Divide the grid into rectangles. Each number is the area of its rectangle — one number per box, no gaps, no overlaps. Drag to draw, and watch the board fill with calm Japanese colors until the last piece clicks into place. The rules take seconds to learn. Split the whole grid into rectangles (squares count). Every rectangle holds exactly one number, and that number equals how many cells it covers. Cover every cell and you've solved it. FEATURES - Drag to draw a rectangle, tap to remove it, undo anytime - Every puzzle has exactly one solution — pure logic, never guessing - Four levels: Easy, Medium, Hard and Expert. Hard and Expert boards are picked for deeper logic - Daily puzzle: the same board for everyone each day, with a streak and calendar - This Week's Expert: one deep-logic board for everyone, every week - Hints that explain why: "only one shape fits this number", "only this number can reach that cell" - Ranks: climb from Beginner to Master as you solve - Save and resume any puzzle - Share your finished board as an image - Board themes (Indigo, Sakura, Young Leaf, Night, Sumi Ink), dark mode, English and Japanese GREAT FOR - Sudoku-style and logic puzzle fans looking for something new - A quiet brain break on the commute, at lunch or before bed - Anyone tired of energy bars, pop-ups and noisy games - Players who love earning the answer by reasoning, not luck - Building a small daily habit — one board a day PRIVACY - No account needed - Puzzles are generated and your records are stored on your device; your play data is never sent anywhere - The daily puzzle is built from the date, so it works offline - To show our other apps, the app reads public App Store listings (no personal data is used) PRICING Free to play.
