Get ready for some waterfowl warfare with Sitting Ducks Deluxe! In this chaotic and fun game, you and your friends play as ducks trying to survive a pond full of dangers. The goal is simple: be the last duck swimming, while hunters and other threats lurk. Each player controls a family of ducks and uses action cards to move their little birds, dodge opponents, and, of course, shoot the other players' ducks! With a souped-up deck compared to the previous version, the game features over 100 cards with hilarious and devastating effects. Imagine cards like 'Bird Flu' that clears the entire pond, or 'Frank-ent-stein' that lets you revive your dead ducks using the remains of your enemies! There's even the 'Moby Duck' mechanic, which focuses attacks on one player for a turn, and 'Ducklings' that bring a forced pause to the violence (no shooting in front of the little ones!). The Deluxe edition also includes a game board and crosshair markers, making the experience even more tactical and visual. It's a fast-paced game, full of twists and laughter, perfect for those who enjoy a dose of luck and a dash of strategic meanness. If you like card games with a light theme, lots of interaction, and a touch of dark humor, Sitting Ducks Deluxe will win you over.
