Hummingbird cards, a smaller 44x67mm format that makes them immediately recognizable at the table, fuel this new space and reward players who commit to building around it.

The goal is to build the most flourishing preserve by game's end, and the paths to get there are as varied as the birds themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho Will Love This Game\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWingspan Pocket plays with one to five players and hits its stride with two to four at the table. The age recommendation of ten and up holds up well — the iconography is intuitive, and the theme does a lot of the heavy lifting for newer players. In terms of complexity, this sits comfortably in the medium-light range: there's genuine strategic depth here, but the rules teach quickly and most players are flying on their own within a game or two. Plan for sixty to ninety minutes for a full session, though it moves faster once everyone knows the bird powers. It works equally well as a couples game, a family strategy night, or an accessible entry point for friends you're trying to bring into hobby gaming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Pocket edition packs in the full Wingspan experience with components scaled for portability without sacrificing tactile quality. The bird cards — the heart of the game — feature the same stunning watercolour illustrations by Natalia Rojas and Ana Maria Martinez Jaramillo that made the original so visually striking. Custom eggs, a compact bird feeder dice tower, and a condensed board round out a surprisingly complete package. If you already love Wingspan, this is a compelling travel companion to your shelf copy. If this is your first encounter with the game, you're starting somewhere wonderful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStonemaier Games\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlayers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1–5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended Player Count\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2–4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAge Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10+\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlay Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60–90 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGame Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium-Light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLanguage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Stonemaier Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44630210314328,"sku":"STM948","price":28.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4980\/8728\/files\/cmRlci5qcGc.png?v=1787251435"},{"product_id":"stonemaier-games-vantage-board-game","title":"Stonemaier Games Vantage Board Game","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA World Too Big to See Alone\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePicture standing at the edge of an unknown landscape, able to call out to your companions but unable to see what they see. That tension — of shared purpose and solitary discovery — is what Vantage puts on the table. Every player inhabits their own corner of a massive, interconnected world, piecing together what lies beyond their own field of view through exploration, communication, and careful deduction. It is a rare thing for a game to make the table feel genuinely vast, and Vantage earns it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom Stonemaier Games — the studio behind Wingspan and Scythe — Vantage is a card-based exploration game built around a staggering world. Nearly 800 interconnected location cards form the bones of its sandbox, with over 900 additional discoverable cards waiting to be uncovered through play. Each player experiences the world from a first-person perspective: you can see your own location in full detail, you can communicate with and assist the players around you, but the vast distances between you mean that no one else can see what you see. What your companions are encountering, what they are hiding, and what they are struggling with — all of that must be shared, inferred, or withheld. The result is a game where information is as valuable as any resource, and trust is something you build card by card.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVantage is best at two to four players, and it carries meaningful weight — this is a game that rewards patience, attention, and a willingness to engage with its world over a session of one to two hours or more. It suits players who love exploration, hidden information, and the kind of slow-burn satisfaction that comes from watching a shared map take shape. It is not a first-night gateway game, but it is an exceptional choice for a dedicated game group ready for something genuinely different. Solo play is also supported for those who want to explore the world at their own pace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFeatures and Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scale of the card world is the centrepiece — nearly 800 location cards that connect and interact with one another, plus a discovery deck of over 900 cards that keeps the experience fresh across multiple plays. The first-person perspective structure is mechanically and thematically unified in a way that feels deliberate rather than gimmicky: what you can and cannot share with other players is woven directly into how the game communicates its world. Stonemaier Games is known for component quality and thoughtful production, and Vantage continues that tradition with a visual identity designed to immerse rather than overwhelm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStonemaier Games\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlayers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1–4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended Player Count\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2–4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAge Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14+\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlay Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60–120 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGame Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium–Heavy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLanguage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Stonemaier Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44663744921688,"sku":"32180863","price":104.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4980\/8728\/files\/s-l1600_dfd840bc-16e7-4296-bc22-0dcd26f90b31.jpg?v=1787765009"},{"product_id":"stonemaier-games-wingspan-speckled-eggs-accessory-pack-100-count","title":"Stonemaier Games Wingspan: Speckled Eggs Accessory Pack (100 Count)","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Details That Make Every Nest Feel Real\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere's something quietly satisfying about reaching into a bag of smooth, speckled eggs during a game of Wingspan — a small tactile detail that pulls you deeper into the world of birds, habitats, and carefully tended nests.

If you already love the original Tokaido, this is a natural companion; if this is your first trip down the eastern sea road, it's an ideal place to begin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003ePublisher\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eStonemaier Games\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003ePlayers\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e1–2\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eRecommended Player Count\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eAge Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e10+\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003ePlay Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e45–60 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eGame Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eLight\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eLanguage\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Stonemaier Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44663925538904,"sku":"SV174380","price":32.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4980\/8728\/files\/s-l1600_7d4e0b95-01c7-450e-97be-bbb144d52efa.jpg?v=1787767602"},{"product_id":"wingspan-fan-designed-card-packs-expansion-set-1","title":"Wingspan: Fan-Designed Card Packs Expansion Set 1","description":"\u003ch2\u003e150 New Wings to Discover\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's something special about sitting down to a game of Wingspan and drawing a bird you've never seen before — one with an ability that surprises you, a habitat you hadn't planned for, and artwork that makes you pause before you play it.

You're negotiating with the player on your left, trading ideas with the player on your right, and quietly calculating which city you need to tip in your favour — all before the next hand of tiles lands in front of you.

Each player works as a city planner partnered with the players on either side of them, co-constructing two city centres at once. On each turn, you draw tiles representing districts, parks, shops, and civic buildings, choose two to keep, and then negotiate with each neighbour about where those tiles fit best. At the end of the game, your score is determined by your \u003cem\u003elower-scoring\u003c\/em\u003e city — so you can't afford to neglect either partnership.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat single rule creates a constant, satisfying tension.

It's a strong pick for couples, friend groups, and family game nights where not everyone wants a two-hour commitment. Games typically run 20 to 40 minutes, making it a natural opener or a satisfying standalone session. The simultaneous partnership mechanic also makes it a genuinely social experience — you're talking to your neighbours throughout, not sitting in silence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Essential Edition delivers a clean, focused package of the core game.

Players take on the roles of rival nobles competing to prove their worth and claim the throne of the Timeless King.

If you're already a fan of Stonemaier's catalogue, Stamp Swap fits naturally alongside it — and if this is your introduction to the publisher, it's a welcoming entry point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStonemaier Games\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlayers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1–5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended Player Count\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3–4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAge Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12+\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlay Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45–75 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGame Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium-Light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLanguage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Stonemaier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44699937669208,"sku":"STM175","price":42.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4980\/8728\/files\/6eadc2253cf64533985c8fd803bcc1aa_0.webp?v=1788362921"},{"product_id":"red-rising-board-game-2-4-players","title":"Red Rising Board Game (2-4 Players)","description":"\u003ch2\u003ePolitics, Sacrifice, and a Solar System to Conquer\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery card you play is a card you leave behind — and the one waiting for your opponent to pick up. That tension sits at the heart of Red Rising, where each decision carries both immediate consequence and lingering opportunity. The most satisfying moments come not from a single clever move but from a chain of choices that suddenly clicks into place, leaving your rivals scrambling to catch up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Game\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStonemaier Games — known for producing titles with exceptional production values and sharp design — brings Pierce Brown's acclaimed science fiction trilogy to the tabletop in a form that honours the source material without requiring familiarity with it. In Red Rising, players recruit characters from across the factions of a stratified solar system, deploying them to seven contested locations to build influence and score points. The core loop is deceptively simple: retrieve a character from a location, trigger their ability, then place a card from your hand to that same spot. What emerges from that loop is a web of combos, calculated sacrifices, and quietly devastating plays that rewards anyone willing to learn the deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScoring flows from the sets and combinations you build across locations, with end-game bonuses adding a final layer of strategic consideration. Games run 45–60 minutes, meaning there is almost always time for a rematch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho Should Play It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRed Rising is well-suited to two to four players aged 14 and up, and it scales genuinely well across that full range — though two-player games have a particular sharpness worth seeking out. In terms of weight, it sits in the light-to-medium zone: quick to explain, quick to set up, and deep enough to hold the attention of experienced gamers without overwhelming newcomers. Fans of card games like Jaipur who are ready for something with more strategic texture will feel immediately at home. Readers of the trilogy get the added reward of faithful character and faction representation throughout the deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe component quality is exactly what Stonemaier players expect — sturdy, well-printed cards with clear iconography, an insert designed for functional use rather than frustrating you at setup, and everything needed to play straight out of the box. The rulebook includes solo and team variant rules, extending the game's versatility beyond its standard competitive format. With over 120 character cards spanning the full breadth of the Red Rising universe, the deck rewards repeated play as you uncover new combinations and interactions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStonemaier Games\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlayers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2–4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended Player Count\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2–3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAge Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlay Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45–60 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGame Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight–Medium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLanguage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Stonemaier Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67702360506456,"sku":null,"price":49.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4980\/8728\/files\/36d7d24232464532b7878870adb5dc28_0.webp?v=1791851799"}],"url":"https:\/\/borealgaming.com\/collections\/stonemaier-games.oembed","provider":"Boreal Gaming \u0026 Cards","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
