Our take on Detective Gallo
Puzzle-averse players will likely bounce when progression depends on working through the game's many logic challenges and quests. Those expecting action will hit an earlier wall: the investigation is explicitly non-violent and does not center on combat.
What is Detective Gallo?
Detective Gallo is a non-violent point-and-click adventure set in a comic-noir city.
Five exotic plants have been killed, and a wealthy client hires Gallo to investigate. What begins as a domestic accident develops into a larger mystery involving unusual characters and a difficult case. Players examine the investigation through quests and dozens of logic puzzles, with Gallo serving as a cynical, sarcastic rooster private eye. The game uses hand-drawn, frame-by-frame animation and includes more than 50 minutes of original jazz-noir music. English and Italian voice acting are included, alongside multilingual support.
