Wingspan Pocket is designed to be accessible to novice players yet also compelling for more experienced gamers. This is a standalone game in a small box, not an expansion (the birds in it are not compatible with Wingspan). Wingspan Pocket features birds from around the world.

The core mechanisms of rolling one or two dice and activating blue/red/purple cards remain essentially the same, and one can either buy another engine-building card or a card with “dream” points after rolling the dice and obtaining the corresponding amount of hearts.

The first player to obtain 8 dream points will have attained their ideal life and wins the game.

Explore a different take on the world of The Witcher and discover the rich tradition of Japanese folklore! The Witcher: Path of Destiny: Ronin takes you to this alternative world. It is an independent, stand-alone game based on the Path of Destiny. You will be able to take on the role of 7 characters – Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri, Yaskra, Vesemir and Triss in a brand-new instalment. Geralt, Vesemir and Ciri will be equipped with katanas, Jaskier will move crowds of geisha with the help of a biwa, and Triss and Yennefer will charm many of samurai on their way.

Story cards are replaced by illustrated Round cards. At the end of a round, contrary to the basic version of the game, players earn Victory Points for the symbol they jointly collected less of, and Experience Points for the symbol they collected more of. This new way of scoring forces players to constantly find balance in their tableau. This means they need to make strategic decisions and blend them with constant interaction with their neighbours at the table.

The variety of characters, Partnership Tracks, as well as the new large deck of Action cards will make each visit to the Japanese Witcher universe a unique and equally engaging one. In the box, you will find 5 double-sided Partnership Tracks, which are to be placed between the neighbouring players. New symbols and effects on Action cards often require neighbours to determine common tactics for playing cards. New effects allow players to climb up on their tracks, gaining additional bonuses together. Another component that enhances the feeling of building relationships are special Character Ability cards. Some effects from the Partnership track allow you to use the special abilities of your companions sitting next to you. Trust your Partners, but focus on achieving your own goals!

Ronin offers a competitive mode, but the new expansion puts quite a big emphasis on cooperation. In Ronin, players not only try their best to draft and play cards, but also to cooperate with each neighbouring player to get the best shared bonuses.

When playing with two players, you will use the help of Automa – an additional player, managed by the game. In solo mode, we will play with two Automa. Automa plays cards and allows players to use cooperation tracks, but does not collect points by itself.

In the solo variant, the player chooses a character, neighbouring characters and the difficulty level. The goal of the game is to collect Victory Points and achieve a special Victory Condition. The characters, as well as the difficulty level, give you a huge variability in this variant (hundreds of different starting layouts of the game).

Now the time has come for the final exam. You must prove you can create new solar systems, coax stars into life, shape a range of biomes, and ultimately seed planets with life. It may only be a simulation, there are limits to what you can do here; this is science, not magic.

And you are not alone. Across the complex, fellow apprentices step into their own chambers, beginning the same trial. Only one will rise to join the caste. This is your moment of truth.

Entropy plays out over a variable number of rounds. Each turn, you must move your Scientist between 1 to 3 spaces clockwise around the Main board. You must end your movement on either an inner Action space on the Main board or an outer space of an Action tile, and resolve it. You will build Solar Systems with Stars, Planets and Asteroids, then fill them with Life, by playing cards. You may also gain various special abilities by adding Biomes and upgrading your Console.

The end game is triggered when any 2 out of 6 Main Objectives are Completed. The player with the most Victory Points at the end of the game is the winner.

Players can now nurture colorful coral reefs in each of their ocean’s three dive sites.

Healthy reefs enable you to play powerful reef fish, unlock fish abilities, and score bonuses at the end of the game. Meanwhile, sharks scatter schools of young (to form even more schools elsewhere) and leave behind food scraps that any fish in your ocean can consume.

The jungles are vast and dense, and expeditions into the further realms of the land are undertaken often. There was once a mysterious civilization that dwelt here, long lost to history, but archaeological discoveries are beginning to shed a light on the ancients.

In Emerland, you send critter Workers to various locations on the board to gather resources. You use these resources to play cards face-up in front of you, forming your jungle city and helping you to score points. Each turn, you take one of 6 possible actions: Place a Worker (with or without Helpers), Place a Helper, Play a Card, Use an Artisan Card, Excavate with your Archaeologist or Prepare for Season.

The game ends when all players have reached the end of Spring and can no longer make any actions. The player with the most points wins.

In this first expansion to Wingspan, we increase the scope of the world to include the regal, beautiful, and varied birds of Europe. These birds feature a variety of new abilities, including a number of birds with round end abilities, abilities that increase interaction between players, and birds that benefit from excess cards/food. Along with the new bonus cards, they’re designed to be shuffled into the original decks of cards (and cards from future expansions).

The European Expansion also includes an additional tray for storing the growing collection of birds (past, present, and future), as well as 15 purple eggs, extra food tokens, and a colorful new scorepad designed for both multi-player and single-player scoring. It’s designed by Elizabeth Hargrave and features birds illustrated by Natalia Rojas and Ana Maria Martinez.

Each turn you move around a randomly generated map of locations, each offering a unique action or effect. Visiting these locations you unlock your potential, spread your influence, develop your attributes, build your network of contacts across three factions (smugglers, mercenaries, lawmakers), and then work with that network to complete jobs your contacts are suited for (unearthing artefacts, claiming bounties and developing augmentations). Through action selection, card-tableau combo building, area control, and careful resource management you seek to gain more leverage than your opponents, all while the powers-that-be use any and all insidious tricks at their disposal to keep you down where they want you.
