A New Imprint from Pandion Games

Pocket Birds is written, designed, illustrated, and curated by the team behind some of your favorite tabletop roleplaying games like Whispers in the Walls, Badger + Coyote, Substratum Protocol, and Midnight Muscadines.

Pandion Games has always included learning, ecology, and collaborative creativity in their games, and now they're launching Pocket Birds to bring that love to bird watching.
