In Invokyr, idols are worth $100 to $300 depending on their material, and most provide a passive effect while held. Bronze idols are worth $100, silver idols $150, gold idols $200, and diamond idols $300. Dropping an idol ends its effect until it is picked up again.
Idol values
| Material | Value |
|---|
| Bronze | $100 |
| Silver | $150 |
| Gold | $200 |
| Diamond | $300 |
Idol appearances vary, so you cannot identify an idol’s specific effect until you pick it up. The same effect can appear at different rarities; idols found farther from the game room have a chance to be a higher rarity.
Bronze idols
| Idol | Effect while held |
|---|
| Normal Idol | Has no effect. Its eyes glow orange. |
| Ice Idol | Creates a frost field around the holder’s feet. The holder and players within the field slide as if on ice. Its eyes glow blue. |
| Miniaturizing Idol | Shrinks the holder and raises the pitch of their voice. Its eyes do not glow. |
| Mirror Controls Idol | Mirrors the holder’s movement and aiming controls, including both WASD input and mouse movement. Its eyes glow pink. |
| Mirror Environment Idol | Flips the holder’s vision without changing their controls. Its eyes glow purple. |
| Teleport Idol | Teleports the holder to a random location in the manor whenever it is picked up. |
Silver idols
| Idol | Effect while held |
|---|
| Blinding Idol | Reduces the holder’s vision radius and creates a darkened, quieter area around them. Its eyes glow pink. |
| Music Box Idol | Plays music and spins its head. At random intervals it glows red; shortly afterward, spikes protrude from its body and deal 20 HP damage to the holder. Its eyes glow white. |
| Spider Idol | Grows legs and escapes from the first player who picks it up. It runs through the manor until it eventually stops or is caught. |
| Other Player Eyes Idol | Makes the holder see through the eyes of another random living player. If no other players are alive, it functions as a Normal Idol. |

Gold idols
| Idol | Effect while held |
|---|
| Storm Idol | Repeatedly creates nearby lightning strikes that damage the holder and can ignite the ground. Its eyes glow blue. |

How idols affect progression
- Bring idols back to the game board to earn their listed value and meet collection requirements for the next token movement die.
- If a collection requirement exists, the number of idols still needed appears above the board.
- After a movement die has already been unlocked, the board can still consume additional idols and spawn more movement dice, up to three. Only one of those dice can be used.
- Extra idols may be useful if the spawned die is cursed or has an undesirable roll.
