by Nova May 17,2025

The eagerly awaited DLC for Rise of the Golden Idol, titled The Lemurian Phoenix, is set to launch on May 13th. This expansive addition brings a thrilling five-chapter storyline, delving into a saga ignited by a murder in 1910 and unfolding over the decades. The narrative weaves together themes of cursed treasures and ancient civilizations with contemporary mysteries and murders, making it a compelling continuation of the beloved sequel to Case of the Golden Idol.

Rise of the Golden Idol offers a unique take on the murder mystery genre within a point-and-click adventure framework. Players explore scenes to gather keywords that piece together the who, what, and why of each case. However, the game's complexity lies in its blend of human motives and ancient tech, ensuring that each mystery is as unpredictable as it is engaging. Expect nothing less than grisly murders and intricate puzzles where everyone is a suspect.
