I've not played Wingspan, so I can't really compare the two. On it's own, I like Wyrmspan. Though, it's almost like each player is playing their own game and you just compare points at the end to see who did the best. To the point that, during one turn we had two players end up with a few extra actions to complete, and the third player got up from the table and walked off for a bit, without much of a worry that his game would be effected by the other two doing stuff.
