The Golden Idol Returns: Netflix Unveils 'The Rise of the Golden Idol'

The iconic Golden Idol from the 18th century is back, but this time, it's the 1970s! Netflix has released "The Rise of the Golden Idol," a sequel to "The Case of the Golden Idol," unexpectedly sooner than anticipated. This new installment trades the 1700s setting for the groovy era of disco, bell-bottoms, and nascent fax machine technology.

What's the Story?

Three centuries after the original Cloudsley family saga, the Golden Idol's legend persists, albeit as whispers and myths. A diverse group, including relic hunters, cultists, and scientists, seeks to unearth this powerful artifact. Players assume the role of an investigator, piecing together strange occurrences linked to the long-lost relic.

The game presents 20 cases, ranging from unsettling to supernatural. Players must analyze evidence, identify culprits, and uncover their motives. Expect a colorful cast of suspects: suspicious prisoners, eccentric television personalities, and corporate figures harboring secrets.

A Netflix Exclusive?

Developed by Color Gray Games and Playstack, and published by Netflix, "The Rise of the Golden Idol" is available on Android, mirroring its predecessor. Netflix subscribers can access the game at no extra cost via the Google Play Store.
