Piepmatz: Little Songbirds
Players place bird cards at perches to compete for seeds and birds at a communal feeder. On each turn a player plays a bird from hand, resolves interactions between the played bird and those on the ground to take seed cards, add birds to their personal collection, or move birds to the feeder, then draws back up. The game ends when the feeder deck empties; after a final discard phase players add remaining cards to their collections and score. Points come from collected seeds, mated bird pairs, and species majorities; the highest total wins.

Mohasz7.0 Looks like a similar kind of game to Arboretum, just slightly less stressful. I hope it's good. After the first play: not bad, maybe it feels a little overcomplicated, considering it's just a set collection card game. Not sure I'll keep it. ...I won't. I have enough small card games and I enjoy Wingspan more if I want the bird theme.

Evan6.0 Very cute filler game where you do some set collection with various types of birds. At the end of the game you get to score a color if you have the most cards of that color in your tableau and there's mini points if you managed to get both bird cards of the same number. It feels a little like Arboretum light, yet still quite enjoyable. Looking forward to more. ★ Art, Iconography and components functional ★ Clever or interesting mechanisms ★ Reasonably low downtime between turns with mildly AP players ☆ Multiple plays stay interesting ★ Low or mitigatable luck elements ★★☆☆☆ Raw enjoyment
