About

The Idol was lost — but not forgotten. In this followup to the award winning detective game The Case of the Golden Idol, you are an observer that must investigate 20 strange cases of crime, death and depravity - all somehow connected. Use your detective skills to make sense of a grand mystery that unfolds across an age of hallucinogens, disco, fax machines and parapsychology.

Two hundred years after the unspeakable fate of the Cloudsley family, the Idol's legend lives on only in whispers and myth… but some are determined for this to change. Discover the mysterious forces connecting a tenacious treasure hunter, a team of scientists, the members of an enlightenment-seeking cult and corporate profiteers drawn to the all-powerful artifact.

The Rise of the Golden Idol is a new type of detective game where you freely explore each crime scene at your own pace, using logic to build your own theories. Click to collect clues and analyze each discovery to determine what happened, why, and who was responsible.

Convicted prisoners, new age cult leaders, corporate middle management and many more figures have a role to play in the wider mystery that unfolds — each driven by their own agenda. Scour each scene for key details to put names to faces and deduce their motives.

A reworked interface lets you quickly gather key terms from observations and witness testimonies, greatly expanding the depth and variety of each scenario. Upon the conclusion of each chapter, a new type of puzzle lets you revisit past deductions, recap the events of these interconnected cases, and investigate the threads that unify them.

有了民间汉化之后有了质的飞升,打了dlc。但是还是会出现【寻找】和【寻得】这种微妙的区别,以及nothing这个词翻译成无物的情况。只能说真的很难翻译…… 繁中翻译就是一坨。除去翻译我愿意给满分。
不算上DLC只能给到85分,加上DLC可以给到98分,2分扣给翻译。 相对于前作迷题难度和形式大幅增加,但与此相对中文翻译的问题也更加明显,很多地方翻译会让你卡上很久,但依旧瑕不掩瑜,剧情上的设计和迷题的质量依旧上乘,初看难度不小但只要静下心来思考就会发现线索提示其实给的很足,就开谜题是的成就感也是无可比拟的。DLC更是将剧情延升,世界观补完,还给了1代部分角色补充了一点小小的后日谈,这种小情怀也是让人很有好感的。
전작보다 콘텐츠는 더 많아진 후속작 게임은 재미있으나 여전히 번역으로 인해 추리하기가 힘든 점도 있다 또 하나 아쉬운 점이라면 전작보다 이미 풀었던 스테이지로 이동하는게 느려져서 아쉽다
had so much fun playing this game, the individual cases and overarching story are all so good!
I heard about the game on Escape this Podcast, and I bought it blind. There is a lot to like in this game - the writing is fantastic, and the art style is very evocative and intriguing. The part that killed my interest is the actual gameplay - extremely tedious to drag/click on the same few things on the screen. The game severely needs some QoL improvement, some sort of shortcut or better command in the resolution screens.
A masterpiece. I played the golden idol series from the first game, and the creators outdid themselves with this one. A great twist of events. I am also glad they took what i thought was missing in the first game and made this one more unique.
