Raptor Valley
Welcome to Raptor Valley. Here’s your flashlight, good luck surviving the night. This game is also a frightening test of your reflexes and senses. You must survive the night while standing in the middle of a field of tall grass filled with hungry raptors. You’ll get a flashlight, which you can use shine light on the raptors to scare them off before they get to you. If you survive long enough to prove yourself, you might just get a flare gun, too. (Psst. I forgot to mention: Don’t draw attention to the T-Rex.)

Sneaky Bears
There’s something particularly sinister about the idea of an evil teddy bear dead set on world domination. Stuffed animals are supposed to offer comfort to children, not take over the world. In WarDuck’s Sneaky Bears, an evil mastermind teddy bear named Bear Frank has taken control of an abandoned toy factory, and he’s cranking out an army of evil teddy bears as fast as he can.
You must put a stop to Bear Frank’s dastardly plans, but first, you’ll have for the fight your way through his army of innocent looking (but very evil) plush bears.
