FlockTots
A play-together game for ages 3–5: help every duckling waddle home to the reeds — together, before Rusk the fox creeps too close. Take turns with Hopps the frog: waddle a duckling across, or shoo Rusk back. Hopps helps every turn but never does it all — you win together. No one loses to a friend. On-device; nothing leaves your device.

Meet the cast
FlockTots has a tiny friendly crew who make cooperation something a three-year-old can feel: Puddle the duck leads her ducklings home — but never alone; Hopps the frog is the friend who helps fairly every turn and never does it all (the Team Rule); Rusk the fox is the shared danger who creeps a step closer each round, so you shoo him back together; and Cattail is the home reeds every duckling waddles toward (their illustrated storybooks are on the way).
Puddle
(Hero) the mother duck — leads her ducklings home, but never alone; she teams up so everyone makes it (the shared goal)
Hopps
The frog friend — helps fairly EVERY turn and shoos the fox when he's close, but NEVER does it all alone (the Team / We Rule: a good teammate leaves room for you)
Rusk
The fox — the shared danger who creeps one step closer each round; you and Hopps push him back together (the escalating threat)
Cattail
The home reeds on the far bank — the shared goal every duckling waddles toward (you win when everyone is home)
