A little rubber duck slips out of Finn's hands at Lake Itasca, Minnesota, and the mighty Mississippi carries it away. Can you steer it all 2,340 miles to the Gulf of Mexico and bring it home? Oh Duck! is a cheerful river-running adventure built in a bright, blocky voxel world. Drag (or tilt) to steer, double-tap to burst past trouble, and keep your eyes open: there are lost ducks floating all along the river, and every one you rescue joins your conga line. FLOAT THE WHOLE RIVER 62 real river towns, from Bemidji, Minnesota to Venice, Louisiana, each a little harder than the last: - The Headwaters at Lake Itasca, where the river is a tiny creek - St. Anthony Falls in Minneapolis, the only true waterfall on the river - Main Street towns, downtown skylines, busy ports, historic river towns and bayou fishing villages - Day, sunrise, sunset, dusk and starry nights, with glowing windows, neon casino boats and riverside lamps - Lock & dams, the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Memphis bluffs and Gator Bayou - Crescent City, New Orleans, where neon and jazz light the water - Home Sweet Home on the Gulf of Mexico, where Finn is waiting RESCUE LOST DUCKS Scoop up ducks along the way and they follow you in a wobbly conga line. Bump into a rock or a barge and the last duck gets knocked loose, so be quick to catch it again! Rescue every duck in a level to earn three stars. Stars open the way down the river, and in the big landmark stops they also unlock a secret duck skin. DODGE EVERYTHING Rocks, logs, buoys, barges, steamboats, canoes, whirlpools, snapping gators, jumping catfish and waterfalls all want a piece of your duck. You have three hearts in every level. Grab a Life Ring to block a hit, a Magnet to pull in the bread, or a Boost to zoom ahead. When you see bubbles in the bayou, DASH! DRESS UP YOUR DUCK Collect bread along the river and spend it in the Wardrobe. There are 27 duck skins, from Classic Yellow to Mallard, Moo Duck, Zombie, Lava, Galaxy and Solid Gold, plus 16 silly hats including a Riverboat Captain cap, a Viking helmet, a Mardi Gras Jester hat, a Propeller Cap and a Royal Crown. Mix and match to make your own duck. MADE FOR EVERYONE - Free to play. Every skin and hat can be earned with bread you collect by playing - Ads are kept family friendly: they are always child-directed and never personalized - Optional reward ads: watch one if you want 2x bread, an extra heart or a free loaf of bread - A one-time Remove Ads purchase turns off the top banner and the ads between levels - No account or sign-in needed - Play in portrait with one thumb (drag or tilt to steer, double-tap to dash) or in landscape - The game plays offline (ads need an internet connection) - Easy to pick up, fun to master: perfect for a quick trip down the river or a long float - Touch controls, plus full game controller support with rumble and haptic feedback on iPhone - Original music for every region, written for the game Grab your duck and get floating. Finn is counting on you!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Oh Duck at 5.0 against Duck Roll's 4.3. Oh Duck also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Duck Roll's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 64 months) and ratings volume (46 vs 6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Oh Duck sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Duck Roll sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Oh Duck holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Duck Roll has 46 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Oh Duck's written reviews are positive against 74% of Duck Roll's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Oh Duck ships an update every 64 months, Duck Roll every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
