Algorhythm Project Plays Goose Goose Duck as Deaths Echo Their Song “Mr. Schadenfreude”
Morr hosted a night of rounds with his Algorhythm Project mates that ended with a swordsman cutting down a line of players on cue.
ALGORHYTHM PROJECT — Morr and fellow members of Algorhythm Project (ARP) played Goose Goose Duck on his channel on Thursday, a stream of nearly three hours that tied the game’s roles to the group’s Thai cover of “Mr. Schadenfreude” and closed with a staged swordsman strike on a row of players.
The players opened by calling out who had died in what order. The first to fall was a mage and the second a knight, and participants remarked that it was following the song. Once the lobby was full, a round was played for a newcomer to the game, with the rules explained: the geese win by finishing their tasks or by voting out the duck, and special roles change how a round plays out.
“My throat is dry. I didn’t think I’d be shouting this much.” — Morr, as the night wound down
The group then rotated through maps, among them a spaceship map and one with Godzilla, whose beams cut players down. A round on the Godzilla map ended when the geese finished their tasks, a result one participant said they had never seen before.
Late in the stream the players said they wanted to see the swordsman duck in action. The role has to charge before it strikes and can be aimed along a line, and one attempt caught five players at once. For the finale the group lined up in the middle of the map, a participant recited a mock incantation, and the slash froze its victims where they stood. The players then arranged themselves in the order they had died, as in the song. Viewers called it a beautiful way to finish.
After the others signed off, Morr thanked viewers and said he planned to stream again the next day, with the time to be announced.
