About Where the Duck

We're on a mission to transform everyday spaces into playgrounds of discovery, one duck at a time.

Founded in 2024, Where the Duck started with a simple idea: what if exploring your city could be as exciting as a treasure hunt? We combined NFC technology with the thrill of discovery to create a real-world adventure game that brings communities together.

Our Mission

To inspire people to explore their surroundings, connect with their communities, and rediscover the joy of adventure in everyday life.

Every duck you find is part of a larger story - a story about curiosity, community, and the magic that happens when people venture outside their usual routines. We're building more than a game; we're creating a movement that celebrates exploration and brings people together through shared adventures.

Our Values

These principles guide everything we do, from designing new features to hiding ducks in your neighborhood.

Community First

We believe in building connections and bringing people together through adventure and exploration.

Innovation & Fun

We combine cutting-edge technology with playful experiences to create unforgettable moments.

Local Exploration

We help people discover hidden gems in their own cities and appreciate the world around them.

Inclusive Adventure

Our game is designed for everyone - from casual explorers to dedicated treasure hunters.

The Team

We're a small but passionate team of adventurers, technologists, and game designers based in Sacramento, California. What started as a weekend project has grown into a global community of duck hunters.

When we're not hiding ducks or building new features, you can find us exploring local parks, testing new locations, and dreaming up the next big adventure for our community.
