The Rise of the Golden Idol is a fantastic puzzle game somewhat similar to investigative games like Return of the Obra Dinn. Although playing the first game isn't strictly necessary, it helps to appreciate more of the story. This game is a little longer and a bit more polished than the first, and overall the difficulty is slightly higher. The DLC is larger and harder. Key words are now collected automatically, but there's still no auto-sort. Both games are heaps of fun and deeply underrated.

I completed some cases and earned the achievements for them, but the problem is that after I turn off the game, the achievements are undone. Please fix this.
