- Arknova is getting an expansion named Aquarius which is adding in a bunch of new elements to the game but focuses on sea animals that each have to be played in new special enclosures that must be built adjacent to water.
- My money would be on this not being the last expansion for Arknova a game that has been so very hot for so very long.
- The next two games in Stefan Feld's and Queen Games' Cities Collection were announced with Vienna being the reimagining of the classic 2014 title Isla.

Quotes (from this video)
- the biggest downside for me for Finsspan was the ratio between the complexity of this game versus the time length
- I would rather play Wingspan in a relatively quickly pace with gamers who knew Wingspan as well rather than play this game for 45 to 60 minutes
- This game is somewhat simple to teach but it does offer a little bit of complexity
- Visually, I think this game plays a lot like Bonsai
- Hey, that's My Fish—catchy title for my daughter as well
