Wingspan
Wingspan is a board game designed by Elizabeth Hargrave and published by Stonemaier Games in 2019. It is a medium-weight, card-driven, engine-building board game in which players compete to attract birds to their wildlife preserves. During the game's development process, Hargrave constructed personal charts of birds
observed in Maryland, with statistics sourced from various biological databases; the special powers of birds were also selected to resemble real-life characteristics. Upon its release, Wingspan received critical and commercial acclaim for its gameplay, accurate thematic elements, and artwork. The game also won numerous
awards, including the prestigious 2019 Kennerspiel des Jahres. Several expansions and a digital edition have been subsequently published. Wingspan has sold over 2.6 million copies worldwide and has been translated into 27 languages to date.
