In a 90 minute game of WyrmspanYou lure dragons to a sanctuary to impress the dragon guild. Wyrmspan will be available for sale on the Stonemaier Games website at the end of January and will be available at retail at the end of March.
This is how Stonemaier Games described it:
You are an amateur dracologist in the world of Wyrmspan, a place where dragons of all shapes, sizes and colors roam the skies. Dig up a hidden labyrinth you recently excavated on your land and lure these beautiful creatures to take up residence in the sanctuary of your caves.
During a game of Wyrmspan, you create a haven for dragons of all shapes and sizes. Your Sanctuary begins with three excavated rooms – the leftmost room in your Crimson Cave, your Golden Grotto, and your Amethyst Abyss. As the game progresses, you dig up more rooms in your sanctuary and lure dragons to live there. In doing so, you chain together powerful skills and win the favor of the Dragon Guild.
Wyrmspan is inspired by the mechanics of Wingspan, but its unique elements make Wyrmspan a standalone game (not compatible with Wingspan).
How span, Wyrmspan has beautiful art. French artist Clementine Campardou illustrated the game and all of its dragons in watercolor; You can find several of the paintings on your website.
