Any questions?
What is Duck the Rules?
Duck the Rules: Schoolyard Rebellion is a school detective game. The Deputy Head, a duck in a black suit, keeps pinning up bans, and every ban means somebody has already broken it. You repeat the prank, find what the prankster left behind and work out who it was. It's an indie game, in development now.
How do you find the prankster?
You pull the banned prank yourself and look at the spot: a note with a class on it, wet footprints, a hair. Every trace goes into your notebook. Study your classmates for the same details, cross the innocent off the wall in your hideout, then find the one who's left and hand them the Duck's sticker. You have one school week, and a wrong guess ends your day.
What can you do in the game?
Pull the pranks yourself: tag the walls and the bathroom stalls with markers, flood the bathroom, shove the desks around, throw paper balls, grab anything that isn't nailed down, ride a bike or a skateboard through the halls and wind up your classmates.
How do you get caught?
A counter at the top of the screen shows how many people can see you. The janitor and the Deputy Head patrol the school. If they catch you mid-prank, it doesn't count and you're taken to the Deputy Head; try again when nobody's watching.
What kind of game is it?
A school detective sandbox: you walk around the school freely, with physics, a little stealth and a lot of pranks, and every prank is a clue. The camera follows your character from behind, like in GTA, and moves into their eyes when you grab or draw something.
When can I play it?
The demo is planned for December 1, 2026. Join the waitlist and you'll get one email when it's out.
Who's in the class?
Twenty-two classmates, and every one of them is a suspect: Ace, Rocker, Nerd, Techie, Gamer, Dandy, Sport, Joker, Shy, Skater, Goth, Why-Kid, Art, Fidget, Dream, Drama Queen, Glam, Ballerina, Punk, Chatterbox, Collector and Rebel.
