. Now the tvs are blank and won’t let me proceed.

    It was u fortunate because I was enjoying the puzzles but then by chapter two it hugged while I was in the process did completely it. Logging out and coming back in does not help as only one of the chapters then displays.
  • Chapter 2 Bug Ruined My Experience

    I usually never get super into games but this game was awesome, I was NEARLY finished with the end of chapter 2 and I’m then hit with a game breaking bug that caused the television screens to completely go blank despite me spending hours solving the puzzles to finally finish off this chapter. Despite retaining all my achievements in the game, I can’t even move forward with finishing the game because it’s broken and restarting the app won’t even work. MAJOR bummer for a potentially great game, I hope they fix this bug! :(

    I loved it like the loved the other game but it glitched on me. I could see my completed pages on the TV but I wasn’t able to do anything. All my little clues disappeared.
  • Chapter 2 Bug

    I’m experiencing the same bug as everyone else where at the end of chapter 2 progress completely restarts for some reason and the only accessible tv is the garden one. I can’t even redo it because, while all the words are found and filled it, the game considers the part to finish the chapter locked for some reason. No one else can progress after Chapter 2

    1) This had no issues with bugs. 2) This game, along with Case of the Golden Idol, are so good that giving it 5 stars isn’t enough, I have to go back and rate other games slightly worse. Very impressed with how much planning and mapping out the story this game must have taken
  • Just a bit buggy but amazing game!!!

    Had an amazing time finishing the game! The story’s interesting and gameplay’s super engaging. One of those “hidden gems” in detective/deductive game play. The art’s great as always 🫶 I encountered a few bugs throughout but not to the point of deleting or resetting my progress. Sometimes, the numbered buttons to flip through the word collection would disappear, but they reappear after I exit out of the word matching puzzle and click on it again. A quick 5s fix for a super engaging part 2!
  • Amazing, but buggy

    I really enjoyed this game, the gameplay mechanics are really interesting and unique, the story is captivating, and the graphics are really fun. The only issue is the bug I encountered in chapter two, it made the game completely unplayable, which was really disappointing because this game is so well made! Leaving this review with hopes it might be fixed and praise for the devs for this great game!

    I was really enjoying the game but cannot continue it because of the same reasons as the other. My review would go up a lot after these bugs are fixed
