About the game
What you do in a play session
The European Expansion for Wingspan expands the bird‑world to include the diverse and elegant species found across Europe. New birds bring end‑of‑round abilities, player interaction, and bonuses for excess cards or food, all shuffled into the original deck for fresh surprises. The expansion adds a dedicated tray for storing your growing collection, 15 purple eggs, extra food tokens, and a vibrant scorepad that works for both multiplayer and solo play. Designed by Elizabeth Hargrave with illustrations by Natalia Rojas and Ana Maria Martinez, it’s a perfect addition for fans of the base game who crave more strategic depth and a touch of ornithological education.
