Too much murder, not enough '80s hair. [March 2015, p.83]
You get a hollow racing game, a hollow shooter and an overly-simplistic rhythm game. Anyone out for a modern-day Duck Hunt given the whole duck-shooting concept might want to try it out as a curiosity, but not until it gets a 95% price drop.

A group of bearded swamp men enact their own personal holocaust against nature, systematically murdering hundreds of ducks, frogs, and beavers, all with the help of the sociopathic silent protagonist and his almost supernatural gunslinging skills.
Basically, it's like a mashup of Shrek and Metal Gear Solid.

Duck Dynasty the Game is easily one of my favorite games. The imagination of living the life of some of the worlds greatest people is just awesome. I do which that there was more in the game then just killing ducks and boat race though. I give this game a 7/10

It's really not a good game, but that is honestly sort of what makes it enjoyable. Sure, it's just a cash grab for the Duck Dynasty TV show, but it still feels like they put some work into it. Not good, but not really bad either.

Duck Dynasty
So bad it’s kinda good.
Duck Dynasty is an open world hunting game.
It basically puts you inside of a Duck Dynasty episode, complete with cut scenes and voice acting, except for you of course.
You play a mute john luke.
You only say anything when a clip of you from the show is on screen.
The campaign is composed of the same repeating missions.
First of course there is duck hunting, where you do a rhythm based quick time even to call in ducks to end their delicious lives.
This is very twitched based shooting, when they get close you aim, shoot, aim, shoot, and get as many as you can before they all fly away and you call in more.
There’s frog catching to do that can unlock rewards along with finding all 19 road signs and all 7 of sis buried treasure.
You may be surprised or not to hear that collectible finding was my favorite part of the game.
The map is very memorizable, which is kinda refreshing, I felt very much like I was at a park or camp.
There’s fishing to do where you find a hot spot in the lake, throw out your hook, wait for a bait, and work to reel your fish in without snapping your line and a lot of strange sly cooper metal gear solid style sneaking.
This campaign will last you a good 8 to 10 hours, it’s basically like spending an entire work day with the duck dynasty crew, and honestly it feels as such, I was actually immersed into the game and everything going on.
If you’re not impressed yet, I’m sorry jack, but that’s all of the good this game has to offer, because
then then there’s racing, the thing that put me over the edge with my hatred for this game.
This game actually would have gotten a better score had this garbage of a mini game not been included.
For starters there’s no 4, 3, or even 2 player split screen for the tournament, which could’ve made this mode slightly redeemable and fun…
Had there been multiplayer races, it would feel so awfully cheap and unfair.
You both would have to suffer with a racing mode that feels like a mud track, but it’s not here.
There’s nothing redeemable here.
For starters, there are no mechanics here for it to have any business calling it racing
it’s basically find a set path faster than the other 3 characters set path, that’s it.
The 3 characters you quote unquote race all have a ghosted set path, there is no artificial intelligence in the ai, they don’t react or analyze, they just go.
I’m not even sure what to call them, but they aren’t ai.
They are immovable objects that are unfairly aggressive.
If you get in the way of their set path they will bump into you and spin you out every time, while you bumping into them seemingly does nothing.
While they occasionally bump into each other and will 1 out of 100 times run into something themselves, it hardly ever matters, as they are basically in speed boats compared to you, and they make nearly perfect turns.
Unless you get lucky, the bots can and will make no mistakes making trophy grinding massively frustrating.
Races are winnable, but they are no fun, as losing hardly ever feels like your fault.
I’m excellent are racers, simulators and arcade alike, I can appreciate and accept responsibility for my own flaws and miscalculation, here in duck dynasty you are basically punished for getting in the way of 3 bots trying to race.
While I enjoyed my time with most of the game, I can’t find it in myself to recommend duck dynasty to anyone.
If you’re into self-punishment though, why not
For what it is
Hunting 4/10
Overall 4/10

all the game is drive here shoot this thing over here point and shoot no real fun like a other hunting games. animals are put right in front of you then they say shoot. (NO FUN!) other hunting games say hey find this (animal) and be stealthy or else you will have to find it again in this big open world or you have to start over in a big 5km radius. (challenges = fun) (this game = BORING!)
