• The time tokens are put at the start of the board.
• Special patches are also placed.
• Place the regular patches in a circle.
• The neutral pawn starts after the 1×2 patch.

Game play

• The player whose time token is behind takes the next turn.
  • If they are on the same space, the previous player takes another turn.
• On your turn, you can either receive buttons or place patches.
• If you choose to receive buttons, move to the space one step further from your opponent.
  • You receive 1 button for each space moved.
• If you choose to place patches, choose a patch at most three steps clockwise from the pawn and move the pawn to there.
  • Pay buttons and advance time according to price, and place it on your quilt board.
• If while moving you pass a special patch, take it and place it on your quilt board. They are the only 1×1 patches.
• If you pass a button, you receive income.
  • Take buttons equal to the number of buttons on your quilt board.
