The eagerly awaited DLC for Rise of the Golden Idol, titled The Lemurian Phoenix, is set to launch on May 13th. This substantial expansion introduces an epic five-chapter storyline, tracing the repercussions of a single murder in 1910 across the decades. Delving into a complex tapestry of cursed treasure and ancient civilizations, intertwined with modern mysteries and murders, Rise of the Golden Idol continues to captivate players. As the sequel to the original Case of the Golden Idol, it has carved out a niche in the murder mystery and point-and-click adventure genre.

In Rise of the Golden Idol, players are thrust into intriguing scenes, piecing together keywords to unravel the who, what, and why behind each case. The blend of human motivations and ancient technology ensures that no two mysteries are alike, promising a fresh and thrilling experience with each playthrough. Expect nothing less than gripping narratives, grisly murders, and a cast of characters where everyone could be the culprit.

While Color Gray Games remains tight-lipped about the full content of The Lemurian Phoenix, they've tantalized fans with a cryptogram that hints at the names of the upcoming chapters: Eternity's End, Ascension, Royal Blood, Revelation, and A Blaze of Glory. These titles suggest a narrative deeply entwined with themes of religious fervor, charismatic gurus, and intense power struggles.
