  • This game just takes too long facing people online.

    I keep trying to play a full game and when people are taking there sweet time I can’t take it. I just end up falling asleep. I’m trying to enjoy this game because by round 3 I know the game speeds up but not when your opponent’s take way too long to do one quick thing. I enjoyed the physical copy of the game so much more. If I could get a refund that would be nice. I won’t be playing on the phone anymore. People are just inconsiderate. I can’t take it when someone takes that long. I understand maybe a minute but come on every turn they need a long time to decide. It takes me less than 30 seconds to take my turn. I would like a refund. I’m going to stick to games like dominion where people actually play the game. It’s sad because I feel like using your whole deck in one turn in dominion was faster than someone deciding to gain food or to draw a card in wingspan. The board game gets 4.5 stars when facing the right people. This mobile game is getting a 1 star from me. I never leave bad reviews.

  • Good Game But Buggy

    I really love this game, it’s so much fun. If it weren’t for how buggy and unreliable the game is, I would give it 5 stars. It crashes constantly and every time it happens, even if my turn just started, it says that I timed out for over 5 minutes and lose karma points, which is very unfair. It also doesn’t notify you it’s your turn if playing multiple games and sometimes doesn’t update when it’s your turn and again claims you timed out. If the developers fixed this it would be a great game.

  • Love this game - feature request

    Thanks for making this game. I love it and play with my family nearly every day. It’s been such a fun way to stay connected in these times.

    Two features I would love to see: 1) the ability to reorder cards in your hand. This is helpful if you want to sort which bird you want to play next or which could be tucked. 2) the ability to store usernames or “friend” people so I don’t need to memorize and type in the usernames of people I want to play with every time I start a new game.

    Thanks for this game!

  • Delightful!!

    We absolutely love this game. We play it online with family almost every night…it can actually get quite competitive; which makes the beautiful music and sounds of the game even more appreciated.

    Some mechanism for saving user names would be really useful. It would be nice to have the option to choose from a list when inviting people to an online game.

    Well done! I can’t wait to play the expansions!

  • Great game! - one request

    I love this game and the app is as stunning as the board game. The app runs smoothly and the mechanics are intuitive! I do wish there was some way to track statistics like win rate, etc. if that exists, I have not been able to find it. Additionally, I have found that, if I start an online game against automa, I can not close the app and return to finish the game… it just disappears. Is this a bug or a feature?

  • Great game but still needs multiple updates

    This game is great and fun. But there still needs to be multiple updates. For example:
    1-We need to be able to have a FRIENDS list so we don’t have to type in our friend’s usernames every single time when playing online with them.
    2-On iPhone12Pro the game doesn’t play the AI’s turns and I have to exit the game and re-enter it again to see that the AI have played their turn.
    3-When playing with friends online, the game doesn’t always notify you right away. It’s your turn but the notification comes one hour late.

  • Kinda adore this game?

    First off, some of my fav games on iOS are Istanbul, mystic vale, magic the gathering, smash up, stardew valley, prune, frost, magic the gathering, brawl stars, so I cover the gamut of games. I wanted something that requires some strategy without needing to sink too much time, and wingspan fit the bill.
    The art work is gorgeous. The learning curve is a little steeper than most of the games above, but no worse than Istanbul / smash up / mystic vale. And the game is rewarding insomuch as when you start to get it, you’ll catch the flow of whether to cede rounds for the win or run the table for points.
    Games take about 5 min or so, sounds great, overall well worth the price.
    Also If you’re an animal lover, they’ve also layered in great info on the actual birds.

  • Great purchase

    This app is amazing! I’ve gotten 3 friends to buy it, and I always have a game going with them. I initially got into wingspan over a year ago after buying the physical board game, and I’ve been generally impressed with how well the developers made it into a mobile game (despite the occasional bug here and there). I do have one suggestion, however: I am a huge fan of bonus cards, and it seems like there are a few from the base game that are missing in the app. These include cartographer, photographer, historian, and anatomist. Adding these to the app would make it all the more enjoyable!

  • Now crashes constantly

    I am totally hooked on this game — I play way too much. I love the board game as well but my spouse and kids don’t want to play nearly as much as I do. This app gives me the full original Wingspan experience and now my family is afraid to play me, so that is a disincentive for them too! I’m looking forward to the Europe and Oceania expansions and will happily pay for both when the time comes-assuming the current bugs are worked out.

    My big problem is that it’s started quitting on me. All. The. Time. I’m playing on an iPad that’s new this year and has lots of capacity. I don’t know whether it’s the game update or the iOS update but either way, it’s not an every now and then problem but a constant problem. I’ve rebooted to no avail. My current game will save but quits on me every time. I really need to have this fixed because this app is my favorite game of all time and I’m having withdrawal symptoms.

  • Warning!

    I have never played the cardboard game but when I saw that it was available on iOS I was excited to play it. The game does not disappoint and the tutorial was a great introduction to the game. The additional trivia about birds is a great addition and got me interested in birding in general.

    I’ve never been interested in birding, but after this game I’ve started looking at birds differently and picked up eBird as well. Warning: Playing this game will get you more interested in birds in general and specific birds in your area.

    I cannot wait to see expansions come to the game in the future.
