Guide these cuddly little guys with the big beak across a lake or river, or if you're more of a hunter type aim and shoot some game.
Ducks are a type of waterfowl, i.e. aquatic birds and related to geese and swans. They are considered to have a cosmopolitan distribution, which means that they are not native to one particular area, but can be found all over the world. Some have become domesticated and live with or near humans, while others are still wild and are often hunted for food or sport. In popular culture, famous ducks include the Donald Duck, Daffy Duck and Howard the Duck. Their cute and unthreatening appearance makes them suitable as family-friendly protagonists of their own comic books or animated series.
So if you like geese and ducklings or even like shooting birds, you should give these online duck games a try. They are free to play, and require no download or registration. Just some time puzzling away or a steady hand to aim and shoot at the ones trying to fly away. Have fun!

Gameplay[edit]
Duck Game is a 2D action video game that features primarily shooting and platforming mechanics. The game has a single-player arcade mode where the user can complete challenges to get tickets, which can be used to unlock in-game hats and game modifiers (such as Moon gravity or explosive props), as well as local or online multiplayer with up to four other players.[5][6]Duck Game has a simple premise: players die in one hit, and last player standing wins the round.[7][8] The game features a simple control scheme: beyond basic movement controls, the player can pick up/throw a weapon, use their equipped weapon, strafe (walk backwards), quack, and ragdoll. Similar to fighting games, angled shots and some other maneuvers require precisely timed input combinations.
Duck Game has several unique elements, including multiple hats, a quack button, and a ragdoll button.[6][9]
Development[edit]
Duck Game was developed by Vancouver-based developer Landon Podbielski.

Duck Game received generally positive reviews from critics. The game received an average Metacritic score of 82 based on six reviews.[13] Critics cite the multiplayer as driving the games appeal.[6][14] Reviewers likened the game to other successful 2D brawlers, including Super Smash Bros. Brawl, TowerFall, and Samurai Gunn.[6][9]
Sean Flint was critical of the name choice, saying 'it describes absolutely nothing about it other than the fact that it may contain ducks'.[8] Several reviewers have complained about the inconsistent level design, and lack of an engaging single player experience.[7][8]
The game has had a small but committed competitive scene since launch, with gameplay mostly consisting of exploits to elevate the skill ceiling.
