Wingspan is a card-driven, engine-building game. You are bird enthusiast seeking to discover and attract the best birds to your wildlife preserve. There are three habitats that the birds can be placed in: forest, meadows, or wetlands. Some birds have powers that can strengthen your preserve. The winner is the player with the most points after 4 rounds.

Heats will use tables of 4 players as much as possible, with the Quarterfinal, Semifinal, and Final played at a count of 4 per table. Advancement to the Quarterfinal is based on the Heats Most Wins – Points Standard Tie-breakers listed below.
