If you enjoy clever point-and-click adventures with personality, Duck Detective delivers a memorable experience. You play as a down-on-his-luck duck solving a bizarre salami-related case with witty writing and gorgeous hand-drawn visuals. The free demo lets you test the waters before committing to the full game.

My Full Experience

I picked up Duck Detective during a lazy Sunday and ended up finishing it in one sitting—it’s that engaging. You play as Eugene McQuacklin, a duck detective who’s just trying to pay his rent, and the case involves a stolen salami at a corporate retreat. What stands out immediately is the quality: every line is fully voice acted, and the performances are genuinely funny without feeling forced. The puzzles strike a nice balance—challenging enough to make you think, but never frustrating. I especially liked the deduction board where you organize clues; it makes you feel like a real detective piecing things together. Visually, the game is a treat. The art style is quirky and colorful, with each character having their own distinct look and personality. I played on a tablet, and the touch controls felt natural—zooming in on clues and navigating dialogue trees was smooth. One thing to note: the game is relatively short. I finished in about three hours, and while some might wish for more cases, the experience itself is so polished and enjoyable that it didn’t bother me. Plus, the developers included a free demo, which is always a nice touch for mobile games. If you’re into narrative-driven games with humor and heart, this is well worth your time.

That was a lovely experience! The writing is really good, it's fully voice acted and the visuals are gorgeous. I appreciated that I could try the demo, before committing to the full game. Sure, it's on the pricey side for two-three hours of gameplay, but the quality makes more than up for it! Happy to support the developers to create more Duck Detective games! I really hope Ghost of Glamping will come out in the app store soon as well :)

Duck Detective: The Secret Salami is a charming, hilarious point-and-click adventure! Play as a perpetually broke duck detective investigating a salami-related mystery. Its quirky humor, delightful characters, and unique art style make for a truly engaging experience. The puzzles are clever but not overly difficult, keeping the story flowing. I picked it up last night and haven't put it down till I was done! 7/7 achievements during the achievement challenge ⭐

It's truly an awesome game. If you want to know how the game is, it's basically on point with the description, so I won't brag about it. It's kinda short, with this being the only case, but it was enough for me to play 5 hours of sime serious deducktive gameplay! Anyways. Nice game guys! Also a note: I've only played this on mobile using Play Pass, and I've heard some are dissatisfied with the demo or price. So if you think this would be fun to play, get the Steam version instead.

Very funny, puzzles are decently difficult (or you at least have to pay attention and review your evidence), and the game was a good length. I do kind of wish there were more mysteries to solve!

The game was a lot of fun and I enjoyed it a lot. Wish it was longer or they would make new cases for the Duck Detective!
