Cálico Electrónico: El juego de cartas

Players take the roles of a central hero or one of his clones, each with distinct power, charisma and a special ability, and attempt to complete two episodic objectives in a modular cityscape. The city is built from tile cards during setup and as the game proceeds; on a turn a player spends calikillos (action points) to play cards, move between adjacent tiles, place new city tiles, or spend five calikillos to heal from hurt to unhurt. Moving can generate anticalikillos that other players may immediately spend to play cards or spawn monsters against the mover. Combat occurs when a player shares a tile with a monster: the active player picks a characteristic, rolls a die, and adds that characteristic against the monster’s value to determine success; failed fights inflict hurt status. After all players act, the round refreshes hands to five cards, resets calikillos, and clears anticalikillos.
