Valkyrie Initiative and Duck Team have announced that DUCK: Dangerous Ultimate Cartridge Kidnapper — a fast-paced compilation of 100 bite-size microgames — has launched on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox with a limited-time 15% launch discount. DUCK is a fast-paced collection of 100 bite-size microgames inspired by classic NES-era titles and wrapped in tongue-in-cheek pixel art.
STORY:
A group of ducklings finds a mysterious 100-in-1 cartridge that turns out to be a trap for an evil spirit who calls himself D.U.C.K. Now the ducklings will have to show all their gamer skills, or else the villain will fulfill the curse and make them characters in his games. Becoming two-dimensional and pixelated — constantly dying and respawning — is an inevitable fate!
