Um ótimo jogo pra qualquer um que goste de investigação.

Aqui, você será jogado em uma cena e deve coletar pistas e desvendar os ocorridos que precederam aquela situação.

A narrativa geral de Golden Idol é dividida em pequenas fases que no final se completam.

Pode não ser um jogo para todos, mas é ótimo tanto para quem gosta de jogos para pensar, tanto para quem quer jogar algo fora da sua zona de conforto

Loved it so much I finished it in two days.
Clearly influenced by Obra Dinn, but with its own character. Visuals are surprisingly charming and the ost is very nice. The story is legit great spanning many years. Each case is fantastic, some more complex than others, but all equally entertaining. If you like detective games this is one of the goats.

PSA: The Switch version has a bug where the game resets your progress when you exit it! It doesn't happen to everyone, but it did happen to me. Ridiculous that it's still unpatched.

Basically fine. Enjoyed a majority of my time with it and really enjoyed a few of the scenarios but I would often reach a point where I had ALMOST everything filled out, and knew the gist of what occurred, but there was one little ancillary mystery that I didn't have all the details of pinned down, so I couldn't finish the level. And at that point I'd already looked at everything and really didn't want to go over it all again with a fine-toothed comb to pick out the one or two extra little details that I'm Just Not Seeing that would let me finish.

So what often happened is I'd get like 85-90% of the way through finishing a level and decide "alright, I've spent enough of my life looking at this" and look up the final thing or two.

Basically, I was often sick of what the game was asking me to do before it was done asking me to do it. There was one party scene and one of the paragraphs you have to fill out was like "blank and blank went to blank to blank and ran into blank and blank before going to blank and seeing blank" and I was pretty sure that could describe about four things that happened and I didn't even try to fill it out, I just looked it up.

And the last scenario where you have to put the events in order? It was not interesting to me to figure out which of these largely independent events occurred at 7:30 and which occurred at 7:35. It doesn't matter, and I'm not going to sit here for an extra fifteen minutes trying to figure it out. I'll just guess.

Wonderful little deductive reasoning puzzler. Starts simple with basic "who killed who with what" but unfolds with increasing complexity as the game goes. By the halfway point I entered each scene thinking "this one might finally be too much for me", but always surmounted the obstacles in the end. That's the sign of a great puzzle game—one that always makes you feel like it's going just beyond your reach and then making you feel incredibly accomplished when you beat it.

Beautiful, oddball art and a compelling narrative tie these puzzles together as you trace the Golden Idol through multiple generations of warring factions.

With this and Obra-Dinn, I'm hoping this little genre booms in the indie scene immediately.
