You are an amateur dracologist in the world of Wyrmspan, a place where dragons of all shapes, sizes, and colors roam the skies. Excavate a hidden labyrinth you recently unearthed on your land and entice these beautiful creatures to roost in the sanctuary of your caves.
During a game of Wyrmspan, you will build a sanctuary for dragons of all shapes and sizes. Your sanctuary begins with 3 excavated spaces—the leftmost space in your Crimson Cavern, your Golden Grotto, and your Amethyst Abyss. Over the course of the game, you will excavate additional spaces in your sanctuary and entice dragons to live there, chaining together powerful abilities and earning the favor of the Dragon Guild.
Wyrmspan is inspired by the mechanisms of Wingspan, though its 16+ unique elements make Wyrmspan a standalone game (not compatible with Wingspan).
Wyrmspan plays up to 5 players, and it is flexible in size for various tables due to 3 smaller central boards (instead of a single big game board). Each player mat is 475x290mm (a little wider than Wingspan). It includes:
- 2 rulebooks (multiplayer and solo)
- 1 dragon fact book (32 pages)
- 5 player mats
- 5 adventurer meeples and 5 guild tokens
- 183 dragon cards (148 full-grown dragons and 35 hatchlings; 57x87mm)
- 75 cave cards (57x57mm)
- 4 dragon guilds
- 55 speckled egg tokens
- 10 double-sided objective tiles
- 45 shiny cardboard coins
- 10 quick-start cards (2 cards per player; 57x87mm)
- 17 Automa solo mode cards (57x87mm)
