Duck Detective: The Ghost of Glamping

All in all, the original Duck Detective was a wholesome, entertaining, totally charming bit of brilliance, and this stand-alone sequel does it justice.

If Duck Detective: The Secret Salami left you hungry for more, then The Ghost of Glamping’s same deductive gameplay, adorable visuals, and silly storytelling should be a delicious, bite-sized follow-up.

Duck Detective: The Ghost of Glamping is just brilliant. It is for the most part a straight up evolution of the first game but that is certainly not a bad thing. It keeps the charming characters, the witty jokes and references, great music and voice acting but improves upon most criticisms we had. A better hint system and overall a smoother puzzle solving experience are just what this game needed.

Long may the Duck Detective franchise continue. If this game is anything to go by, it has a bright, compelling future ahead.

Now that we have two instalments in the Duck Detective franchise, there is nothing stopping you from marathoning both and having the best ducking detective experience. This time around the setting and story caught my attention a lot more, with a great variety of characters and puzzles to solve. Don’t go in expecting a complete revision of its predecessor making the ultimate experience, it is pretty much the same game but with a new coat of paint, but for me that’s all I really needed. I’ll always come back for more with Duck Detectives shenanigans!

Pleasingly, Duck Detective: The Ghost of Glamping‘s ending again grants the player the power to decide the suspect’s ultimate fate. So, I look forward to hearing which choices everyone makes. Less expected was a post-credits scene, which I won’t spoil, but has me prepared for another entry in the series. With this latest game making much-appreciated improvements and with some elements still up for a little polish, I look forward to another seriously silly adventure.

This short, sweet detective game is exactly that—short and sweet. With the ability to allow hints or turn hints off, you can increase the difficulty if you're a super sleuth, or keep it easy if you're looking to veg out. The cast of characters is vibrant, and the jokes are plentiful. Follow Detective Eugene McQuackin and find some not-so-hidden clues to help quack the case.

Good stories, funny, charming, just like the first one. Unfortunately, like the first game, this is also very short (2 hours to 100%). If you enjoyed the first one, you know what to expect here.

I was unlucky enough to find it not funny. For a detective game, the gameplay is streamlined and fun.
