Ducks in a Row (2025)

Will you play your Ducks to your Row or add them to the pond to increase the value for all players. Can you swing the game in your favour, through triggering your ducks’ special abilities when you play them to your row? Each round sees players balancing their hand of duck cards. Choosing to play to the shared pond to increase the value of ducks in everyone’s row. Or playing to your row, enabling you to trigger your ducks’ special abilities. Timing can make all the difference when triggering a duck’s special power. Everyone plays simultaneously face down indicating row or pond using their location selection card. Once everyone reveals their chosen card the real test starts, each player now plays their card from lowest value to highest value. Will two ducks clash, leaving one or more homeless? Will you trigger your duck’s ability with perfect timing to take full advantage of their power? If you balance your hand of cards well, you'll be sure to ruffle the feathers of other players and come out on top in the pecking order. The winner will be the first player to 40 points. —description from the publisher
