Rules
Select a single patch tile from your hand and sew it into your quilt, then draw another patch into your hand from the three available. If you are able to create a color group, you may sew a button onto your quilt. If you are able to create a pattern combination that is attractive to any of the cats, it will come over and curl up on your quilt! At the end of the game, you score points for buttons, cats, and how well you were able to complete your unique quilt pattern.
Calico is a complex game ! I highly recommend playing the tutorial before your first game .
FAQ :
- Design goal "=/=" means have none of the same colour or pattern
- Colour tokens are always worth 3 points !
- When taking quilt tokens from The Market the tile furthest to the left is removed also
Controls

- Use the Z key to control the camera

Thank you ! I'm really proud of the music :) so I'm extra glad you like it <3
even though i don't understand the rules quite well, i really like the aesthetic of this game
I really appreciate it @gastropodays44 ! If you want to really learn the rules , it's a real board game- so there's loads of tutorials on youtube <3
This was SO much fun! One of the most polished pico 8 games I’ve played. Great visuals and well thought out controls. I’ve sunk a ton of time into it already. I’ve never played the original, but now I want to get it haha.
This is going on my favorites list, and will be recommended to my friends. Thanks for the great game!!
Beautifully done, has a very chill feel to it, evoking a lazy Sunday sewing a quilt. The palette and design feel very unique...and honestly I like the simplified take you've done here, which of course is required from Pico 8's constraints, but it really draws you into the gameplay. Also agree that the music is amazing!
