Fowl antics
- by Jim Norman
Duck Detective: The Secret Salami went unnoticed by many when it launched on Switch last year, which is unfortunate, as this quirky detective game featuring a case-solving duck addressing office intrigues was truly exceptional remarkable.
Fortunately, for those who missed it, another case is on the horizon as developer Happy Broccoli Games has officially revealed that a spooky sequel, Duck Detective: The Ghost of Glamping, is set to waddle onto Switch on 22nd May.
Similar to its predecessor, Ghost of Glamping features the renowned Duck Detective Eugene McQuacklin (yes, truly) as he sets aside his divorce-related issues and bread cravings (once again, true) to resolve a dramatic, murder-less mystery.
If it seems absurd, that’s because it absolutely is. The Duck Detective sequel promises to be a relatively short experience (two to three hours), complete with full voice acting and fill-in-the-blank deductions. Anticipate humor, expect more duck puns than you ever imagined, and look forward to a dedicated ‘Quack’ button (once more, yes indeed).
You can find an overview of the game’s key features and a selection of screenshots below:
– A cozy mystery experience lasting 2-3 hours!
– A stand-alone sequel to the beloved ‘Duck Detective: The Secret Salami!
– Interrogate suspects, complete the puzzles, and crack the case!
– Fully voice-acted roster of mysteriously secretive characters!
– Immerse yourself in a murky pond of wrongdoing and uncover the reality!
– Toss bread to the noble beak of justice!
All of this is set to arrive shortly — what a stylish way to farewell Switch 1, right?
