Cha took the Guns from the storage and don't know what she did with them. Changed the access code, in the town of Blue MO. Fun game and easy to use. It's fun figuring out what happened to "fictional" characters. Highly recommend you check it out. So much more can be solved and protected from what lurks above and within.

It's a good game, good puzzles and decent length, but hiding the cost away as an in app purchase was frustrating, as i came into this knowing it was a paid app and had to download it anyway just to figure out how much it would cost. (11.29 CAD) its worth it anyway, but please just be upfront next time. many of us WANT to support you, doing this in order to get downloads from people who dont play paid apps is just ensuring that no one is happy.

Played this game when it was on Netflix games and on Xbox Game Pass. It's a great mobile game for when family is watching the main screen but you're only half into it. The Case of the Golden Idol is a deduction game where each scene is a whodunnit. The clues are logical and solutions satisfying. Great illustrations and a fascinating story. The first couple chapters are free so you can see if you like it but to me it's well worth $11 or $12 for the full experience. Not much replayability, tho.
