Trying to interrupt an opponent is more likely to hurt you than them.

But is it one of thebest board games?

Wyrmspan eliminates Wingspans bird feeder, which involves more luck and competition with other players.

Playing cards is simple, but the real meat of Wyrmspan comes from exploring caves.

The more dragons you have, the more fruitful explorations will be.

Starting off, the three zones just provide one food or a dragon or cave card, respectively.

The trick is deciding where to invest your cards.

While some dragons can be played in any row, most have restrictions which will shape your strategy.

In Wyrmspan you could often make that pivot relatively quickly and still do well.

Should you buy Wyrmspan?

Its a beautifully-produced game with plenty of replayability thanks to the wide variety of dragon cards.
