This is the fourth or fifth Wingspan video that I've watched today. I have to say this was the best one I've watched. Great pacing, delivery and content!

[flameonglass]

Not only are these girls hilarious but this is the best explanation of how to play wingspanI have seen yet.

[carlatate]

Watched a ton of Wingspan videos today and this one ws the easiest to understand and most fun (as usual). Thanks!

[theyodicoyote]

When they read the names of the birds I almost spit out my coffee! I would like to know how many takes it took for them to get thru that. Good job girls!

Who needs this Bryan... Brent... Brandy... Brin... what's his name? Anyway, who needs this guy when his daughters do such an amazing job. You two are hired! And that guy... Branston... whatever... he's fired!

Izzy nailed your style Ryan. It runs in the family I guess. Fantastic!

[aashkas]

Best explanation and editing skills. The only video that I was able to understand from. Thank you

[randybieri]

The girls did great! This was one of your best. Nice work!

[BabbittdaWabbitt]

This video is more fun than playing the damn game. Really, best most concise vid I’ve seen.

[christopherdesmond]

That was fantastic, young ladies! And I have to tell you, that “white power” reference was so funny! I was a little shocked that it was put in there, but I do love that kind of joking. The girls handled it great! Keep up the good work, family!

[jp-hhxq]

Honestly the best, short explanation I have ever heard on how to play this game for the first time. Very well done!

[dinahsanders]

By far the best tutorial for Wingspan I've found. Thanks!

[Muhd_Akmal]

Hands down the best video in the channel. Very nicely done girls!

[craigelms]

I've watched quite a number of "how to play" videos for Wingspan and this is by far the best one!!! Awesome!! Well done and thanks.

[mindclashgames]

Very nicely done! Kudos to them for keeping a straight face when reading the bird names :D

[MrNotfiman]

Without doubt the greatest how to play video ever.
Hilarious. Great work everyone.
This is my 3rd viewing and the body parts bonus card part still kills me 😂

[NamNguyen-wpdg]

Great tutorial young ladies, I've watched a few and this is the most descriptive and entertaining one. Fantastic job!

[playmanz]

love the animation and graphic to help understand easier.

[MichaelEKaz]

This has been the clearest explanation on how to play Wingspan. And funniest too!

[brianhatch]

I've watched tons of your videos and this may be my favorite. Izzy totally nailed you Ryan. Great job ladies!
