Wingspan (with Swift-Start Pack)

I purchased Wingspan after I read an article about how the creator developed the game. I found myself able to relate to her frustration with other games. I did find it a bit tricky to get the game started at first (as with all more complicated games that have a lot of items/elements), however, once that was sorted, it has been a really fun game to play. My husband and I play it every day and I enjoy it because it does rely on part strategy and part luck - unlike other games where it's almost one or the other. The things I like about this game the most are the materials it is made of + it has a set up where you can play solo (like solitaire). It really is quite genius. I purchased both the extension packs at the same time but have not opened them yet as we are still enjoying the original one. I highly recommend this game to anyone that likes a game with strategy.

The quick-start is super helpful to ease yourself into the world of Wingspan - and we got hooked! Different challenges each game keep things interesting, the pace picks up once you have been through a game or two and it’s a good family game where nobody has a particular advantage.

Wingspan is definitely one of the best board games. Its a casual engine building game featuring birds, and can be played, solo as well as competitively with 2-4 players. The components are of excellent quantity, and the bird cards are beautiful and very very informative! The swift starter pack helps in getting you started immediately and offers you 10 additional bird cards as well. Easy to learn and lots of replayability value. Game sessions last from 40 minutes (solo), and 50-90 minutes (with 2+ players)

I initially found the rules quite complicated but soon got the hang of it. It is a lot of fun and very interesting to learn about the birds. The scoring has many components, including secret ones and it is not always obvious who has won until you do the maths at the end of the game and this creates an exciting finish.

Awesome board game for family gatherings.

Good

Super quality! Beautiful game and the box came almost intact!

I bought this game against my GF's will (she said we had enough games). Well, for the first time in a long time she was wrong... She and I (I don't really love board games) fell in love with this game. It's nice. Not 2 games are the same and there are a thousand ways to win. We are considering buying the expansions too

A must have for every board game lover :)

Wingspan is an amazing board game thats fun to play with 2 or more players. The boards and tge cards holder and the eggs and the bird feeder all are well made and has a touch of luxury to them. The game can be won with multiple different strategies and approaches which adds to the fun and increase the life of the game. Recommended for sure!

The most entertaining, well made, quality game. Strategy and fun.

Its a wonderful game! It takes about an hour for most people to learn it. But at the end its so cool a game. I played it with 15-20 people already and everyone loved it. I hated the fact that the English version is so much more expensive than the German one.
