Rise of the Golden Idol's first DLC, The Sin of New Wells, arrives March 4th, bringing a new case and a new detective to the gritty world of the 9th district. Step into the shoes of Detective Roy Samson, a fresh transfer facing not only gruesome murders but a far more sinister threat.
The Golden Idol series has evolved, moving from historical mysteries in the original Case of the Golden Idol to the modern-day crime thriller of Rise of the Golden Idol. This latest DLC continues that evolution, available on PC and exclusively on mobile via Netflix Games.
In The Sins of New Wells, Detective Samson, partnered with Cliff Savea, investigates a series of brutal murders with unsettling links to Lemurian magic. The game retains its unique puzzle-solving mechanics, requiring players to connect words and concepts to unravel the mystery, piecing together evidence to form theories and reach conclusions.
The Golden Idol series stands out for its innovative approach to point-and-click gameplay, constantly pushing the boundaries of its mechanics. The intriguing puzzle design makes The Sin of New Wells a highly anticipated addition. However, the series' rich lore might present a challenge for newcomers.
Despite this, The Sin of New Wells is a significant addition to Netflix Games' library, offering fans another chapter in this popular point-and-click adventure. Curious about other top-tier games available on Netflix? Check out our list of the 10 best games currently on the platform!
