Understand the Core Gameplay Mechanics of Duck Detective: Secret Salami

*Duck Detective: Secret Salami* comes in two versions: a free version and a paid one. This guide focuses on the story mode available in the free version, which is accessible to everyone. Despite its relatively short length, the game has made a significant impact, quickly becoming a cult classic within a year of its release. The game is structured into seven chapters, known officially as "Deducktions," which you will navigate through in this order:

1. The Nest Egg
2. The Entrance
3. The Suspects
4. The Client and More Suspects
5. The Presents
6. The Message and The Business
7. The Receptionist and More Business

Deducktion #1. The Nest Egg

Your adventure begins in Eugene McQuacklin’s rather gloomy apartment. The Nest Egg sets the tone and introduces you to the protagonist. Make sure to examine every item in the room, from the scattered papers on the floor to the loaf of bread and the phone on the desk. Remember, observation is key in this game.

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

Deducktion #2. The Entrance

At The Entrance, pay close attention to all the signs and notes you encounter. Read them carefully and make it a point to speak with every character you meet. This is your chance to start collecting crucial evidence to crack the case of the missing salami.

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

Deducktion #3. The Suspects

The crocodile you meet here seems suspicious. Ask him as many questions as you can. Notice the green bag next to his desk—could he be our thief? Don't forget to check his computer for any hidden secrets. The Suspects stage is all about interrogations.

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

Deducktion #4. The Client and More Suspects

Don't be fooled by the sheep with the whisk; appearances can be deceiving. Examine each character in the room thoroughly. Focus on the lady with the whisk, particularly her hair just above her right ear. This might give you the insights needed to make the right deductions in The Client and More Suspects.

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 interests us most. Scrutinize every corner of its pages and read the note inside carefully. You might find important clues hidden 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 deduction, you'll need to venture out into the parking lot. It's raining, so don't forget your umbrella as you'll be talking to Boris for a while. Gather every piece of information you can 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 emerges. Inspect every box in the room, including the electrical wires. You'll eventually find a safe filled with clues. The safe's code is 214, which 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.
