Duck River Proves CCTV Games Work Beyond Traffic

Duck River launched on 15 February 2026, and in doing so answered the biggest question facing the CCTV game format: does it work with something other than traffic?

The answer is yes. Duck River takes the exact same prediction mechanics as Rush Hour and applies them to a purpose-built lazy river in a 10,000 square-foot warehouse. Eight colourful plastic ducks race through rapids, rocks, and obstacles while AI tracks them through the course.

Built From Scratch

Unlike Rush Hour, which points cameras at existing city infrastructure, Duck River required 155.io to build the entire environment from scratch. The lazy river is 30 metres long, with obstacles including whirlpools, rapids, and even a crocodile obstacle. The physical setup means genuine unpredictability: water physics make each round unique.

The betting format is unchanged: Under, Over, Range, or Exact on how many ducks cross the detection zone. Over/Under bets carry the same 95-97% RTP as Rush Hour.

Why It Matters

Duck River is proof of concept for the CCTV game genre as a whole. If the format only worked with traffic cameras, it would be a novelty. By demonstrating that any real-world scenario with countable objects can become a prediction game, 155.io has validated the entire genre.

Duck River is currently live on Roobet and Stake. With Snow Run launching on 7 April, the portfolio is expanding into alpine terrain next.
