Stitch your way to victory with Patchwork, the acclaimed two-player board game designed by Uwe Rosenberg! In this engaging strategy game, players compete to craft the most beautiful and high-scoring patchwork quilt on their personal 9x9 game board. Perfect for ages 8 and up, Patchwork blends creativity, strategy, and puzzle-solving into a delightful 15-30 minute experience, making it an ideal choice for game nights, casual play, or cozy evenings with a partner, friend, or family member.
In Patchwork, players take turns selecting from a circle of vibrant, Tetris-like fabric patches, each with a unique shape, button cost, and time requirement. Use your buttons—the game’s currency—to purchase patches and strategically place them on your quilt board, aiming to fill spaces efficiently while avoiding gaps. The innovative time track mechanic adds depth, as players must balance speed and precision: move too quickly, and you may leave empty spaces; move too slowly, and your opponent might claim the best patches! Earn buttons by passing reward markers on the time track, and claim special 1x1 patches to fill tricky gaps. The player with the most buttons at the end, after deducting points for empty spaces, wins the game.
Patchwork is easy to learn with straightforward rules, yet offers endless replayability due to its random patch setup and deep strategic choices. The high-quality components, including 33 patches, 50 buttons, 2 quilt boards, a central time board, and a rulebook, ensure a tactile and immersive experience. Available in vibrant editions like the Americana, Halloween, and Valentine’s Day versions, Patchwork brings a charming aesthetic to every game.
Whether you’re a seasoned gamer or new to board games, Patchwork delivers a perfect mix of fun, challenge, and creativity. Craft your masterpiece, outsmart your opponent, and become the ultimate quilt-maker!
