  Hasn’t this been out for a while?

  I think wingspan is cool cause you can learn about the real world.

  I would honestly rather see a plant or mushroom version of wingspan.

    The article is about the digital version on Steam… not that it makes that very clear. I’m like 80% sure the author has no idea this is a port of a physical board game. But yeah, the digital version is new. It’s not even released yet.

    It has been out for at least a year. I think it’s a good marketing play if nothing else. I know a lot of people that wouldn’t play that bird game but would play a dragons game.

      I get it, dragons are cool, but I wish people would take the time to learn more about nature as much as they do imaginary creatures.

      As a kid, I knew more Pokemon than I did birds and looking back on it, it’s sad. I’ve been learning more about birds, insects, trees, plants, and mushrooms as I get older and it has been like unlocking aspects of the world.

      This is all to say, I think the original wingpsan is a good game, and I hope to see more like it that can teach actual facts.
