■ Product Introduction

[Purpose and appeal of the game]

Calico is a board game where you collect patch tiles of colors and patterns and place them on your own quilt board to create the coziest quilt.
Compete for points by completing design goal tiles, attracting cats, and acquiring buttons.
The rules are simple, but the game offers deep strategic possibilities.

  • Design Goal Achievement : Create a designated color or pattern combination around the three design goal tiles
  • Cat token acquisition : Attract cats by forming groups with specific patterns that each cat prefers.
  • Get Button Tokens : Collect 3 or more patch tiles of the same color to get a button (3 points each).

[Game flow and strategy]

Each player has their own quilt board and places patch tiles on it.
The game is simple: you place one tile from your hand, then choose one from the tile market in the center and add it to your hand, but there is an important strategy hidden within.

  • Achieving both design goals : Achieving both goals through color and/or pattern is possible, and achieving both will earn high marks.
  • Forming a group of the same color : Three or more patch tiles of the same color will earn you a corresponding button token.
  • Rainbow Button : Get one button of each color to get a rainbow button (3 points)
  • Know your cat's preferences : each cat has two preferred patterns and group size or shape

[3 game modes]

Calico has simple rules but deep strategic depth, and three game modes allow you to play to suit your level and preferences.

  • Standard mode : Full-scale play using all design goals, cats, and buttons.
  • Family Mode : Simple rules that don't use design goal tiles and focus on collecting cats and buttons.
  • Solo mode : Challenge yourself with various scenarios and achievements and enjoy the game for a long time even when playing alone

[Comprehensive components]

Includes a comprehensive set of components, including four double-layered quilt boards, 108 patch tiles, 80 cat tokens, 52 button tokens, and 24 design goal tiles.
It features beautiful components and a theme that cat lovers will love.
