Duck Life 1 is a faithful remaster of the original Flash game phenomenon played over 200 million times online. Previously part of the Duck Life Retro Pack, it's now available as a standalone title with quality-of-life upgrades—no browser, no plugins. RAISE YOUR CHAMPION A tornado has destroyed your farm, leaving only a single duck egg behind. Hatch your duckling and train it into the ultimate racing champion to earn money and rebuild the farm. Feed your duck with energy seeds, train its skills, and watch it grow stronger with each session. Personalise your feathered athlete with fun hats and colours you collect along the way, making your champion duck truly your own. TRAINING MINI-GAMES Hone your duck’s abilities through fast-paced training mini-games in Running, Flying, and Swimming. Dodge obstacles and collect coins as you train—the more you play, the faster and stronger your duck becomes. Smart resource management is key: use the coins you earn to buy better feed and boost your duck’s energy before the big races. RACES & VICTORY Enter your duck into races and watch your preparation pay off. Sit back and cheer as your duck sprints, flies, and swims past the competition. Progress through increasingly tough races and ultimately take on the final championship event. MODERN FEATURES - Remastered HD graphics - Smooth 60 FPS gameplay - Touchscreen controls with optional haptics - Save states and multiple save slots

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: MouseBot at 1.2K against Duck Life 1's 32. On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence 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. MouseBot sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Duck Life 1 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for MouseBot against 4.4 for Duck Life 1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MouseBot has 1.2K ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 85% of MouseBot's written reviews are positive against 91% of Duck Life 1's.
MouseBot ships an update every 4 months, Duck Life 1 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
