Netflix Drops The Rise of the Golden Idol, Set 300 Years After The Prequel

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

The iconic Golden Idol, famed from the 18th-century mystery, is back! Netflix has unexpectedly released The Rise of the Golden Idol, the sequel to The Case of the Golden Idol. This time, however, we're transported to the groovy 1970s, three centuries after the prequel's events. Think disco, bell-bottoms, and the nascent days of fax machines.

What's the Story?

Three hundred years after the Cloudsley family saga captivated audiences, the legend of the Golden Idol persists, albeit as whispers and myths. This resurgence attracts a diverse cast of characters: relic hunters, cultists seeking enlightenment, and a team of scientists, all eager to uncover the idol's secrets. Players assume the role of an investigator, tasked with unraveling a series of bizarre occurrences linked to the long-lost artifact.

The game features 20 cases, ranging from unsettling realism to supernatural elements. Players must meticulously examine evidence, identify perpetrators, and uncover their motives. Expect a colorful cast of suspects, from suspicious prisoners and eccentric talk show hosts to corporate figures harboring dark secrets.
