How to Play

Each number belongs to a region whose area must match that number. Grow and merge regions until every filled cell belongs to a valid orthogonally connected group.

  1. Every region must be orthogonally connected.
  2. A region's area must equal the number written in its cells.
  3. Regions with the same number may not touch orthogonally.
  4. Given cells are fixed and cannot be changed.
