You've heard of chess, well get ready for Rubber Duck Chess! The game adds a dynamic component to the mix: a rubber duck that both players can move!

The duck blocks the square it's on, making it impossible for pieces to move to that square or through it and creates a lot of new tactical possibilities (often called "quacktics") by unpinning pieces, blocking defenders, trapping pieces, and more. 

Open to all Queen's Students. Free for Rubber Duck Appreciation Society and Chess Club members. £1 plus booking fee for non-members.
