From BoardGameGeek
Winterfall takes place 5 years after the events of the base game. In that time, Captain Freya has grown into a capable young leader. Aren't you curious to see how her abilities have evolved? Set during a long, harsh winter on Starbeak Island, the expansion introduces blizzards, auroras, and other shifting weather phenomena that transform the main board. Some spaces will grant powerful effects, while others may disrupt Habitats, creating a dynamic new twist on worker placement. You'll also encounter the mysterious Spirits, a new species that appears in the winter and interacts uniquely with weather effects. Alongside them come a wealth of new Creature cards, brand new Captains, Achievements, and more.
Wondrous Creatures: Winterfall has 20 videos from 19 creators: 8 reviews, 3 how-to-play guides, 4 playthroughs, 4 unboxings and 1 other video. They date from June to September 2026.
