> 3 daySo we may have developed an addiction to this game. We have played more than a game a day worth of games dice we got it. We also plan on getting the new expansion as soon as its on pre-order. To top it off we are browsing etsy for fancier tokens and contemplating a fancier bird house for dice rolls (love that mechanism btw).

> 3 dayThe nectar is a great addition. The new board offsets the value of eggs so it’s not the main choice for the last two moves.

> 3 dayThese games are a little expensive but well worth it because theyre so well-made and unusual. Get the base Wingspan game and play it a little while before you get the expansion. This expansion adds a ton more birds and really brings out the fun or discovering new birds as youre playing the game. Great replayability too. Ive become a fan of Stonemaier Games because of Wingspan and the expansions dont disappoint! Their motto is We believe in creating memorable, beautiful, fun games. I certainly think theyve succeeded!

> 3 dayMy pod was really enjoying Wingspan but the ending was getting dull as we would all too often just buy eggs on every turn of the final round. With Oceania, egg powers are diminished a bit and replaced by far more paths to victory in the form of different bonuses, end of game goals, more bonus cards, and nectar. Weve routinely had very close games where different people used completely different strategies. The new cards, eggs, and playing surfaces will fit into the original Wingspan box as long as you remove the components you no longer need with Oceania. Im not sure if you could also fit the European expansion or not. Contrary to what another reviewer wrote, none of us found the new nectar food type to be overpowered, although we did agree with the instruction book suggestion to remove the 2 raven cards from the deck when playing the expansion. Instead, we found the game to ultimately be more balanced and refined than the original. If you do play this and feel like nectar is overpowered, just be sure you are properly discarding unused nectar after each round and that youve read the scoring instructions carefully.
