About the game

What you do in a play session

In Sitting Ducks Gallery, you're a duck shooter — in a good way (sort of). The goal is to eliminate your opponents' ducks while keeping yours safe in the firing line. The game starts with a central row of exposed ducks, and each player has cards to aim, shoot, or manipulate the line. The fun lies in the special cards: you can move ducks out of harm's way, swap targets, or even save your own. But beware: if a player loses all their ducks, they're out! The game feels a bit like Guillotine with its row-manipulating antics, but with more feathers flying. It's fast, chaotic, and perfect for fans of card games with a dash of backstabbing.
