Detective Gallo

It is a old-school point and click remembering the 90's era. So you have a bit of moon-logic here and there and a lot of back-and-forth. Besides of that, it is a good game. I recommend using a guide.

The animation and dialogue were amazing. It was a very fun game but some of the puzzle work was very abstract.

Translation issues. Jokes don't land or sometimes don't even make sense. I kind of doubt they are funny even in the original language. Can't stand when something, such as the moon, is visible to the character from everywhere on the screen, but the character has to slowly walk to a certain spot to speak the "look" description. The character should stay put and just turn toward the object.

Die Spielfigur läuft ärgerlich langsam, das ruiniert für mich das Spielerlebnis. The character runs annoyingly slowly, which ruins the gaming experience for me.

Great simple and straight forward Point & Click.

So this is part of what is apparently a subsubgenre, of continental European games done in retro-cartoon style with cheesy jokes. This, Detective Case & Clown Bot,  Magret & FaceDeBouc, Mortadelo y Filemón ... these are all so similar there's clearly some seed work out there, like a 70s kids' cartoon or something, but I don't know enough about like, Italio-French pop culture to know what it could be. There's something going on in the romance-language-o-sphere, that's for sure. They certainly have a... brand of humor. That's actually making this sound worse than it was, though. The one thing that's definitely an influence here is 90s adventure games for kids like Putt-Putt and Freddie Fish -- the look, tone, and gameplay are so of this era that it's kind of hard to believe it's a modern game. I can easily imagine myself playing and enjoying this as a 10-year-old. I think I really would have liked it. And that's kind of the upshot here, this really feels like a kids' game. It's not raunchy, thank god, and the jokes can be quite good, unlike in its cousin games, but nonetheless the overall vibe is really of something for children. Like games from that era, it's also extremely obtuse in gameplay, and has some issues where like, items won't combine until you hit the point in the story where you need to combine them, which could be annoying. But that stuff didn't really matter to me playing Putt-Putt and I'm not sure it would matter a ton to a modern child, either, especially if they had an adult looking over their shoulder and guiding them. That it's only a few hours from start to finish helps as well. But I can't see this having anything to offer for adults. Unless you're European, maybe...? Idk I don't understand any of these. I'll definitely be actively avoiding them going forward, they just feel like they've been wasting my time. This is a digression, but Mr. Act and I are huge Taskmaster fans, and were quite early adopters of it, because we both follow the British comedy scene pretty closely. We've also loved the Australia and New Zealand versions. We'd heard that the Norway version was also supposed to be good so we sat down to watch that and... couldn't. Not because there was anything wrong with it, but because the cultural gap was too big. We'd be watching, and someone would say something, and the audience would hysterically laugh, and we'd be like, "What in the world was the joke?" That's what these games remind me of, of bafflingly trying to interpret the Norwegian version of Taskmaster and just having to give up because the humor was too culturally specific.

J'aime bien les point and click à la base mais j'en fait assez peu, j'ai adoré les Deponia par exemple et j'ai vu passer ce jeu Detective Gallo avec une DA sympa dans un style de point and click très classique. J'ai un problème avec beaucoup de point and click c'est leur logique complétement illogique sur les puzzle / énigmes et lui il en tient une couche en terme de truc pas logique (pour les habitués de ce genre jeu il sera- je pense- facile ; mais parce qu'il ont l'habitude de la logique de ces jeux). C'est l'histoire d'un détective qui a l'air un peu nul dans son job mais qui va avoir une des plus grosse affaire de sa ville : trouver qui tue toutes les plantes des habitants. J'aime bcp l'ambiance barré du jeu, l'humour, les décors avec les perspectives éclatées etc mais quand tu dois faire 50% du jeu avec des soluces parce que la logique est ..., je trouve ça chiant. De plus le perso est un peu lent. Je recommande pas ce jeu personnellement à cause ça.

Punta e clicca in vecchio stile. Gli enigmi sono a tratti molto intuitivi e quindi facilmente capibili, a tratti no. Ma questo non inficia il divertimento. Le animazioni sono veramente belle e ricordano molto lo stile "pareroso" di Ducktales. Altamente consigliato per gli amanti del genere. Suggerisco di salvare veramente spesso perchè sulla fine del gioco mi è andato in crash.

Per fare il pieno di gusto, perché non provare anche un delizioso gallo ripieno con Parmigiano Reggiano. Una ricetta molto semplice e con ingredienti saporiti, veramente da leccarsi i baffi. Mentre per cucinare queste carni in casseruola, un’altra idea vincente è quella del gallo in umido con olive capperi. https://www.agricolaguidi.com/come-cucinare-il-gallo/
