Rise of Golden Idol Debuts on Netflix, Set Centuries Post Prequel

The Golden Idol Returns: Netflix Releases "The Rise of the Golden Idol"

The iconic Golden Idol from the 18th-century mystery is back, but this time, it's 1970s. Netflix has just released The Rise of the Golden Idol, a sequel to The Case of the Golden Idol. 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 legend of the Golden Idol persists, albeit as whispers and myths. The game features a cast of intriguing characters eager to unearth the relic, including relic hunters, cultists, and scientists. Players, in the role of an investigator, must unravel a series of bizarre events linked to the long-lost artifact.

The Rise of the Golden Idol presents 20 cases, ranging from unsettling to supernatural. Players must analyze evidence, identify culprits, and uncover their motives. Expect a diverse range of suspects, from suspicious prisoners and eccentric talk show hosts to secretive corporate figures.

Developed by Color Gray Games and Playstack, and published by Netflix, The Rise of the Golden Idol is available on Android, just like its predecessor. Netflix subscribers can enjoy this new mystery for free via the Google Play Store.
