Wingspan: The Board Game in IOS

Strategy game about birds

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

96/100

Wingspan is a digital port done right. It successfully takes one of the most beloved board games of the decade and adds a layer of magic through animation and sound. Hearing the actual bird calls when you play a card adds an incredible amount of immersion that the physical board game simply can't provide.

The UI is intelligently condensed for mobile screens without losing the elegance of the original artwork. The AI is challenging enough for solo players, but the real meat is in the online multiplayer. It’s an 'engine-building' game where you feel a genuine sense of accomplishment as your bird sanctuary begins to hum with efficiency. It’s relaxing, educational, and strategically deep.

Wingspan is a relaxing, award-winning strategy card game about birds for 1 to 5 players. Each bird you play extends a chain of powerful combinations in one of your three habitats. Your goal is to discover and attract the best birds to your network of wildlife preserves.

You are bird enthusiasts—researchers, bird watchers, ornithologists, and collectors—seeking to discover and attract the best birds to your network of wildlife preserves.
