After the successful launch of Wingspan, designer Elizabeth Hargrave hinted at a follow-up game but did not find a clear direction. Stonemaier Games released a spiritual successor called Wyrmspan, which diverged from the avian theme and focused on dragons, missing what players loved about Wingspan's birds. The newly announced Finspan, designed by David Gordon and Michael O'Connell, brings back the beloved nature theme but centers around fish. With its similar aesthetic, Finspan promises enjoyable gameplay and potential depth, even if it doesn’t yet match the originality of its predecessor.
Stonemaier's 'spiritual successor' to Wingspan, Wyrmspan, made interesting tweaks but disregarded what players loved about Wingspan: the real-life birds.
Great news: the actual successor to Wingspan is Finspan, designed by David Gordon and Michael O'Connell, about fish, and developed by Hargrave.
Finspan's cover echoes Wingspan's, swapping real birds for Sailfin Flying Fish, hinting at a new aquatic adventure fans can look forward to.
While Finspan doesn’t fully replicate Wingspan’s variety and surprise, it offers a gorgeous, enjoyable experience expected to reveal hidden depths.
