About

Patch Monsters

Read full description

Patch Monsters is a calm, tactile logic puzzle where every numbered creature needs its own perfect patch. Drag rectangles across the grid to cover each monster with exactly the number of squares shown. Start with gentle tutorial puzzles, then work through handcrafted levels with new twists, daily challenges, hints, and satisfying stitched-patch feedback. It is easy to learn, quick to play, and quietly tricky once the monsters start asking for bigger shapes. Features: • Intuitive drag-to-draw rectangle puzzles • A guided tutorial for first-time players • Dozens of campaign levels • Daily challenge mode • Hints and offline progress saving • No account required
