As with all of our Rise of the Golden Idol 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’ll start out with small hints for the puzzle, escalate to bigger ones, and eventually just spell out the answer if it’s still not clicking for you. We’ve separated our tiered hints and answers with in-game art, but be wary of scrolling farther than you intend.
In this Rise of the Golden Idol guide, we’ll walk you through the “Under Construction” case, including hints and the full solution for the names, vehicles, and events puzzles.
Figuring out everyone’s name is the biggest hurdle to Under Construction, and you have eight different people (six living, two dead) to identify.
Listed from left to right, starting with the first row, here are the names of all the characters.
Under Construction vehicles
Vehicles are the first unique problem to solve in one of the case levels, and you’ll be asked to place each construction worker with the device they’re assigned to. We find this easiest to do after learning everyone’s name.
Listed from left to right, starting with the first row, here are the machines and their operators.
Under Construction events
The event puzzle requires nine words to solve in this vignette.
Monty Totsky used the demolisher on the sewage pipe. This resulted in the death of Joel Gregson.
Following this, the body of Luke Brown was found unexpectedly.
After “Under Construction,” you’ll tackle the third case of Chapter 1, “Newsflash.”
