About

Tiny Ducks

Features
Read full description

Tiny Ducks is an Apple Watch idle game about repopulating the world, one step at a time. The duck population collapsed. You found the last breeding pair. Your job: walk, hatch, discover new breeds through genetic mutation, and grow your flock until the planet is covered in ducks. How it works: Choose a breeding pair — mother + father from your Duckbook Walk. Every step hatches an egg. Check your watch. See your new ducks. Maybe discover a mutation — a new breed with real-time shader effects. Swap fathers to steer genetics. The mother is locked until you migrate. Walking with the same mother for a long time gives you a permanent boost to that family of ducks. When growth slows, migrate: release your ducks into the wild, convert population to golden eggs, and upgrade your nest. Start over. Faster. Bigger.
