Today's Patches: November 8

Puzzle #47, hard. The 7×7 grid splits into 10 rectangles. 3 clues hide their size, and 2 clues can be any shape. Everyone gets the same board, and a new one arrives at 00:00 UTC.

How to play Patches

  1. Split the whole grid into rectangles. No overlaps, no gaps.
  2. Every rectangle must contain exactly one clue cell.
  3. A clue's number is the rectangle's area (number of cells). A ? means the area is hidden; you work it out.
  4. The clue's badge gives the shape: square, wide (wider than tall), tall (taller than wide), any shape.
  5. Drag from one corner to the opposite corner to draw a rectangle. Tap a rectangle to remove it.
