Brain Spice

Wingspan - Games Unplugged Ticket

$22.00

Brain Spice says: In the world of boardgames, Wingspan has been frequently described as a masterpiece.  Winner of a long list of awards, it has been one of the most successful games of recent years.  There is something special going on when a game captures the minds and hearts of such a wide variety of players worldwide, ranging from hobbyists to families to first-timers.  Wingspan walks a fine line, feeling competitive but never punishing, creating rewarding moments for all players while ensuring that clever play still matters.  The gentle theme, beautiful card art, and clever interweaving of each bird species with their in-game abilities, elevates the experience to something that feels inviting and singular.  Come and let Ruan walk (fly?) you through a game or two, and let Wingspan cast its magic on you too!
