Rise of the Golden Idol's first DLC, The Sin of New Wells, arrives March 4th! Embark on a new investigation as Detective Roy Samson, a fresh transfer to the gritty 9th district, tackles gruesome murders with a supernatural twist.

The Golden Idol series has evolved from historical mysteries to a modern-day crime thriller. Rise of the Golden Idol, available on PC and Netflix Games (mobile), sets the stage for this new chapter. Detective Samson, partnered with Cliff Savea, must unravel a series of brutal killings possibly involving Lemurian magic.

The series' unique puzzle mechanics require players to connect words and concepts to build theories and solve the case. Examining crime scenes provides clues that are pieced together to form a narrative.

The Golden Idol's innovative puzzle mechanics are a refreshing take on the point-and-click genre. The rich lore, however, might pose a challenge for some players. Nevertheless, this popular point-and-click adventure is a strong addition to Netflix Games' library.
