The Case of the Golden Idol Review
Posted: 4 months ago, last updated 2 weeks ago.
Author: @GeekDadGamer and Jo Robertson.
Overview
You play in either Thinking (putting words together) and Exploring (collecting words). This means you can investigate more freely to solve each of the deaths. You then pick your suspect, identify the weapon, deduce the motive and unmask the awful truth.
As you progress, you start to use clues from different chapters to not only solve the individual murders but uncover how the events are connected. Soon you are working to reveal the true killers in the vast narrative by discovering their motives.
The result is a game about observation, interpretation and reconstruction of events. As you follow the journey of this cursed aristocratic family you untangle a web of deceit and villainy.
