Patch by patch: solve the Shikaku grid puzzle, a logic puzzle with a twist 🧠
Shikaku Twist Rectangle Puzzle — description
6×6 · 10×10 · 12×12 · 20×20 · 30×30 and 5 clue types
Shikaku Twist is a grid puzzle based on Shikaku, the classic Japanese logic puzzle also known as Rectangles or Divide by Box. If you love Shikaku and want to put your spatial reasoning to the test, this is the rectangle puzzle for you.
Your goal: Divide the grid into rectangles and squares so that each patch contains exactly one numbered clue matching its area. The twist: Each clue also tells you what kind of rectangle to draw: Square, wide, tall, free, or any.
🧩 How to Play Shikaku Twist:
1. Every clue has a number. It tells you how many cells your rectangle must cover.
2. Drag across the grid to draw a patch. To undo a rectangle, tap it.
3. Tile the entire grid, patch by patch, so that every cell belongs to exactly one rectangle. No empty cells, no overlapping.
The Five Clue Types:
Each clue tells you which rectangle it allows:
◾ Square: Equal width and height.
◾ Wide: Width exceeds height.
◾ Tall: Height exceeds width.
◾ Free: Any proportion, but the cell count is fixed.
◾ Any: No restrictions.
These five clues are what make each grid puzzle different.
