The art is very endearing, the level design is smart and engaging and the ability to choose different items/upgrades as you progress makes for great replay-ability. Highly recommend this game! ### 5/5 — Ia there a true ending? *2022-12-27, version 1.0* I love this game, it's simple but challenging, and I've already collected all the stars. Is there a true ending to this game? **Developer response:** Thanks for the review! It’s awesome seeing some players fully clearing the game. There isn’t a “true ending” at this point, but I’m hoping to update the game with new content and features (maybe a true ending will be included as well). ### 5/5 — Good game. Ouroboros?? *2022-12-11* People who think it’s too hard, just didn’t play long enough to unlock better upgrades. Fun game. I can’t figure out how to damage Ouroboros at the very end though? Any help?? **Developer response:** Hey it’s awesome that you’ve made it to the final boss! You can destroy the summons it creates throughout the fight to inflict damage. Good luck!💪 ### 5/5 — Very Fun! *2022-12-03* A really lovely, simple little game. Not once did I feel that my failure was anything but a skill issue. Everything has been well-tailored to the unique and intuitive control scheme. **Developer response:** Thanks for trying out M.Duck! Making sure the game felt fair was really important so it’s great to see some players feel that way about it too. ### 5/5 — GREAT GAME *2022-11-22* The game was hard in the beginning but now I’m a goat the games controls just work and the game never gets boring I love ❤️ the graphics like it has like an arcade feel and the enemies are creative also the duck makes a funny feature but the only thing is it’s not a play for hours game but besides that love the game **Developer response:** Aw, thank you! The game/controls can be a little awkward at first, but I’m glad to see that it clicked for you and that you are enjoying the game. I still have some ideas for M.Duck so hopefully I’ll be able to add some new content in the future. Thanks again for playing! ### 5/5 — Fun game with lots of replay opportunities *2022-11-17* This is a really fun gallery shooting game that tests your timing skills. Each level has its own challenges but as you go through each one you get faster and better at anticipating movements. Plus the levels are randomized enough that not every play through is exactly the same. I also like that even when you complete the game, there are lots of other things to unlock and so you’ll want to replay it to see what else you can get. I sometimes give myself handicaps too to really test my skills. Def recommend and hope to see new levels in the future. **Developer response:** Thanks so much for playing - beating the game is no small feat! There are definitely plans for additional content in the future which will hopefully give you plenty of new challenges to tackle. ### 5/5 — A simple, cute, and enjoyable game that you can play for hours *2022-05-01* As someone who has spent hours on this game and unlocked everything, I can honestly say that this game is one of the fun mobile games I’ve ever played. M. Duck incorporates basic roguelike elements with goofy character designs, old school shoot em’ up mechanics, and very creative boss fights to deliver a game with that is highly replayable, casual, and fun. The items provide players with various choices in customizing their build and playstyles to their liking. Although the game is not story-heavy, each item and enemy you fight has their bits of unlockable lore that slowly reveals the silly story of the game as you complete the achievements for each. The bosses and enemy fights get more creative and always add something new as you progress through each wave. If you enjoying a simple, casual, yet semi-challenging game with unlockable achievements that you’ll replay over and over again, I would highly recommend giving M.Duck a try. I hope to see more games of this sort from the developer in the near future. **Developer response:** Hey thanks for the kind words! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. It’s awesome seeing some players clear all of the content! ### 5/5 — Cute and addictive!! *2022-04-28* Just an hour or so in, and it’s amazing! like the title says, it’s as cute as it is addictive. There’s an 8-bit style / arcade-era nostalgia, with really creative touch screen mapping. The animations are adorable and gameplay is quirky yet compelling. GREAT game!! ### 5/5 — Addictive and unique roguelite *2022-04-09, version 1.0* Really addictive and unique roguelite gallery shooter with a cute protagonist and array of colourful enemies. Really simple gameplay (You switch between waddling left and right - and shooting - You intentionally can’t do both at the same time). The unlocks between levels and randomisation of the enemies as well as the simple fluid gameplay keep me coming back. So far I’m still getting quite solidly beaten but I’m also getting further every time... which is what you want from a roguelike. I thought I might need a setting to increase the speed / sensitivity of reticle movement... but no, I’ve got used to it and feels right. Nice to see something so unique! Magic duck gallery shooter roguelike? Why not 😄 ### 5/5 — fun, challenging, cute *2022-04-05* Not your typical mindless swipe or tap game, this game actually demands your attention. After you get used to the controls, it's hard to put down. And that duck is super cute... ### 5/5 — Fun, retro feel! *2022-04-02* It took me a while to get used to it, but once I did… it’s so addictive! Great game and look forward to more from this developer! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 3/5 — good game *2023-01-08* wanted to return the game just because i don’t use it or games much. guess i gotta become a pro now. **Developer response:** Sorry you weren’t able to get a refund, but I hope you end up really enjoying the game on your road to becoming pro! ### 3/5 — Pretty sweet *2022-11-17* It’s as cute and polished as other reviews have said, but it would be so, so much easier to play and pleasant overall if there weren’t a gap between the left and right buttons. Over and over, I’d reach to tap either L or R and would land in the dead zone between both, and which has so far sapped some of charm out of the game for me. Looking forward to future updates! Edit: Not to brag, but I’m playing on my iPhone 12. Best of luck in all your endeavors!! **Developer response:** Hi, I really appreciate the feedback and I’ll definitely look into options to reduce the space between the left and right buttons. Are you playing on tablet by any chance? Thanks so much for trying out M.Duck! ### 4/5 — GREAT GAME BUT… *2024-02-28* Some achievements in the game are insanely hard to get, or essentially impossible. For example, how do you destroy a curse (e.g on the cursed painting or wand) PLEASE HELP! **Developer response:** Hey there! You can unlock the Holy Water by completing Fantome’s challenge in zone 3. It will show up as a possible reward whenever you have a cursed item in your inventory and dispels the curse. Removing curses is definitely the hardest challenge in the game to get. (Forgive me! I’ll probably try to change it if I ever get a chance to update) If you’ve unlocked the weapon genie you can at least start with the cursed wand to have a better chance of getting the Holy Water. Thanks for playing and good luck! ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-06-21* This game in fun and challenging ### 5/5 — Wonderfully cute game with cruel gameplay lol *2026-06-04* I have yet to beat M.Duck but I am dedicated! And I’ve platinum’ed rogue like games like Returnal, Saros, and Nightreign! But truly such a cool and unique game with endearing graphics and a nostalgic feel. The buffs and debuffs keep things interesting and the variety of attacks from enemies keep me on my toes. 5 stars! ### 5/5 — Charming and engrossing *2026-02-12* Fun learning curve to the gameplay and then so much great stuff to unlock. Well-executed roguelike rewards and fantastic levels and monsters. ### 5/5 — Love this game!! *2025-11-30* I’ve had this app for forever and only recently decided to conquer every bit. I only just now beat the game using the green watering can, which was my last star to acquire. Question: are there only 139 points to collect during the game? Or am I missing more? Finding Easter eggs on Reddit threads seem to not exist. Anyhoo…There are bits that are insane to beat, but for the diligent player, they can be conquered. I love the choices of relics we have to play that make it different each game. You quickly figure out which relics work best where. The graphics are cool, as they’re totally reminiscent of the early Atari and NES days. I sure hope you someday will add on extra levels, as it seems to leave it a little open-ended. Pretty please do add on. I know it’s been a while since you first developed the game, but for us diehards, we implore you. 😊 Thanks for a great game! **Developer response:** Thanks for your kind words! Getting all 139 stars is no easy feat and I can confirm that you have accomplished everything in the current version of the game. While I don't have much time to work on M.Duck these days, I've actually recently begun drawing some new content for the game. It might take awhile, but I'm hoping to put together an update that should provide some new challenges and maybe a slightly tweaked ending for collecting all the stars. Thank you so much for playing - I'm glad you enjoyed it! ### 5/5 — A Masterpiece and my favourite iOS game ever *2025-03-13, version 1.0* This game is really one of a kind. Truly easy to pick up but hard to master I hope one day to complete my field notes I’m currently at 128/139. I LOVE THIS GAME ! I can’t think of anyway to make it better I really hope you make more games in the future. Thank you for this gem ❤️🦧 ### 5/5 — really very good game *2025-02-21* This was a very great game, I love the art style! I'm writing this after I 100%ed the game. When I was bored I always played this game, I'm sad it has to end. One of my favorite games!!! Also could you add an ending when you get all stars? **Developer response:** Thank you for the review! I’m so glad you enjoyed the game! Hopefully I’ll be able to update it sometime to add some new content and maybe a new ending for 100% completion as well ### 5/5 — Incredible Game *2024-12-14* This is truly one of the best mobile games I have ever played. I have put hundreds of hours into this game, unlocked everything there is to unlock, and I still find new and fun strategies to break the game. It has amazing charm, depth, strategy, and replayability. I cannot recommend this game enough! **Developer response:** Thanks so much for the review! I’m really glad you were able to enjoy the game so much. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to add some new content for you and others to explore ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fantastic Underrated game! *2024-01-26, version 1.0* This deserves more, yet people would rather play Garden Scapes 😑 ### 5/5 — Best iOS game made *2023-06-17, version 1.0* Thoroughly enjoyed this game. Took me playing for 2 weeks twice, 6 months apart, to finally win. Truly a well-balanced game. ### 5/5 — Wonderful Little Game *2023-05-01* The Titan boss is crazy hard tho! **Developer response:** Hi, thanks so much for trying out the game! The Titan can definitely be a bit challenging at first, but if you take it slowly and manage your spacing you'll get him in no time (assuming you haven't already taken him down). --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
