Tried the Game Yet?
Wingspan, originally a card-based board game designed by Elizabeth Hargrave, was adapted into a digital format and first released on PC in 2020, followed by mobile versions in 2021. In the game, players work to attract the best birds to their wildlife preserve, creating powerful combinations that enhance their strategy.
With a limited number of turns, players must carefully manage resources such as food, egg-laying, and card draws to build their nature preserve. The birds in the game mimic their real-life behaviors, with hawks hunting, pelicans fishing, and geese forming flocks, adding a realistic touch to the gameplay.
While waiting for the Asia Expansion, players can explore the existing European and Oceania expansions, available on the Google Play Store.
