Description
Calico is a beautifully designed, abstract tile-laying puzzle game where you compete to create the coziest quilt for cuddly cats. Players draft hexagonal fabric tiles, each featuring a unique pattern and color, and strategically place them onto their personal quilt board. The goal is to score points by fulfilling three distinct objectives: creating color groups, forming pattern combinations to attract specific cats (who each have their own scoring criteria), and sewing on colorful buttons when three or more fabric tiles of the same color are placed adjacent to each other. With simple rules but deeply satisfying strategic depth, Calico offers a calming yet challenging experience as players meticulously arrange tiles to achieve multiple scoring goals simultaneously.
The Marco thinks:
Yes, you get it right, it’s a game about cats. It presents an incredibly strategic depth as players must optimize their tile placement on a common board to fulfill their own goals and obstruct opponents. Suitable for both beginner and experienced players. I bet The Lidia would like it, maybe you can invite her to join the table.
The Lidia thinks:
I finally learned how to play this game. While this game is adorable, the gameplay itself is really challenging. I recommend having a good night’s sleep and a solid breakfast before you play this.
