Eugene treating bread the same way most hard-boiled detectives treat alcohol or drugs is hilarious to me, especially since bread is actually really bad for ducks.
@kayhaven4710 i'm not sure what kind of people you mean that it wouldn't be good for. There will always be exceptions for every food, for example, when you have allergies or are intolerant to gluten/dairy. but bread should be a healthy choice for people without any intolerance 😁
@@kimberlyxvobread is a carb, carbs turn into sugar, my uncle has diabetes and refuses to believe carbs like bread, pasta, etc make his blood sugar go up and if someone is allergic to gluten then stuff like that is a no-go for them also
It was really kind of annoying she didn't see it when a character she talked to pointed it out blatantly in dialogue meant for people who didn't catch it initially, then spent minutes mix matching different words to find the right combination, and _still_ didn't pay attention to it when Ducktective was unraveling the mystery when all the letters were even more clearly prominent. Then she has no idea about Sophie having a secret because she didn't see the hidden message. Like why even play a mystery game at that point when instead of looking for and at evidence to come to a conclusion, you just collect info points from the environment and brute force the results until it solves itself? That's not a very satisfying gameplay loop, trying every possible combination not caring if the sentence makes sense until the notepad allows you to progress.

I hope they do more games with Duck Detective. It was hilarious to watch, all the jokes and puns. We need a Duck Detective 2 with multiple cases in it!
This duck is right. Bread is horrible for ducks. It can actually kill them. Get some seed from your local feed store. It's a lot better for them. Duck food is pretty cheap.
i am currently 44 minutes in and have only just realised he's holding a notebook, not a bottle of wine. genuinely thought this guy was an avian alcoholic 😭
What a great little game. Especially the voice acting and over-complex plot. Totally loving the humour too. In particular the loading screen 'facts' about ducks. BTW the letter is an acrostic. Take the first letter of each word: Be quiet or else. This is hinted at several times. A really entertaining walk-through as always, Gab. ❤❤
Hinted at VERY obviously several times. Explicitly spelled out as well during the Duck's breakdown at around 55 minutes. But still not paid attention to.
@@billbill6094It's clever, isn't it? This is right in your face, but at the same time hidden. Love that stuff. ("tiriyf batsth" is ancient Mayan for "clever, isn't it?")
I just finished watching your frog detective video and it made me so happy, so I feel super lucky that you uploaded his today! Cozy animal detective vibes with great dialogue is a niche I didn't know I would love.
Imagine: They make more of these games and it becomes like a series of them and each game the cases become more unhinged, eventually leading to an actual murder investigation for one of them 😅
Interesting. Watching the various endings, it appears like if you don't select anyone to arrest, it forces you to go over the suspects and choose someone
Liked for BB. And also because the game made me want toast. And I also enjoy watching Gab enjoy knocking things over, satisfying her inner chaotic kitty.
loved watching you play this! if you’re looking for another lighthearted mystery, i highly recommend the Frog Detective series! there are three games and they’re all quick plays but extremely charming
I can definitely see letting Sophie off, since she backed out. I wouldn't, but I can see why people might. Manfred, I'm sorry, nothing excuses his crimes.
I have been having a stressful couple of weeks because of some severe weather and personal issues, soI have been needing a serious pick-me-up. As always, Gab delivered ten fold! Ironically in our backyard, a few Ducks were in our pool attacking the female and we were able to stop the fight before things got too out of wing. The Duck we assume started the whole thing left and the male/female stayed for hour's just calmy swimming in our pool and walking around. So, I guess Ducks are a huge theme today! LOL
i am usually not a big fan of games like these, where you have to talk to the same characters over and over again and only walk in the same environment, looking at the same objects and waiting for something to change. BUT i really enjoyed watching you play this game! i was genuinely curious about the story, which like never happens to me :] your reactions were so similar with my thoughts, which made it even more enjoyable, especially with freddie ^-^
I hope (if we do get another game/case) that there will be newspaper clippings or clues like that to sorta summarize what happened to BearBus company and the people who worked there And if Freddy gets hired as an assistant, then he can also share some details while in the office or something abt what happened at the company and the aftermath of the case and Manfred and Sophie being arrested
This was such a fun, cute game! I loved the noir scenes of him describing the environment hahaha and the humor was fun too! The Darkside Detective is a really fun game that I think Gab would enjoy! It's a point and click with HILARIOUS dialogue. If she liked Freddy, she'd love Dooley ❤️
As a German this game cracked me up. 🦆🔍 I loved the humour; bread being treated as a duck drug and all the towns or cities being named after food. The plot I found only middling tbh, but the game was so charming it made up for it. My fave was the alien book 👽😂, also I think the "alien pin" Gab looked at was supposed to be a Star Trek emblem. 🖖
This game reminds me of the book my brother wrote about animals being detectives and solving a murder (it wasn’t a child’s animal book lol). The main character was Detective Sally the Pūkeko 😂
You would think a detective would know their client before taking the case lol not just have to figure it out along the way I don’t understand that part of the game unless they asked to remain anonymous
Wow this is amazing. In the small town i was born, this actually happened, before the Berlin wall fell, but it was not sausage that was being smuggled. In the end "Manfred" got greedy and did some really shady business with another company. That was when it got investigated, first by reporters and then police. In the end, the whole bus company got shut down. The bigger bus company from the closest bigger city extended their bus lines and today nobody misses that old bus company. I just checked their old building, and it is a real estate company there now.

Hahahaha yes! Gravity falls shows are so silly
I'm surprised that Rufus and Margaret aren't also arrested for the vouchers
Right I expected them to.
Yeah, that seems like the worst of the two crimes.
It's basically the reason why the branch was going under in the first place. I would have pinned it all on Rufus.
Agreed, I wonder why Eugene didn't file a report on those two.
Not to mention the blackmail on top of that.
We are not only in Germany but apparently Eastern Germany before 1989. Because the Salami was paid with "Western Money".
It has to be a different timeline, because they have internet and social media.
The salami thief note spells “ Be Quiet Or Else” lol

Finding out Brian David Gilbert did the voice for the alligator makes so much sense why it was such a hilarious character.
I thought the voice seemed familiar!!! It makes so much sense now :>
I didn’t recognize him but Freddy had ~the BDG energy~
Yesssss such a good deduc(k)tion!!!!! 🦆
I was listening closely to the voice and had a "WAIT A MINUTE" moment
I liked the game, but tbh I think there should be the option of arresting Rufus and Margareth too since they were also doing very illegal things
The bear is literally called Mr. Serious and the cats last name is Anxious. I love this game

Really?! Thats amazinggggg

Gab's concern about Laura being overworked had me crying in American.

Mable Pines would be losing her mind over this! 😂

That was very enjoyable to watch. The art style--especially the way the characters move with that little "poof!" cloud behind them--was so cute!
I was just watching the Froggy Detective episodes again and wishing Gab would do another cute detective game. Hooray!
My Goodness; I've never heard anyone talk with SO PASSIONATELY about a loaf of bread 😅
Ducktective: "Quack, Quack!!!"
All I saw was Gab, new upload and the words 'Duck Detective'. I have no idea what this is, but I am so excited!!
I played the demo for this and loved it but can’t afford to buy the full game at the minute so I’m super happy to see how it goes!
This game needs to be a series. And I hope if it does become a series that Gab will do a full playthrough
ducks can spend up to around 70-80 "SECONDS" underwater! not days!!!!!!
Duck detective: the secret salami! let’s go! thanks for the video gab!❤
One truth will prevail! I love this game! The triumphant music reminds me of Case Closed/ Detective Conan

I love that this is a joke that can work in two languages!!!
I played this game only demo version I hope to get this. Thank you for playing it Gab
And what a quackable case this is.
I really hope that Evelien soon plays the other Frog Detective games!
I'm honestly surprised gab doest just play all these detective games on hard. Shes really smart and well experience
I hope (if we do get another game/case) that there will be newspaper clippings or clues like that to sorta summarize what happened to BearBus company and the people who worked there
And if Freddy gets hired as an assistant, then he can also share some details while in the office or something abt what happened at the company and the aftermath of the case and Manfred and Sophie being arrested

I love recognizing so many of the voices
This game is really cute (and a bit dramatic sometimes, lol!)
Edit, now I want plushies of the characters
Everything about this is so ridiculously charming lol.
bought this game on sale and didn’t stop playing until i finished!! i love it so much and im so excited for any future duck detective game!
I mean... if I got a present of high quality salami I'd be excited and looking for some sharp cheese, dill pickles and a whiskey.
Yes!! Iloved the frog detective so i was super excited to see this one!! It was just as fun. What a cute game!
I hope they make more Duck detective because this is delightful, and the voice acting is great
Gab: Are we a German duck?
Duck: B R E A D!
Yep, definitely German.
I loved your frog detective playthrough and now this! Duck Detective is Great! Loved the silly duck facts on the load screens.
I NEED another duck detective story omg I NEED.
BDG has such a recognizable voice I knew it was him with the first word Freddy said lol.
That reveal music reminds me a lot of Detective Conan's. Great little game, I enjoyed watching it a lot. :)
This was such a wonderful game, and so fun to watch you play! I hope the devs do more chapters or games of the Duck Detective.
Instead of alcohol they have him eating bread!! So funny 😄😄
“I’ll have you know that Ducktective has a deep mystery in its story, and a lot of humor that goes way over kids”
i auditioned for this game as a voice over.
sadly didnt get picked, but love the game idea
I am more invested in this workplace than my own.
This is such a cute game! I love the deducing of the pieces of evidence and the art style for the game. It was fun watching you play. ^^
Freddy has strong DEREK! vibes from The Good Place lol
A great game! I would also love to see a sequel with Freddy as the sidekick to Duck Detective! So cool!
Game’s music is too relaxing I was nodding off 😂
This game is so funny omg. I laughed out loud so much watching this!!
You would think a detective would know their client before taking the case lol not just have to figure it out along the way I don’t understand that part of the game unless they asked to remain anonymous
I thought i wouldn’t enjoy this game, watching you play it but the voice of the duck is entertaining
I knew from the demo that this game would be something special and it did not disappoint
brian david gilbert killing it as freddy lol
I would love to see Gab play Potionomics, that game treats brewing potions almost like little puzzles with story and I think she'd enjoy it :)
This is giving Chicken Police vibes. Even the music.
I thought for sure this was an official Gravity Falls sort of spinoff game xD But I think the actual name of the show there was Duck-tective
This game is a lot more involved than I thought I’d be. Think I’ll add it to my wishlist.

would definitely watch an infinite number of hours of this. i hope they make another
Lovely video Nami! Although on your koala plush you have the pajamas on backwards. The rectangular seam goes on its back.
That was so great 😂😂😂 definitely need another one
