In this quirky mystery, players must navigate a modular \"Cruise Ship\" board to track down a series of elusive, themed ducks that have been hidden in plain sight. This edition focuses on \"visual scouting,\" where you’ll use specialized \"Binocular\" cards to peek at hidden locations while trying to deduce which passenger—from the Captain to the stowaway—is responsible for the latest duck-related prank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the lighthearted theme, this version features a unique \"Waddle\" movement system and a \"Duck Log\" that tracks your discoveries.
