Fox vs Duck - GameClub

I bought Fox vs. Duck for a few bucks...probably six years ago, when I was still on my parents’ iTunes account. I have my own now, and just remembered this game and decided to look it up to see whether it stood the test of time. Whether or not it does, I’ll never know. Turns out, it got bought out. It’s definitely not free, but you can’t just buy it either—you have to pay for a monthly subscription to something called “GameClub,” presumably for limited access to a bunch of other games you’ll never realistically play. Another big win for rent-seeking behavior—who wants to own the games they enjoy anyway, when you could keep paying for them indefinitely instead? Ah, well; it is what it is. Pour one out for this fun little game—it was nice while it lasted.

Fun little game. It's interesting how the pond changes, keeps things different. The pickups are nice too. Keep up the good work.

There is more to this than meets the eye! Okay, no need to describe play as it has already been well documented but here are some other bits that impressed the Hell out of me in this seemingly simplistic game. 1) The obstacles in the pond are much more than eye-candy! The rocks stop you dead in your tracks while lily pads will greatly slow you down if you get snagged by them. Heck, even the little school of minnows effects your movement. 2) Saving ducks is not the only way to go. You can also try to make your way as the ultimate duck massacrer which isn't as simple as it sounds. Letting a duck get killed is simple enough but without gaining extra lives or time (depending which mode you're playing), senseless killing will only net you so many. 3) Your final ratio of saved to killed ducks will get your session a title. What is "Warm Duck" vs. "Duck Massacre"?

Until I downloaded the iPod touch 4.0 update, this was a very enjoyable and fun game. Now I can't get the game to come up when I hit the app button on the home screen. PLEASE fix this ASAP!!!!

I bought this game out of the buzz the developer created with the teaser and in Twitter, boy was I disappointed... Controls are non responsive and the game has no replay value whatsoever. I can imagine hundreds of better apps were to spend my money. I don't even want to think where those 5 star reviews came from.

First off let me say that I LOVE THE GRAPHICS, but that love quickly dies because it gets too repetative. I'm wondering what the mouse is used for, and I would like to play as the fox. The name is FOX vs. DUCK si shouldnt we be able to play from both perspectives. This gane definitely need some improvement. Other than that jeep it up. I expect great things from this gane.

Strange game - 1) first page is not natural to navigate, feels like most the page wasted and then some small text to click on to launch the game 2) the ducks don't look much like ducks 3) koi do not eat ducks in the real world! should be aligators or snapping turtles or something like that 3) the game rapidly gets too fast and the ducks all die. Play for maybe 1-3 minutes and end of game.

The game is beautiful, in terms of graphical appeal. The sensitivity on the tilt controls is pretty bad. I also think there should be a custom mode, where you could add or remove obstacles such as rocks, the duck-eating fish, etc.

It is an ok game. Visually it is done very well. gets a little boring though.

I'll just come out and say I love the artwork for this game, it's creative and original. What I don't really like is how repetitive this game can be. It's just duck after duck after duck. If a new update included some different game modes to change up the gameplay a little, I would give this game a higher rating.
