For our latest mystery game, we’re going to jump back in time to a game I played a little over a year ago – Duck Detective: The Secret Salami.
You can read my full review over at MonsterVine, but the long and short of it is that you play a divorced, bread-addicted duck investigating a case in a game that’s as wacky as it sounds.
You search each environment, investigate for clues, and question characters about information you’ve found in order to make “deducktions.”
Yes, I loved “deducktions” when I wrote that review, and I still do. Deducktions. Deducktions.
(Can we get a Great Ace Attorney crossover and do a Dance of Deducktion?)
It’s a silly, humorous game with a mystery that’s a bit more serious than you might expect, and it only takes a few hours to beat. In my original review, I said I wished it was the start of a longer story, and since there’s now a sequel coming out soon, maybe I’ll get my wish after all.
…Deducktions.
More like Great Quack Attorney, am I right? heheheh
So they just fully embrace “deducktions” eh? I wonder which came first, the game or the pun xD
Hahaha, I wonder.
Missed opportunity: “…investigating a case in a game that’s as quacky as it sounds.”
There you go, I should have done that one, haha.
