In Calico, players draft tiles to complete a quilt and attract the attention of adorable kitties looking for a perfect place to nap. There are a plethora of ways to score points. Align different colors, create the kitties' preferred patterns, and follow the design tiles for your quilt ... victory will depend on your ability to manage several objectives rather than reaching a singular goal.
 
Players who enjoy games like Ticket to Ride, Carcassonne, Patchwork, Sagrada and Cat Lady will enjoy Calico. The puzzle of purrfecting your quilt presents a thought-provoking challenge that requires a few games to understand.
 
(With a little bit of work, we were even able to play the game remotely, though each location required their own copy of the game).

From the publisher:

In Calico, players compete to sew the coziest quilt as they collect and place patches of different colors and patterns. Each quilt has a particular pattern that must be followed, and players are also trying to create color and pattern combinations that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also able to attract the cuddliest cats!

Turns are simple. 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.

This game is worth picking up. We've been playing this game for multiple times a week for the past 8 months (with a small break in there). I've bought this for other people too. There's three ways to score points and it's a great combination of skill, planning, and chance. Excellent replayability! It's beautiful, cute, and even if you're not into cats and fun colors, it's a healthily addictive game for 1-4 players. Get the game and make time for a lot of fun!

After reading over the rules, it was pretty easy to figure out. Very fun towards the end once everyone got comfortable with the way the game plays.
