This fabulous free PC content update introduces the wizards tower into the flock. In this mysterious building, you'll find the mighty Wizard Duck. If you donate him enough materials, he can transform the look of your flock environment! Bored of the grassy pastures? Why not turn your flock into a beach? Or how about a volcano area with a lava river? Your flock will never look the same again! The Duck Life 9: The Flock free content update is now live for PC, and fans can try the game with the free PC demo available on the Steam page.
The Duck Life franchise started back in 2010 as a flash game released on the Newgrounds and Kongregate game portals. It quickly gained popularity, being hosted by hundreds of websites and picking up over 200 million plays over its lifetime. The original game involved training up a duck in running, swimming and flying and then entering it in races - all to become the champion of duck racing. Over the next 14 years, Duck Life has continued to evolve and found new homes and fans on PC, mobile (in partnership with MAD.com), Nintendo Switch and Xbox platforms.
About Duck Life 9: The Flock
Welcome to the newest chapter of the Duck Life series, Duck Life 9: The Flock, where the ducks are still finding new ways to do what they do best - honing their skills and racing their way to the top! Touch down on the tropical archipelago of Featherhaven Island and set up shop in your own little town, ready to rise up the ranks and become the fastest flock there is!
Different Duck stats - Get ready to cultivate the most talented bunch of ducks any farmer has ever had! Start your flock from selection of different eggs, each with unique skill bonuses that affect how well they can utilise their skill levels during races. But let's not get ahead of ourselves, before we hotfoot it to the races it's time to get your newly-hatched duck to grips with some training!
Training - Becoming the champion won't be easy, though, as this is hardly a simple matter of training alone. Feed and clothe your ducks to help boost their stats, and then race every challenger you can find! The island itself is filled with many tricky tasks to overcome, and without fully exploring each of the 9 areas that surround your humble settlement, you won't stand a chance against the mysterious challenger that looms atop the volcano...
9 Island locations - Discover an expansive, vibrant new 3D world sporting luscious meadows, dazzling crystal plains, a floating city and much more. As your ducks broaden their horizons, you mustn't be afraid to delve a little deeper and discover the secrets that these areas hide, from jelly coins to buried treasure - you never know what could be lurking around each and every corner!
Build your town - As your ambitions grow, so does your flock. Over time you can take your home from a humble campsite to a fully-fledged village, sporting shops, housing, decorations and other interconnected systems that allow the inhabitants to talk to each other and level up their skills. Start your own farm to have more food and drink to go around, or create a town square where learned ducks can stand atop a soapbox and impart their knowledge - it's up to you!
Become the tournament champion - Filling your flock with a rich mix of feathered friends will help to strengthen the overall group. It's going to be a team effort if you want to topple the competition! Use your best swimmers for the swimming leg of the race, and your best climbers for the mountainous peaks. You're only as good as your worst player, so remember to treat all of your ducks with care, and you'll surely see the fruits of your efforts blossom into a truly remarkable team of ducks!
