Description

In Wingspan, you are a bird enthusiast – a researcher, bird watcher, ornithologist, or collector – seeking to attract a diverse collection of birds to your network of wildlife preserves. Each preserve becomes its own unique engine as you draw and play bird cards with varying habitats and unique abilities.

The core loop involves gathering food tokens from a birdfeeder dice tower, laying eggs, and drafting bird cards to your tableau. Each bird you play triggers a chain of powerful combinations in one of your habitats, leading to points and further opportunities to expand your preserve. With beautiful artwork and thematically integrated mechanics, Wingspan offers a relaxing yet strategic experience as you build the most vibrant and thriving bird sanctuary.
