Elizabeth Hargrave returns with *Wingspan Pocket*, a streamlined version of her bird-themed hit, slated for release by Stonemaier Games in 2026. Forget the game board and resource dice; here, each player activates a simple row of double-sided cards (food on one side, bird on the other) for games lasting just 25 to 35 minutes, playable by 1 to 5 people. Bird powers rely more on icons than text, and a new category of permanent (green) bonuses has been introduced.
\nNote, however, that this is a standalone game rather than an expansion; the birds are not compatible with the original *Wingspan*. The stated goal is clear: to make the experience more accessible to newcomers while still satisfying seasoned players with species from around the globe. A complexity rating of 1.50\/5 confirms the aim to focus on the essentials without losing the game’s core DNA.
\nThis is one to watch closely for fans of the franchise looking for a lighter, faster alternative that\u2019s easy to bring to the table anytime.<\/p>\n
