Calico is a tile-laying puzzle game where players compete to create the most charming quilt, all while attracting adorable cats! In this game, players collect and place colorful patch tiles, following specific quilt patterns while aiming to create pleasing color and pattern combinations. Your goal is to sew the coziest quilt and draw in the cuddliest cats!

During each turn, select a patch tile from your hand to add to your quilt, then draw a new one from the available pool. If you complete a color group, you can sew a button onto your quilt. Create the right pattern combinations, and cats will join your quilt to curl up. At the end of the game, points are scored based on buttons, cats, and how well you’ve completed your quilt pattern.
