The Case of the Golden Idol is like a game designed and written by Agatha Christie about the desperate need of control and power inside all mankind. If you are familiar with any of her works you would know that you are in for a treat.
The game starts very simple; a scene in which a man pushes another from a cliff, and the game shows you how each and every mechanism works, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. For that's just the beginning of a chain of crimes; and to find the real truth about them you have to find many clues and use your "little grey cells" to put them together.
The beautifully pixelated story takes place in the 1700s and spans 4 decades. A chain of crimes that happen for the "Golden Idol" ; the thirst to be in control and have the ultimate power.
The Case of the Golden Idol was made by only a handful of people yet it gives the feeling of accomplishment more than many multi-million-dollar games. A must play if you like puzzle games, even the slightest.
