Duck Master app guide

The Duck Master app has been fully released, which means it's time to dive into the full game and its mechanics.

To launch the app, don’t forget to complete two simple steps:

1. Clear your Telegram cache.
2. In the @duckmaster_game_bot, enter the command /start.

Welcome to the Duck Master app start screen!

On the main screen (the "Career" tab), we are greeted by the main character — a trader duck, with whom we will go from an ordinary worker on the streets to the king of a financial empire.

Here we can see:

1. Hero's balance

This is all your financial resources, which you receive from:

• Trading (the "Trading" tab);
• Inviting new users;
• Your friends' trading.

These finances are necessary for upgrading the cards in your collection, provided you have enough cards.

2. Hourly income

Everyone starts small, and to earn your first income, you need to get your hero a job. Cards that you add to your deck will help with this.

Don't forget that profit per hour is the parameter that will help you not only level up, but also progress through the game's storyline.

Important! To activate a card, you must place it in your deck.

3. Settings Menu

Choose the appropriate language to make the game easier and clearer. If you find any typos or discrepancies, please inform us directly by clicking the "Support" button in the settings, and we will promptly address the issue.

You can also always read the game guide here if you wish to refresh your knowledge or learn more about the game's aspects or mechanics.

4. Trader duck level (arena)

Every successful person started from the bottom, and your first level is Streets of the City.

As your passive income grows, so will your level.

On this screen, you can see:

1. Required Passive Income for Level Up: This shows how much you need to earn per hour to reach the next level. For example, to reach level 19, you’ll need a passive income of at least $44890/hour.
2. Next Level Cards: Discover which cards will become available at the next level (they can be unlocked in "Trading" mode). Tap a card to view its rarity and bonuses.

Level-Up Bonuses: With each new level, you’ll receive various bonuses, such as access to Slot Multipliers in Trading mode, increased maximum energy and faster energy regeneration.

Remember that passive income only works for eight hours, after which you will need to log back into the game.

5) Play button

This takes you to the "Trading" section.

6) Your current deck

Here is your current set of cards. You can change it in the "Cards" tab or on the main "Career" screen.

If you're new and have received a new card but haven't added it to your deck, a special animation will remind you. Cards in the deck activate their bonuses, but if a card isn’t added, its bonuses won’t apply. Exceptions include the "Best Friend" and "Financial Genius" cards, whose bonuses always apply, regardless of their placement in the deck.

"Trade" tab

The market is unpredictable—you never know what will happen today; all you can do is hope that luck is on your side. In trading, only 30% of spins will be successful (you will receive either money, cards, or additional energy).

Initially, every player has a maximum energy of 30 units. The "Best Friend" card adds extra energy, giving an advantage to those who joined the early version of the project. Your maximum energy capacity will increase as your hero levels up.

Leverage is a button that multiplies your winnings by a chosen value (from 1 to 5) and consumes a corresponding amount of energy. However, leverage options become available as you reach new hero levels. Until level 6, only x1 leverage is accessible.

With the latest update, a new feature has been added — Auto Trade. Now, if you don’t want to spin the wheel manually, simply press and hold the "Trade" button in the center of the screen for a few seconds, and the game will start spinning for you.

For certain slot combinations, you’ll receive instant rewards in the form of $, energy, or new cards:

• If "Long" or "Short" appears in the first trading slot, you’ll receive a cash reward.
• If a combination of three cards (the card icon with a question mark) appears, you’ll win a valuable prize — a new card.
• Collecting a combination of three lightning symbols will restore energy for new spins (10 energy at x1).

Please note that there are now combinations with negative effects!

• If you get 3 Margin Calls (red crosses) in a row, you will lose 90% of your current balance! However, you can save your balance by posting a story on Telegram.
• A combination of 3 Stop Losses (yellow signs) will deduct a small portion of your profits.
• When you obtain new cards or hit a combination of three Longs or Shorts, you’ll have the option to share it in your stories once a day and receive double the reward!

Remember that you can increase the chance of a card of a certain rarity by using cards in your deck.

It’s important to understand that two different events occur:

1. The appearance of a three-card combination in Trading.
2. The rarity of the card you receive.

The first event has a fixed probability (X), which you cannot influence. However, you can affect the second event by adding cards to your deck that increase the likelihood of drawing, for example, a green card, thereby improving your chances of getting that rarity.

Let’s break this down using two cards as examples: "Wife" and "Mistress." To see which rarity they affect, just look at their descriptions (highlighted with a red border).

The circle on the “Wife” card is green, which means it increases the chance of green (uncommon) cards appearing. The circle on the “Mistress” card is blue, indicating it boosts the chance of blue (rare) cards.

Every trader needs a break. When your energy runs out, you can either wait for it to restore (by default, that's 5 units of energy every 60 minutes) or purchase more using stars by pressing the “+” button. If you’re unsure where to get stars in Telegram, be sure to check out our guide.

The amount of energy and the rate at which it regenerates depend on your hero's level.

After a successful trading session, it's a great idea to evaluate your earnings or share your achievements with friends! Just click on the phone icon (see the screenshot) and create a stunning story—just like you actually closed a major deal on the stock market!

This is your chance to invite friends on an exciting financial adventure. Together, you can conquer new heights, earn more, and share your victories. Don’t miss the opportunity to become a leader among your friends!

"Cards" tab

Here, you can build a deck that will affect your gameplay. Build your strategy wisely.

The deck consists of 4 cards of different types, each activating specific bonuses:

1. Job — generates passive income in $/hour;
2. Trading — generates passive income in $/hour;
3. Chill — provides unique bonuses or increases the chances of drawing rare cards and receiving rewards;
4. Special cards — provide unique bonuses or increase the chances of drawing rare cards and rewards.

Only one card of each type can be in the deck at a time. If a card of that type is already in the deck, pressing "Add to Deck" will replace the old card with the new one.

If you already have a card of one type in your deck, but a stronger version of the same type is available in your collection, special icons will appear (see screenshot above). The game now helps you find better options—making it easier and more enjoyable! And if you want to sort the cards in your collection by rarity, simply press the special button (see screenshot below).

You can swap cards at any time. Simply select a card of the same type and press "Add to Deck."

If you want to learn more about the cards available in the game and the bonuses they offer, just tap on them. You'll see their rarity and the bonuses they provide.

What information can we get by clicking on a card:

1. The card's name;
2. Its rarity: grey — common, green — uncommon, blue — rare, purple — epic, gold — legendary;
3. The card's level;
4. The number of available and required cards to level up;
5. The cost to upgrade the card;
6. The bonus the card provides;
7. Its type.
8. Description and history of the card (game lore).

“Friends” tab

Want to earn faster and easier? Share your referral link with friends and rise together to the heights of financial success! Click on the “Share” icon (see the screenshot) and post your story directly in Telegram. Let everyone see how you’re moving towards success! With your friends, your bonuses and earnings will grow even faster!

Now, by inviting new friends, you can earn and level up the “Financial Genius” card! Created by one of our users in the “Design Your Card” contest and selected by popular vote, this card increases rewards for every friend you refer. Its bonus percentage grows with each level of the card. Plus, you don’t need to add this card to your deck — the bonus is applied automatically!

There are two types of referrals:

1. Level 1 Referrals — those who accessed the app through your personal link. For each of them, you earn $10,000 and then 5% of their profits in the "Trade" section.
2. Level 2 Referrals — people invited by your friends (level 1 referrals). For each of them, you earn $1,000 immediately and 0.5% of their profits.

The percentages from referral winnings come from each of their winnings in "Trade." In the friends list, only level 1 referrals are visible, sorted by duck level and current balance.

"Tasks" tab

Every successful investor seizes the opportunity to earn. Complete simple tasks to receive additional rewards.

Keep in mind: the fixed reward for inviting referrals is granted only when they enter the game for the first time. You'll receive a percentage of their winnings each time they win in "Trading." The friends list shows only 1st-level referrals, sorted by their duck level and current balance.

Daily quests are now available in the game! Just go to the "Daily" tab and collect your reward. Remember, you’ll be able to claim your next reward only the following day, and a special animation will remind you when it’s time.

It's important to remember that the cash reward will always increase as your level rises. And on the seventh day, a truly valuable prize awaits you: you'll be able to choose ANY card from your current arena!
