Goose Goose Duck is the brilliant social deduction game of get-away geese and mallard madness. You know what they say, in any large group of geese, there will always be a few sneaky ducks trying to sabotage and slaughter. In Goose Goose Duck, there are many roles that you could undertake, and there are many ways to play as well as cosmetics to grab.

How to play Goose Goose Duck

At its very core, Goose Goose Duck is a social deduction game. And with social deduction games comes roles, deceit, and sabotage. There are five game modes, but they all have the same constant of some players having a certain role that they need to fulfil whilst avoiding detection.

In a typical game, there will be geese and a few undercover ducks, blending in as geese. The role of the ducks generally is to kill all of the geese, and the geese’s job is to complete all of their tasks before they all die or vote out all of the ducks.

Upon finding a dead body, a geese (or a duck!) can report it, and a meeting is instantly held where everyone can discuss with each other what happened. During that time, everyone (including the ducks) can vote for someone to be killed, or they can vote to skip the killing. The player with the most votes gets killed, but the players will have no idea whether they killed a goose or a duck.

Ducks also have other strategies up their sleeves, such as being able to sabotage the map for advantages, as well as being able to quickly move around the map through vents, something the geese can’t do. Victory or defeat is instantly established upon one of the conditions being met.

That is basically how you play the game, the geese go around doing tasks and sticking together whilst the ducks try to slaughter whilst blending in. There are some special roles that gives some players their own objectives and win conditions, so watch out for those players.
