About
This game is a new kind of detective experience that lets you think and investigate freely. You can discover clues surrounding twelve strange and gruesome deaths and build your own theory about what happened. The Case of the Golden Idol allows you to pick your suspect, deduce their motive, and unmask the awful truth behind these murders. Step into the shoes of an 18th-century detective and uncover the mystery behind twelve strange deaths spanning fifty years. All of these deaths are somehow connected. Unmask the true killers in this sprawling narrative and discover their devious motives. Observe closely and reconstruct each scene of death. Your skills of deduction can identify each suspect, motive, and murder weapon. The main story takes approximately six hours to complete. If you include extra content, the playtime increases to seven hours. A completionist playthrough will take around seven hours. The Case of the Golden Idol is an indie game developed by Color Gray Games and published by Playstack. It features single-player gameplay and controller support.

The Case of the Golden Idol Critic Reviews and Review Scores

A challenging and inventive set of mysteries to solve tied together with a brilliant storyline.
EurogamerAlexis Ong
Witty, observationalist writing and a hands-off approach to deduction elevate this excellent period murder-mystery to a singular work.
