See you in outer space!
Abducktion started in a very simple way — we wanted to make a game for grownups (and smart kids) that took only 15-20 minutes to play, just two minutes to explain but was still strategic and competitive enough to make beating your friends, and family still feel really, really good.
- Easy to learn: A 15-25 minute, light strategy game for adults
- Adorably 3D: Comes with 80 plastic ducks and silicone storage UFO
Abducktion
A Weirdly Strategic Duck Kidnapping Game
Abducktion players are all interns on a UFO, working for an intergalactic corporation with one main function: abducting ducks!
(For research purposes, duh).
Abducktion is perfect for a weirdly addictive game that's perfect for playing over the breakfast table or for kicking off a game night!
Each game comes with the following:
- 80 High Quality Plastic Ducks
- Silicone Flexbile UFO
- 4 Player Boards
- Action Cards Deck
- Formation Cards Deck
Introducing, Abducktion!
Abducktion is a game for grownups (and smart kids) that takes only 15-25 minutes to play but is still strategic enough to make winning feel really, really good.
Ducks need to be abducted in specific formations, and you'll take turns using spatial logic and cunning to rearrange your ducks before your opponents to win!
Easy to learn, but surprisingly competitive!
3D Silicone UFO? Yep.
A game about abducting ducks needs a spaceship — you'll use the flexible UFO to store your ducks and shake 'em up before each turn.
"My favorite is that silly spaceship. I get so excited when I get to hold it, and I am mad if it is my turn and someone has not passed it to me yet."
15-Minute Games
Delightfully quick games for couples to play over the breakfast table or with a group at the beginning of game night.
"My boyfriend and I... loved the strategy and enjoy a game that plays well at two players. The spatial reasoning is super fun aspect, and I can't wait to play more!"
Surprisingly Strategic
Easy to learn, but expertly rearranging your ducks to win requires Tetris-like logic and thinking ahead.
"So much fun! The directions are very easy to understand, but the game play is challenging. Definitely a game for people who enjoy strategy."
Meet the IntergalacDuck Research Expansion!
Ready to expand Abducktion?

Had this game pop up on my Instagram feed for a couple of months and when it went on sale here I figured why not?It arrived today and my husband and I decided to play it since the power went out and it's pretty fun. We have two kids who are a couple years apart and can't wait to play it with them.It's quick, easier than expected to play and I like the fact you can screw with other players and I just really like the ducks lol

This has become our family's favorite game! The little ducks are so cute, and the UFO Shaker is adorable. The game is quick and easy to learn, and everyone can play. However, there is so much strategy to it that it is also fun for advanced players. The combination of luck and strategy makes it a game that the entire family can play and enjoy.

This was a Christmas gift and so fun to play. You do really need to think through your moves, plan ahead! We had a great time playing this and look forward to playing again. The parts are very good quality and the little ducks so cute and true in color. A great value for the money spent.

OK, I thought maybe this was a gimmick game. Super cute with all those little duckies and the UFO to hold them. And, it is a bit pricey, although I could argue that it is in the pricerange for this level of game design.But, then we played it. So much fun! And surprisingly, many strategic options to play. It didn't take long to learn how to play and the rules are clear while having options without being too complicated. For the two of us a game was about 15-20 minutes. We played 3 or 4 games on our first go round. We both think it would be better play with more players, giving more options for impacting your opponent'sgame to give your play a little advantage.

This game is spectacularly fun! But don't take the fact that it has a cute spaceship filled with little tiny ducks fool you. Yes, this game is super-fun, and really easy to learn. Children and adults can certainly play it together... but it will take quite a while to master. Strategy, planning, and watching other players are all necessary skills for play. Equally necessary is a great sense of humor. This game produced some wonderful laughter around our table. I loved the little notes on the bottom of each card... and the instruction book was highly entertaining, which made the learning process easy and fun. So, to recap... a super-cute, fun to play, challenging to master, laughter inducing game with DUCKS! I'd say it checks off all the boxes, and then some.

Saw the game on social media and it looked very different and fun. Purchased for family christmas game. Learned quick enough but the young adults caught on in seconds. Purchased the expansion pack as well. Definitely recommend including as the more challenging cards add to the strategy. Expensive game but well worth it. Play almost nightly with just the husband and myself.

We play a lot of board games and have used this on game nights a few times now. Everyone is loving how cute the game is. We like that it involves some strategy and thought (which cards to play in what order) and not just luck (pulling ducks from the spaceship randomly and drawing cards still do involve luck though). With the expansion can play 6. Doesn’t take extraordinarily long to play and is easy to teach new players how to play. Was initially going to get from the developer directly but with the Canada post strike before Christmas the worry was receiving it on time. Ended up buying through Amazon due to guaranteed arrival and price-wise was no different. Felt game was a bit expensive but ended up with no regrets buying it. Friends are asking where I got it and want to play it again with us.

This game is gorgeously designed and such fun! A lovely 2-person game plus an expansion pack for a great value all in one box. We learned how to play in just one round. The duck storage is so well designed!!

This is a fun game and very aesthetically pleasing. The art work is beautiful and the ducks are fun. The game isn't super easy to play, as like many games, there are a lot of directions to read before understanding how to play. My kids and I love it, but we are a thinking bunch who like a challenge and don't mind a complex game. Santa brought this game for Christmas, and we have played it quite a number of times with a bunch of different family members and friends. Not everyone loves it. It is very complex, there is a bit of set up, and there is a lot of reading especially on understanding what you can do with each action card.The object of the game is to create specified patterns with colored ducks to get points. The person with the most points at the end of the game wins. The game ends when the number of pattern cards you choose to use are completed. A simple concept, and a valid game. The difficulty comes in with moving the ducks into the desired pattern. You pick ducks out of the spaceship (which is super fun and cute!!) to use. Trying to achieve the patterns can be frustrating. My sister hates this game as she didn't like having to think for fun and gets frustrated. My sons love it as does my niece. The downsides of this game are that it is not really interactive and it can be slow as each person has to take what can be a lot of time on their turn to try to get their ducks into the pattern with the most points. Sometimes there is also confusion on how the ducks can be moved using the drawn action card. The game can take a long time and can be slow moving.Despite this, we love this game and continue to play it. It is a great game for people who like patterns, spatial manipulation, and involved, thoughtful games! Plus it is a beautifully put together game with nice artwork and hilarious wording. And also, who doesn't love cute mini ducks!!

The combination of alien abductions and ducks is hilariously creative, and the gameplay is easy to learn while still offering plenty of strategy. It’s perfect for players of all ages. The artwork on the cards is colorful and charming, and the whole experience is packed with fun. If you're looking for a lighthearted, unique game that guarantees fun, Abducktion is a fantastic pick!

We played this game at a local game cafe earlier this year and liked it so much that I bought it as a gift for my husband. In Abducktion, you try to make patterns of ducks on your board based on pattern cards visible to everyone. In your hand, you have three cards that allow you specific ways to manipulate the order of the ducks. When the game is over and all twelve pattern cards are claimed, you count up points to find the winner.The ducks in this game are charming--they remind me of tiny plastic "rubber duckies," and they're fun to pull in and out of the silicone spacecraft. The cards also have humorous, quirky drawings of ducks being teleported, orbiting, being sucked into a worm hole, etc.Beyond the charm, however, is a thinky game for folks who like spatial puzzles (think Azul, Sagrada, or Calico) and planning a couple steps ahead. It's a relatively quick game, which is a nice change of pace from some longer games we play, but it also has some strategic substance to it. It's also a game our whole family can play.
