Essentially a more accessible, streamlined version of Return of the Obra Dinn, which at the end of the day, still makes for a pretty fantastic game. Not to say the game doesn't have its own identity, just that it wears its inspiration on its sleeve. While I personally prefer Obra Dinn's more esoteric, hands-off approach to deductive gameplay, Golden Idol is way more approachable to those trying to get into the genre.

Also played both DLCs (The Spider of Lanka, The Lemurian Vampire).

I got stuck before too long and didn't feel drawn to come back.
