Pussel och spelupplägg
The Rise of the Golden Idol expands on the puzzle-solving mechanics that made the first game a hit. With a collection of scenarios that require players to piece together visual and textual clues, the game offers a challenging yet rewarding experience. However, some players have noted that the puzzles in Rise are less complex and challenging compared to those in The Case of the Golden Idol. The game’s structure, which requires players to flip between completed scenarios to understand the overarching story, is a unique approach that adds depth to the gameplay. Läs mer om spelet

Berättelse och atmosfär
The narrative of The Rise of the Golden Idol is engaging, with a storyline that unfolds as players progress through the cases. While the game attempts to capture the eerie tone of the original, some players feel that it falls short in terms of atmosphere and character development. The lack of a cohesive “dystopian 70’s corporate America” aesthetic, which was hoped to inform the game’s atmosphere and design, is noted as a missed opportunity. Upptäck mer om berättelsen

However, some players find the new giant word list and static scenario pop-outs overwhelming and clunky, detracting from the overall experience. The game’s UI, while functional, may not be as polished and cohesive as that of its predecessor. Läs mer om förbättringar av användargränssnittet
