\u201cThe Pursuit\u201d<\/strong> is the second chapter in Rise of the Golden Idol<\/a><\/em>, and the case summary story puzzles will ask you to bring the events of the entire chapter together. You\u2019ll be able to complete it once you finish the \u201cGoing Once!<\/a>\u201d case.<\/p>\n

As with all of our Rise of the Golden Idol<\/em> case guides, our goal here is to provide a hint-based experience that will lead you to the solution without automatically showing you how to solve it. We\u2019ll start out with small hints for the puzzle, escalate to bigger ones, and eventually just spell out the answer if it\u2019s still not clicking for you. We\u2019ve separated our tiered hints and answers with in-game art, but be wary of scrolling farther than you intend.<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve finished all four cases in Chapter 2, you\u2019ll need to solve the Corkboard <\/strong>and Story <\/strong>to complete \u201cChapter 2: The Pursuit,\u201d which asks you to compile information from all three cases together. See our guides for the other Chapter 2 cases \u2014 \u201cGarden Retreat<\/a>,\u201d \u201cBehind Bars<\/a>,\u201d \u201cBlockbuster Release<\/a>,\u201d and \u201cGoing Once!<\/a>\u201d \u2014 if you need a refresher.<\/p>\n

In this Rise of the Golden Idol<\/em> guide, we\u2019ll walk you through the \u201cChapter 2: The Pursuit\u201d case summary, including hints and the full solution for the Corkboard and Story.<\/p>\n
