Duck Detective: The Secret Salami has officially made its way to Android devices, brought to you by Snapbreak and developed by Happy Broccoli Games. Step into the webbed shoes of Eugene McQuacklin, a determined detective who waddles into a local bus company with one mission: to crack the case of the missing salami.
Duck Detective Needs to Find Who Stole the Secret Salami
The adventure begins with Eugene, a duck donning a trench coat, navigating through a rough patch in his life. His latest case? A seemingly trivial stolen lunchbox. But as Eugene delves deeper, what starts as a simple theft spirals into a larger mystery involving suspicious alpacas, office grudges, and passive-aggressive corporate drama. Duck Detective: The Secret Salami is fully voice-acted, featuring a cast of quirky animal coworkers who are more bewildered by Eugene's presence than fearful of their secrets being uncovered. As you navigate the bus depot, you'll chat with these characters, gather clues, and jot down notes in your detective journal to unravel who's who, their roles, and the significance of the stolen sandwich.
A Point-And-Click Adventure That Is Full of Awkward Stares
One of the unique mechanics in the game is staring. Yes, you can literally stare down suspects until they break under the pressure. There's even a dedicated button for quacking! Duck Detective: The Secret Salami embraces the neo-noir parody genre, placing you in a smoky jazz lounge with rain pouring outside, as you narrate your own melancholic thoughts about divorce—all while being a duck. If puzzles aren't your thing, don't worry; the game offers a Story Mode that automates the gameplay, allowing you to enjoy the story without the challenge. You can try the first two levels for free before deciding to unlock the full game.
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. It's available now on the Google Play Store.
