How to play Duck Dash

A fox ran off with Mama Duck, and her duckling is running after them. The duckling runs on its own. Your only job is to jump, and to jump at the right moment.

• Jump: press Space, the up arrow or W, click, tap the course, or press A on a controller.
• Higher or lower: hold the button for a full jump, or tap it for a short hop.
• Flap: press again in the air to flap once. It gives you a little extra height and distance, enough to cross the widest gaps.
• Bread: pick up the slices along the way. They don’t change your distance, but see how many you can grab.
• The run ends if you fall into a gap, run into the side of an island or hit a rock.

Endless gives you a new course every run. The Daily course is the same for everyone and changes at midnight. Try it as often as you like and share your best.

Tips

• Jump late, close to the edge. The further along the island you take off, the more of the gap is behind you when you land.
• Save the flap. If you flap straight away there’s nothing left for a jump that falls short.
• When the next island is higher, jump a little early so you clear its edge instead of hitting its side.
• The duckling speeds up the further you go, so gaps you could hop at the start need a full jump later on.
• Short islands come in a row. Tap for short hops rather than full jumps so you don’t overshoot.

Questions

Is it free? Yes. No account, no download, nothing to pay for.

Is every gap possible? Yes. Every course is checked: a full jump, plus a flap where needed, always gets you across.

Where is my best distance saved? In your browser on this device, along with your daily results. Clearing your site data resets them.

Can I play on a phone? Yes. Tap anywhere on the course to jump. It plays best with the phone held sideways.

What does the dashed line mean? That’s your best distance so far (today’s best on the daily course).
