Loom: A Tapestry of Strategy

Loom is an abstract strategy game which beckons two players to engage in a competitive battle of wits. Competition is centered around stringing thread across positions in a growing and ever-changing board, in an attempt to capture key locations. Play is demanding, but approachable, and players will fight to set up and perform game-changing moves. Full intro and rules can be found here: https://spotteddoggaming.com/games/loom/

Video rules and assembly video (assembly is coming soon) can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/@SpottedDogGaming

Plays 2; 30-60 minutes; 10+

Build Requirements:

1x - Loom_v1.0_boxBottom

1x - Loom_v1.0_boxTop (currently uses 2 colors, single color variant in development)

1x - Loom_v1.0_fastener-40x (in light, neutral color, or high contrast color to the player pieces)

3x - Loom_v1.0_delta-x5 (in light, neutral color)

1x - Loom_v1.0_hex_delta-x3 (in light, neutral color)

2x - Loom_v1.0_playerTray (one each in 2 different colors)

2x - Loom_v1.0_spool_and_winder (one each in the same 2 colors)

2x - Loom_v1.0_colorPeg-18x (one set each in the same 2 colors)

Additional Components:

2x - Roughly 30ft. of rope or string. I like to use #0 yarn, as it has a nice sturdiness, but isn't too bulky, but anything that is visible and can take a bit of tension should work fine. These should be in a color that is close to your player components above. 

Notes:

• I am an independent designer, and while my abilities to create a good rulebook are getting better, there are definitely still some rough areas. If, between the written rulebook and the video rulebook, you still have questions, I'd be happy to do a teach through video call. Reach out to [email protected] or ping me on our Discord. 
• If you are a 3D printer, professional or hobbyist, and have interest in adding this to your portfolio to print for others, please reach out and we can have a discussion around that. I am definitely looking for ways to make engaging with this game more accessible.
