Duck Hunt Guide Game A: 1 Duck

How to Play

A duck will fly around the screen for a few moments, then fly away. Shoot it out of the air before it escapes.

  • There are 10 ducks per Round.
  • Black ducks are slow, blue ducks are medium speed and red ducks are fast.
  • You have 3 shots to take out each duck.
  • If you fail to shoot the duck in 3 shots, it will fly away and your dog will laugh at you.
  • You must shoot down a certain number of ducks to qualify for the next Round (see Pass Line).
  • If you do not shoot down enough ducks to qualify for the next round, the game is over.

2-Player Mode

A second player can join in by using the Control Pad to move the ducks while the first player tries to shoot them down.
