Understand the Core Gameplay Mechanics of Duck Detective: Secret Salami

For newcomers, it's worth noting that Duck Detective: Secret Salami comes in two versions: a free version and a paid version. This guide focuses solely on the story mode of the free version, accessible to all players. Despite its relatively short duration, the game has left a lasting impression, quickly becoming a cult classic within a year of its release. The gameplay is divided into seven chapters, referred to as "Deducktions" in the game's terminology. Here they are in sequence:

• The Nest Egg
• The Entrance
• The Suspects
• The Client and More Suspects
• The Presents
• The Message and The Business
• The Receptionist and More Business

Deducktion #1. The Nest Egg

The narrative kicks off in Eugene McQuacklin's rather gloomy apartment. The Nest Egg chapter sets the tone and introduces you to the protagonist. Scrutinize every detail in the room, from the papers strewn on the floor to the loaf of bread and the phone on the desk. Remember, keen observation is key in this game.

Answer – Mr. McQuacklin had spent his last savings on buying bread.

Deducktion #2. The Entrance

Pay close attention to all the signs and notes you encounter at The Entrance. Read each one carefully. Most importantly, engage in conversations with everyone you meet. This is your chance to start collecting vital evidence to solve the mystery of the missing salami.

Answer – Sophie is scared and upset due to receiving a terrifying note.

Deducktion #3. The Suspects

The crocodile appears suspicious. Grill him with as many questions as possible. Notice the green bag beside his desk; it might suggest he's our thief. It's also wise to check his computer; you never know what secrets he might be hiding. This stage focuses on interrogations.

Answer – Laura had hired Detective Duck to find her stolen lunch.

Deducktion #4. The Client and More Suspects

The sheep with the whisk seems too innocent to be a thief, but don't be fooled by appearances. Examine each person in the room thoroughly and don't skip anyone. Focus on the lady with the whisk, particularly her hair just above her right ear. This might lead you to crucial clues for The Client and More Suspects deduction.

Answer – Sophie works as a receptionist. Manfred is the Branch Manager. Laura works in customer service. Freddy works at the operational office.

Deducktion #5. The Presents

Sophie's gifts include a plushie and a necklace, but it's the book that piques our interest. Scrutinize every corner of the page and read the note carefully. You might find some valuable clues there.

Answer – Laura gifted Sophie a plushie. Rufus gave Sophie a book. Boris gave Sophie a necklace. Nothing got stolen.

Deducktion #6. The Message and the Business

For this chapter, you'll need to venture outside into the parking lot. As it's raining, bring an umbrella because you'll be talking to Boris out there for a while. Make sure to gather every possible detail for The Message and The Business.

Answer – Salamis are being illegally imported from Salsiccia.

Deducktion #7. The Receptionist and More Business

This is where the plot thickens and the truth comes to light. Inspect every box in the room, including the electrical wires. You'll eventually find a safe full of clues. The safe's code is 214. This might be the final piece needed to catch the salami thief.

Answer – Sophie was kidnapped as she wanted to snitch. Manfred is the salami thief. Sophie is an accomplice. Boris is an accomplice.
