The excitement is building as the newest DLC for Rise of the Golden Idol, titled The Lemurian Phoenix, is set to launch on May 13th. This expansive addition brings five new chapters to the game, diving deep into a narrative that spans decades, all triggered by a single murder in 1910. With themes of cursed treasure and ancient civilizations intertwined with modern-day mysteries and murders, it's clear why Rise of the Golden Idol, the sequel to the acclaimed Case of the Golden Idol, has captured the hearts of players worldwide.
For those new to the game, Rise of the Golden Idol redefines the murder mystery genre within the point-and-click adventure format. Players are tasked with exploring scenes, uncovering keywords, and piecing them together to solve the who, what, and why of each case. However, the game's blend of human motives with ancient technology ensures that each mystery is as unpredictable as it is engaging, filled with grisly murders and intriguing puzzles where anyone could be the culprit.
While developer Color Gray Games keeps the details of The Lemurian Phoenix under wraps, they've tantalized fans with a cryptogram revealing the titles of the five new chapters: Eternity's End, Ascension, Royal Blood, Revelation, and A Blaze of Glory. These titles hint at themes of religious fervor, charismatic gurus, and intense power struggles, setting the stage for another thrilling adventure. Players can look forward to purchasing The Lemurian Phoenix on May 13th, with the DLC being free for those with the Detective Pass or playing via Netflix Games.
