Duck Detective: The Secret Salami

Point-and-click mystery where you're a down-on-his-luck duck detective hired to find a stolen salami. Interview suspects at an office populated by other animals, each with motives and alibis to pick apart. The core loop: gather clues from conversations and the environment, then piece together deductions by matching evidence to contradictions in witness statements. Puzzles revolve around logic rather than inventory combinations—you're connecting dots, not rubbing items together. The art style uses flat, expressive character designs with a muted palette that shifts based on mood. Dialogue leans comedic without undercutting the mystery itself; characters have personality quirks but aren't purely jokes. Short playthrough, maybe two to three hours. Works if you want a detective game that respects your time and doesn't gate progress behind pixel-hunting.
