Haven't Tried Wingspan Yet?
Based on Elizabeth Hargrave's acclaimed card-based board game, Wingspan's digital adaptation (released on PC in 2020 and mobile in 2021) challenges players to strategically attract birds to their wildlife preserves, creating powerful combinations. Gameplay involves careful resource management, balancing food, egg-laying, and card draws within a limited number of turns. Bird abilities mirror their real-world counterparts, from hawks hunting to geese flocking.
