Goose Goose Duck: All Roles Explained

Goose Goose Duck is a social deduction game like Among Us, or Secret Hitler for my board game lovers, that is growing in popularity. But, unlike those games, Goose Goose Duck makes things more exciting by introducing a myriad of special roles to spice up the game. These roles are optionally added to each game, but here are all of the roles in Goose Goose Duck.

Every Role in Goose Goose Duck Explained

For starters, there is the basic role of either a Goose or a Duck. Much like a crewmate or the imposter, the Geese are the players who are innocent and must work together to vote out the Ducks. The Ducks are fewer in number and need to kill each Goose without them catching on.

Those are the basic roles that every game abides by but the special rules provide much more than just crewmate jobs. Here are all of the special roles for the Ducks and Geese that make Goose Goose Duck very interesting:

All Geese Special Roles

  • Adventurer Goose – You cannot die from the environment.
  • Avenger Goose – If you witness another Goose being murdered, you can kill the murderer temporarily.
  • Birdwatcher Goose – Can see through walls but has limited regular vision.
  • Bodyguard Goose – You are assigned another player to protect. If you stand between them and the killer, you die instead and get a bonus.
  • Canadian Goose – If someone kills you, they will automatically self-report your body.
  • Celebrity Goose – Alerts the other Geese when you are killed.
  • Detective Goose – You can investigate a player once per game to see if they have killed anyone.

  • Cannibal Duck – You can eat a corpse once per game to hide a body.
  • Demolitionist Duck – You plant bombs on other players.

  • Spy Duck – If you are the only one to vote for a player in a meeting, you will learn their role.
  • Undertaker Duck – You can slowly drag bodies to try and hide them.

All Other Bird Special Roles

  • Dodo – You win if you are voted out, so try to act suspiciously.
  • Dueling Dodos – If the other Dodo in the game is killed, you win if you are voted out. You can complete your tasks to be able to kill the other Dodo if they are still alive.

  • Lover Goose/Duck – If you and your lover are the last ones alive, you both win.
  • Pigeon – Transmit a disease to all players before a meeting is called to win.
  • Vulture – Your only objective is to eat the corpse of a murdered Goose.
