Duck Race in Presentations โ€“ A Unique Interactive Slide by EngageSlide

Interactive presentations are evolving fast — and Duck Race is one of the most engaging mini-games ever used to energize an audience.
While Duck Race games already exist as standalone websites (such as the popular Duck Race on Online-Stopwatch), EngageSlide is the first platform to bring Duck Race directly into presentation slides — even running inside PowerPoint.

๐Ÿ‘‰ This is not a link, not a separate website, but a native Duck Race slide type — something no other presentation tool currently offers.


What is a Duck Race game?

Duck Race is a simple, high-impact game where:

  • Each participant gets a duck

  • Ducks race automatically on a track

  • The winner is decided randomly, creating suspense until the finish line

Duck Race games are widely used because they:

  • Require zero skills

  • Are fair and unpredictable

  • Instantly grab attention

  • Work perfectly for giveaways, warm-ups, and audience selection

Standalone versions like Online Stopwatch Duck Race prove how effective the format is — but they still live outside your presentation.


The problem with traditional Duck Race websites

Using Duck Race on external websites creates friction for presenters:

โŒ You must leave your slides
โŒ Switch browser tabs during the presentation
โŒ Break the flow of storytelling
โŒ Cannot run directly inside PowerPoint
โŒ Results are disconnected from your content

For professional workshops, classes, and events, this breaks immersion.


EngageSlide’s solution: Duck Race as a Slide Type

๐ŸŽฏ Duck Race is now part of your presentation

With EngageSlide, Duck Race becomes:

  • Fully embedded in your presentation flow

  • No external tabs, no interruptions

  • One click to start, right from the slide


๐Ÿš€ Duck Race that runs inside PowerPoint

This is where EngageSlide is fundamentally different.

โœ… EngageSlide Duck Race can:

  • Run directly inside PowerPoint

  • Work in live presentation mode

  • Allow participants to join via phone or browser

  • Let presenters stay fully inside their slide deck
