FunForge PATCHWORK (FR)

"In Patchwork, two players compete to build the most aesthetically pleasing (and successful) patchwork on a personal 9x9 game board. To start the game, arrange all the pieces of fabric randomly in a circle and place a marker after the smallest piece, clockwise. Each player takes five buttons - the currency/points in the game - and someone is designated as the starting player. On a turn, a player buys one of the three pieces of cloth after the marker, in a clockwise direction. To buy a piece of cloth, you pay the button cost shown on the piece of cloth, move the marker to the location of that piece of cloth in the circle, add the piece of cloth to your game board, and then advance your time token on the time track by a number of spaces equal to the time shown on the piece of cloth. You are free to place the patch anywhere on your board, as long as it does not overlap any other pieces of cloth, but you will most certainly try to leave as few empty spaces as possible. If your time token is behind or above the other player's time token, then you play another round, otherwise it's your opponent's turn. Instead of buying a piece of cloth, you can choose to pass, to do this you move your time token to the space immediately after the opponent's time token, then take a button from the bank for each space you have moved. In addition to the cost in buttons and time, each piece of cloth also has 0-3 buttons, and when you move your time token past a certain threshold on the time track, you earn button income: add up the number of buttons represented on your personal game board, then take that number of buttons from the bank. In addition, the time track represents five small pieces of leather. Whoever first passes over one of these pieces of leather on the time track takes it and immediately places it on his or her game board.Finally, the first player to completely fill a 7x7 area on his or her game board earns a bonus tile worth an additional 7 points at the end of the game. (Of course, this does not happen in every game)When a player takes an action that moves his or her time token to the middle space of the time track, he or she takes a final button revenue from the bank. Once both players are in the centre, the game ends and the scoring takes place. Each player scores one point for each button in their possession, and then loses two points for each empty space on their board. Scores can be negative. The player with the most points wins.
