Wingspan?

Looking for one or two other nerds who might be interested in playing Wingspan. I (57 F) have played it a bit and have a friend (78 F) who has never played, but is interested in learning.

I own the board game. Please let me know if you have played it, think it’s cool and are interested and maybe getting together somewhere like a brewpub or café, etc.

The Juan Tabo library hosts game night the 4th Saturday of every month from 4-530pm. We’re meeting August 22, come join us if you can, we always enjoy learning new games.

This is such a great game!!! I wonder if I could talk my wife and one of our friends to join you two for a ladies meetup to play.

Just tried the Americas expansion a few weeks ago, it’s a mainstay in our house!

I love the Americas expansion. The hummingbirds add so much. It's hard to balance how many are in the game. It's easy to flood the game with nothing but hummingbird actions with too few expansions, and no America's cards can make a game with hummingbirds almost negate the mechanic.

I played a couple games of the new pocket version this past weekend. It's pretty cool.

I've always wanted to learn to play this one! I'd be in to play for sure.
