Wingspan

Wingspan is a stunningly designed engine-building board game that celebrates the beauty and diversity of birds. Created by Elizabeth Hargrave and published by Stonemaier Games, it challenges players to build the most successful wildlife preserve by attracting unique bird species. Each bird card represents a real-life species with scientifically accurate details, and as players strategically place birds in their forest, grassland, or wetland habitats, they unlock powerful abilities that create rewarding synergies throughout the game.

With a perfect balance of strategy, resource management, and card-driven gameplay, Wingspan offers endless replayability. Players must carefully manage their food supply, lay eggs, and draw new birds while competing to achieve round-based objectives and long-term goals. The game’s beautiful artwork, pastel-colored egg tokens, and relaxing nature theme make it both visually appealing and deeply engaging. Whether you’re a casual player looking for a peaceful yet strategic experience or a competitive gamer seeking optimal engine-building tactics, Wingspan provides a unique and immersive challenge.

Since its release, Wingspan has received widespread acclaim, winning the Kennerspiel des Jahres (2019) and expanding with multiple regional bird expansions, including Europe, Oceania, and Asia. Its blend of scientific accuracy, strategic depth, and breathtaking aesthetics has made it a modern classic in the board gaming world. Whether you’re an avid birdwatcher, a nature enthusiast, or a strategy game lover, Wingspan offers a truly captivating experience that keeps players coming back for more.
