Duck Detective: The Secret Salami
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! This is a short but twisty detective case.

— a player, Steam review · 2 hrs played“I love this game. The mystery and the characters are all very compelling. The devs manage to do so much with such a small location.
