Tips
Having difficulties defeating the forces of evil in Quack V? Maybe the following tips can help out. Or if you're really in need, jump right to the bottom for a few handy "magic" words that should shift the balance of power in your favor.

  1. Study the level map in the upper-right corner of the HUD. Health kits and egg cartons can typically be found in out of the way places, such as backrooms or in corners. Learn where these items are so you can get to them when you need them.
  2. Leave health kits alone until you really need them. One kit will restore all of your health.
  3. Strafe (move side-to-side) and turn at the same time to keep enemies centered in your sights while making yourself harder to hit.
  4. Adversaries don't retreat (doubleback) unless they have no other alternative. Use this knowledge to predict where they will move to and aim for that spot.
  5. Stay close to corners. Step out and toss an egg; then quickly step back under cover to avoid enemy eggs.
  6. Listen for popping sounds. These indicate the single eggs you picked up earlier have regenerated and can be picked up again.


Cheats
If you're still having trouble with the game, the following words of power might be of interest to you. While playing the game enter "Chat" mode (default "C" key), type in one of these words and hit enter.

  • BLANKS - Typing this word will cause all adversaries to stop tossing eggs at you. This effect carries across levels. Enter the word again and they'll resume tossing.
  • FREEZE - This word will stop all adversaries in their tracks. They won't move anywhere but they will continue to toss eggs at you. This effect carries across levels. Type this word again to allow your opponents the chance to move again.
