This fourth Wingspan expansion explores the birds of Mexico, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. This incredibly biodiverse and abundant region is home to more than 3,000 bird species, including the birds with the smallest and largest wingspans in the world (the Bee Hummingbird and Snowy Albatross, respectively). Hummingbirds make up about one tenth of the bird species in Latin America, delighting birders with their quick movements and shimmering feathers. Designer Elizabeth Hargrave and artists Natalia Rojas, Ana Maria Martinez Jaramillo, and Martha Clare highlight them in this expansion with a new type of card that adds a twist to gameplay. Wingspan Americas' components include 111 new bird cards plus 40 hummingbird cards (and their related boards and mats), 8 new goal cards, 5 double-sided goal tiles, and an Automa solo mode. This expansion requires the core Wingspan game (or Wingspan Asia, which is a standalone game for 1-2 players). Designed by Elizabeth Hargrave Illustrated by Natalia Rojas, Ana Maria Martinez Jaramillo, and Martha Clare

Features:

• New Birds: Features 111 new colorful and awe-inspiring birds from Mexico, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. This incredibly biodiverse and abundant region is home to more than 3,000 bird species, including the birds with the smallest and largest wingspans in the world (the Bee Hummingbird and Snowy Albatross, respectively).
• Hummingbirds: Hummingbirds make up about one tenth of the bird species in Latin America, delighting birders with their quick movements and shimmering feathers. Designer Elizabeth Hargrave (The Fox Experiment) and artists Natalia Rojas (Waddle Waddle), Ana Maria Martinez Jaramillo (Finspan), and Martha Clare highlight them in this expansion with a new type of card that adds a twist to gameplay.
• Hummingbird Garden: Wingspan Americas introduces 40 tiny hummingbird cards that flit between players' boards and a garden board, creating a sense of abundance and a little bit of interaction when you place your hummingbird back in the garden. Gain benefits when hummingbirds arrive on your player mat and move up the hummingbird track when they leave.
• Eco-Friendly Packaging: In an effort to help the environment, Wingspan Americas Expansion has no shrink wrap, is in a recyclable cardboard box, and uses a sticker on the back. This is with the idea that this box will be recycled, and the components added into your Wingspan game or Nesting Box.
• Wingspan Game Required: In order to play, the Wingspan (Base Game) or Wingspan Asia (1-2 player) is required. Combines well with all expansions, though there are only 5 hummingbird tracks, so that mechanism doesn’t work with flock mode (6-7 players).
• Bird Collecting: You are bird enthusiasts - researchers, bird watchers, ornithologists, and collectors - seeking to discover and attract a beautiful and diverse network of birds to your wildlife preserve. This is an excellent gift for anyone who already owns Wingspan and wants to add some variety to their game.
• Solo Play: Features an Automa to play against in a 1-player game for a fun solitaire experience. The Automa simulates an opponent for you to compete against, while your game as a player remains the same. On the Automa’s turn, flip a card to see what action it takes.
• Wonderful Game Design and Gorgeous Bird Illustrations: Fantastic design by Elizabeth Hargrave - Every element of the bird used on each card is tied to the theme and mechanisms of the cards: the type of nest and number of eggs that nest holds, the size of the birds and many of their abilities, the type of food that is needed to attract said bird, and where that bird will come to rest on your playmat. Beautifully illustrated by Natalia Rojas, Ana Maria Martinez Jaramillo, and Martha Clare with a lovely realistic and naturalistic art style.
• Thematically Designed Mechanisms: Most bird cards have an ability that benefits you during the game. Many of these abilities tie into the nature of the bird represented on the card. For example, the hummingbird mechanism emulates the way hummingbirds flit quickly from place to place (they never stay on your player mat long).
