Description
Train Young Dragons, Grow Your Sanctuary
Wyrmspan: Dragon Academy expands the dracologist experience by adding new dragons, caves, and systems that deepen sanctuary-building and engine options. Open your academy, train fledgling dragons, and use guilds and objectives to shape long-term strategies—while a new round tracker offers meaningful income choices when you pass for the round. Designed by Connie Vogelmann with art by Clémentine Campardou, this expansion fits neatly into the core game and broadens the ways you can build satisfying dragon chains.
The expansion introduces new dragon breeds and cave types that create fresh synergies with the base game’s mechanics, plus Dragon Guild tiles and objective tiles that tweak goals each play. Training tokens let you develop dragons over time, and the new round tracker adds an approachable income decision when you opt to skip—giving you more tactical depth without bloating complexity.
