From Happy Broccoli Games who made Kraken Academy!!, a new mystery adventure has arrived with Duck Detective: The Secret Salami out now. One I missed highlighting from earlier in May, because there's just too many good games being released!

Looks like a great one too with an Overwhelmingly Positive rating from users on Steam.

"Solving crime is no walk in the pond. You are a down-on-his-luck detective who also happens to be a duck. Use your powers of de-duck-tion to inspect evidence, fill in the blanks, and bust the case wide open, in a narrative mystery adventure where nothing is quite as it seems."

De-Duck-tion?! Aaaarrrggghhh! That's too low even for me. But in the spirit of that sort of thing:

Duck Detective: "Lady, you'll be getting my bill later."
Lady: "You're so cheeky! I haven't even said I'd go on a date!"

I just watched RTGame's playthrough of this last night, the voice acting is really quite good. And other than De-Duck-tion, there's actually hardly any puns.

A duck detective? That's just silly...

Frog? Sure! Alligator? Of course! Giraffe? Most definitely!

But a duck? Sheer nonsense!

Goodness me, it's like a combination of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Frog Detective, and Paper Mario, and it looks, sounds, and feels utterly charming. Will dig into the reviews later - this might be right up my alley.

There's an alligator who'd really like to be your sidekick…
