Rise of the Golden Idol\'s first DLC arrives with The Sins of New Wells, coming soon to Netflix

Rise of the Golden Idol's first DLC, The Sin of New Wells, arrives March 4th, bringing a new chapter to the acclaimed point-and-click adventure series. Step into the shoes of Detective Roy Samson, a newcomer to the gritty, crime-ridden 9th district, where gruesome murders are just the tip of the iceberg.

The Golden Idol series has evolved, transitioning from historical intrigue in the original to the modern-day, hard-boiled detective thriller seen in Rise of the Golden Idol. Now, available on PC and exclusively on mobile via Netflix Games, The Sins of New Wells plunges players into a world of corruption and Lemurian magic alongside Samson and his partner, Cliff Savea.

The series' unique puzzle-solving mechanics remain a core feature. Players link words and concepts to build theories, examine evidence, and piece together the narrative. By exploring scenes, you gather clues and construct potential timelines or draw alternative conclusions.

The Sin of New Wells continues the Golden Idol series' innovative approach to point-and-click gameplay, offering a compelling new mystery to unravel. Its distinctive puzzle mechanics and intriguing storyline are sure to captivate fans. However, the series' rich lore might present a steeper learning curve for newcomers.
