Turbo Duck takes flight in Stakelogic’s newest release
Feathers fly as a fearless duck dukes it out in a cyberpunk arcade in this exhilarating video slot!
Stakelogic has released its most action-packed slot to date with Turbo Duck, a high-octane title that blends intense gameplay with cinematic visuals and a winged hero who refuses to back down.
Set in a post-apocalyptic retro arcade, Turbo Duck follows Quack-9, a fearless duck mecha-pilot ready for action. As the gameplay unfolds, players join Quack-9 in the fight for control and massive multipliers.
Played across a 5-reel, 4-row grid with 15 fixed paylines, the game introduces a mix of Mystery Wilds, instant-win multipliers and three escalating Bonus Game modes.
Mystery Symbols land on reels 2 and 4, revealing either a Blue Wild, a Red Multiplier Wild up to 10x, or directional arrows that place additional Wilds nearby. During Free Spins, Blue Wilds can also award +2 extra Free Spins.
Landing three Bonus Symbols triggers 10 Free Spins and activates the Bonus Wheel, which determines one of three Free Spin variants: Bonus, Mega or Ultra. Each mode increases win potential through higher multiplier frequency and persistent Mystery Symbols. The most volatile mode, Ultra, removes all low-value multipliers and guarantees one high-value multiplier on every spin.
Multiplier Symbols appear in three tiers: Blue (2x–50x), Green (5x–100x), and Red (5x–500x with MAX WIN potential) and award instant prizes based on the base bet. The Turbo Blast feature, which can trigger on any spin, sees one to three multipliers onto the reels, with at least one guaranteed to be from the highest tier. When Multiplier symbols land on the reels Quack-9 will fire into life, destroying them for reveals that keep you on the edge of your seat.
For players who want to take control, Turbo Duck includes a Buy Bonus option with three entry levels, as well as the option to activate Super Stake™, doubling the chance of triggering Free Spins.
James Jelliffe, Head of Slots at Stakelogic, said: “Turbo Duck is a slot that really plays to our strengths. From the stylised visuals to the cinematic pacing, it’s built to stand out. While the theme adds plenty of character, it’s the underlying math that drives the experience, with a carefully balanced mix of volatility, momentum and feature depth designed to keep players engaged.”
