MeowBlock! Level 20 Walkthrough
MeowBlock! Level 20 is an 8x8 board with two Mystery clues and a final 14-rectangle partition that must be read from persistent solved bounds.
How to Solve MeowBlock! Level 20 — Full Solution
- Place the r7c7=3 rectangle at r6c7:r8c7, area 3.
- Place the r6c8=3 rectangle at r6c8:r8c8, area 3.
- Place the r5c8=7 rectangle at r5c2:r5c8, area 7.
- Place the r8c4=6 rectangle at r7c2:r8c4, area 6.
- Place the r5c1=8 rectangle at r1c1:r8c1, area 8.
- Place the r8c5=4 rectangle at r7c5:r8c6, area 4.
- Place the r6c3=3 rectangle at r6c2:r6c4, area 3.
- Place the r6c6=? rectangle at r6c5:r6c6, inferred area 2.
- Place the r2c2=6 rectangle at r2c2:r4c3, area 6.
- Place the r1c5=7 rectangle at r1c2:r1c8, area 7.
- Place the r2c4=4 rectangle at r2c4:r3c5, area 4.
- Place the r3c6=2 rectangle at r2c6:r3c6, area 2.
- Place the r2c8=4 rectangle at r2c7:r3c8, area 4.
- Finish with the r4c5=? rectangle at r4c4:r4c8, inferred area 5.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not keep the transient r1c8:r4c8 area-4 preview for r2c8=4; it consumes cells needed by the r1c5=7 bar and the r4c5=? area-5 row.
- Do not keep an upper-middle horizontal area-4 preview at r2c4:r2c7; the committed r2c4=4 rectangle is r2c4:r3c5.
- Do not replace r6c6=? with a larger bottom shape; its remaining rectangle is exactly r6c5:r6c6, area 2.
Quick Tips for MeowBlock! Level 20 (spoiler-free)
- Lock the lower and outer rectangles first, then use the remaining upper cells to constrain the two Mystery clues.
- Use r2c7:r3c8 for the right-side 4 clue; do not keep the transient r1c8:r4c8 area-4 bar.
- Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The board is an 8x8 grid with clues r1c5=7, r2c2=6, r2c4=4, r2c8=4, r3c6=2, r4c5=?, r5c1=8, r5c8=7, r6c3=3, r6c6=?, r6c8=3, r7c7=3, r8c4=6, and r8c5=4. The integer clues total 57; the two hidden clues resolve to areas 5 and 2.
- Goal
- Tile all 64 cells once. The final partition is r1c1:r8c1 for r5c1=8, r1c2:r1c8 for r1c5=7, r2c2:r4c3 for r2c2=6, r2c4:r3c5 for r2c4=4, r2c6:r3c6 for r3c6=2, r2c7:r3c8 for r2c8=4, r4c4:r4c8 for r4c5=? with area 5, r5c2:r5c8 for r5c8=7, r6c2:r6c4 for r6c3=3, r6c5:r6c6 for r6c6=? with area 2, r6c7:r8c7 for r7c7=3, r6c8:r8c8 for r6c8=3, r7c2:r8c4 for r8c4=6, and r7c5:r8c6 for r8c5=4.
- Opening
- Follow the recorded lower-boundary sequence: r6c7:r8c7, r6c8:r8c8, r5c2:r5c8, r7c2:r8c4, r1c1:r8c1, r7c5:r8c6, r6c2:r6c4, and r6c5:r6c6. Resolve the upper chamber afterward.
- Danger Zone
- The r2c8=4 clue briefly previews r1c8:r4c8, area 4, but that consumes cells required by the top bar and the row-4 hidden block. The final right-side rectangle is r2c7:r3c8. An upper-middle horizontal area-4 preview is also replaced by the final r2c4:r3c5 2x2 block.
- Mechanics
- The two `?` clues are reported literally in the opening map and resolved from the persistent solved partition. Transient colored drag previews are not moves unless their exact bounds remain in the final full-cover state.
Frequently Asked Questions
