ABOUT QUILTS AND CATS OF CALICO
Quilts and Cats of Calico is a cozy board game in which the player’s main task is to make a quilt from patterned fabric scraps. By smartly combining the colors and patterns of the scraps, the player can not only score points for the completed design but also sew on buttons and attract adorable cats, who have their own preferences for bedding patterns.

QUILTS AND CATS OF CALICO – MAIN FEATURES
Stepping beyond adaptation
 
In Quilts and Cats of Calico, based on the board game Calico, you will be immersed in a warm, cozy world full of cuddly cats. Here, the quilt bends under the weight of their paws, and loud purring can be heard. It’s a world full of patterns and designs awaiting the master quilt maker.
 
We also have a few surprises for Calico fans, like variations of the rules and mechanics in campaign play. In addition to the well-known gameplay scenarios, new ones await to be discovered.
 
Quilt solo, with friends, or with strangers
 
Whether you want to quilt solo or prefer to compete with other players, Quilts & Cats of Calico will provide you with the corresponding gameplay mode. You will have cross-platform multiplayer at your disposal, during which you can invite friends or play ranked matches against random players. The more peaceful solo mode allows you to face AI of varying difficulty levels and is the perfect tool to hone your skills in a relaxed atmosphere.
 
Sew your adventures in the city of cat worshippers
 
In the game, you can also enjoy the story mode campaign. An extraordinary world inspired by the works of Studio Ghibli awaits you. Here, cats have great power and influence over people’s lives. Take on the role of an itinerant quilter who decides to succeed in a city of cat worshippers. Climb to the top of the city hierarchy and face an opponent who wants to dominate the world of humans and cats. Create quilts, perfect your craft, and help those you meet on your journey. Don’t worry – you won’t be alone. Along the way, you’ll meet friends and, most importantly, cats whose help could prove invaluable…
 
Spend quality time with your cats
 
In Quilts and Cats of Calico, cats are active during your games. Sometimes minding their own business and other times coming to you and your quilt. They will lazily observe the board, romp and run around, and sometimes fall into a blissful nap. They are cats, you never know. You can interact with them during the game, pet them, and shoo them when they get in the way.
 
Extended customization options
 
The game is full of cats, but there could always be more! In Quilts and Cats of Calico, you can create your own, making your game even more wholesome! You can give it a name, choose the color of its fur, and put on different outfits. If you wish, it will appear on the board during gameplay. It will also be possible to choose a different player portrait and background for the game. Pick what you like best!
 
Beautiful, relaxing music
 
We asked Pawel Górniak, the composer responsible for the soundtrack of the digital version of Wingspan, to create the music for Quilts and Cats of Calico. Thanks to him, you will not only be able to deeply feel the atmosphere of the game but let yourself be carried away by blissful relaxation.
 
Quilts and Cats of Calico was developed by the Polish studio Monster Couch and is now available on Steam.
 
More information about the game can be found on the developer’s website, Facebook, X, and YouTube.
