Duck Detective: The Secret Salami has officially landed on Android, brought to you by Snapbreak and developed by Happy Broccoli Games. Step into the webbed shoes of Eugene McQuacklin, a detective who waddles into a local bus company with one mission: to crack the case of the missing lunch.
Duck Detective Needs to Find Who Stole the Secret Salami
Let's dive into how Duck Detective: The Secret Salami unfolds. You play as a duck donning a trench coat, navigating through a rough patch in life, and your next big case? A stolen lunchbox! What begins as a seemingly trivial theft quickly escalates into a larger mystery involving suspicious alpacas and simmering office grudges. You'll even delve into the world of passive-aggressive corporate drama.
The game is fully voice-acted, featuring a cast of quirky animal coworkers who are more baffled by your presence than worried about being exposed. As you waddle around the bus depot, you'll chat with them, gather clues, and jot down notes in your detective journal. Your mission is to piece together who's who, what they do, and why someone's sandwich sparked a full-blown investigation.
A Point-And-Click Adventure That Is Full of Awkward Stares
Yes, staring is a mechanic in the game, and you'll find yourself staring down suspects until they crack. There's even a dedicated button just to quack!
Duck Detective: The Secret Salami is a neo-noir parody, placing you in a smoky jazz lounge with rain pouring outside, narrating your own melancholic inner thoughts about divorce—as a duck, no less.
If puzzles aren't your thing, don't worry; you can switch to Story Mode, which automates the gameplay. You can try out the first two levels for free before deciding to unlock the full game.
