Duck Detective: The Secret Salami has officially made its debut on Android, brought to you by Snapbreak and developed by Happy Broccoli Games. Step into the webbed shoes of Eugene McQuacklin, a detective duck on a mission to unravel a mystery at a local bus company.
Duck Detective Needs to Find Who Stole the Secret Salami
The adventure begins with Eugene, a duck donning a trench coat, navigating a rough patch in life. His latest case? A seemingly trivial matter of a stolen lunch. However, what starts as a hunt for a missing lunchbox quickly escalates into a larger web of intrigue, involving suspicious alpacas, office grudges, and even passive-aggressive corporate drama. Duck Detective: The Secret Salami is fully voice-acted, featuring a cast of quirky animal coworkers who are more baffled by Eugene's presence than worried about their secrets being uncovered. As you waddle through the bus depot, you'll chat with these characters, gather clues, and jot down notes in your detective journal, piecing together the identities and motives of everyone involved in this sandwich saga.
A Point-And-Click Adventure That Is Full of Awkward Stares
One unique gameplay mechanic involves staring down suspects until they crack under your gaze. Yes, there's even a dedicated button to quack! Duck Detective: The Secret Salami embraces its neo-noir parody roots, placing you in a smoky jazz lounge with rain pouring outside as Eugene narrates his inner thoughts on life and divorce, all while maintaining his duck persona.
For those less enthused by puzzles, the game offers a Story Mode that automates the gameplay. You can try out the first two levels for free before deciding to unlock the full experience.
If you enjoyed games like Frog Detective, Later Alligator, or Return of the Obra Dinn, Duck Detective: The Secret Salami might just be your next favorite. Dive into this quirky adventure on the Google Play Store.
