Quack Quack Attack beta lets players test HAOPLAY's duck ark adventure

Quack Quack Attack’s beta is live through May 29, but the wipe makes it more of a launch sampler than a long-term head start.

Quack Quack Attack opened its closed beta on May 21 and keeps it running through May 29, giving mobile players a short window to decide whether HAOPLAY’s duck-led puzzle shooter is more than another cute-board curiosity. The June 11 launch on iOS and Android is already set, so this test is less about building a permanent head start and more about seeing whether the game’s ricochet-first combat has enough snap to stand out.

The pitch is unusual enough to notice. Players control Captain Quack, a duck captain steering a magical ark across an ocean world overrun by monsters, then use a pachinko-style board to fire eggs, guide birds, and chain hits from enemy to enemy. HAOPLAY calls it an “addictive ricochet” title, while the App Store labels it a “Peggle Puzzle Shooter,” which is the cleaner way to read the hook: this is about angled shots, board geometry, and clearing a screen in one clean run, not about traditional match-3 grinding.

That mechanical frame matters because the rest of the beta is built to push commitment, not permanence. More than fifty super-powered avian companions are available to recruit, so collection and crew-building look like a serious progression lane rather than decoration. Daily logins during the beta can earn S-Class Hero Choice Packs and God King Eggs, and players who clear the final beta level unlock an exclusive title, The Tested. The official materials for the closed beta list the build as version 1.3.14, which gives testers a concrete snapshot of where the game stood before launch.

The catch is that the preview is intentionally temporary. HAOPLAY says all save data will be wiped after the beta, and purchases made during the test will be refunded later at a higher in-game rate. That makes this feel closer to a structured soft launch than an early-access grind: useful if you want the rewards, the title, and an early read on the core loop, but not something that carries real long-term upside into June.

The broader launch setup backs that up. The App Store listing pegs Quack Quack Attack for June 11, 2026, gives it a 13+ rating, and says it supports English plus 13 additional languages, which points to a wide international rollout. HAOPLAY is putting it alongside Blue Protocol: Star Resonance, Girls’ Frontline 2: Exilium, Metal Slug: Awakening, and Reverse: 1999 in its global portfolio, so this beta is doing the same job as the rest of that slate: proving the hook before the install push lands.
