Shikaku — Quick rules

Goal of the game

Divide the entire grid into rectangles. Each clue gives the area of the rectangle that must contain it.

Rules

  • Every cell belongs to exactly one rectangle: no gaps and no overlaps.
  • Rectangle edges follow the grid lines. A square is allowed; an L-shape is not.
  • Each rectangle contains exactly one clue, and its area — width × height — must equal that clue.
  • The clue can appear anywhere inside its rectangle. A clue of 1 must form a one-cell rectangle.
