MeowBlock! Level 26 Walkthrough
Solve MeowBlock! Level 26 by locking the two bottom 4-cell regions, preserving the central 5-cell lane, and closing the top last.
How to Solve MeowBlock! Level 26 — Full Solution
- Anchor r7c3=4 and commit top-left r7c1, bottom-right r7c4, area 4.
- Anchor r6c5=4 and commit top-left r6c5, bottom-right r7c6, area 4.
- Anchor r5c5=2 and commit top-left r5c5, bottom-right r5c6, area 2.
- Anchor r2c6=6 and commit top-left r2c5, bottom-right r4c6, area 6.
- Anchor r1c5=2 and commit top-left r1c5, bottom-right r1c6, area 2.
- Anchor r3c1=4 and commit top-left r2c1, bottom-right r5c1, area 4.
- Anchor r5c2=2 and commit top-left r5c2, bottom-right r5c3, area 2.
- Anchor r6c2=3 and commit top-left r6c1, bottom-right r6c3, area 3.
- Anchor r5c4=5 and commit top-left r2c4, bottom-right r6c4, area 5.
- Anchor r1c3=4 and commit top-left r1c1, bottom-right r1c4, area 4.
- Anchor r4c3=6 and commit top-left r2c2, bottom-right r4c3, area 6.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not release r5c4=5 as r5c2:r5c6; it contains the separate r5c2=2 and r5c5=2 clues.
- Do not keep a horizontal lower-left preview for r6c2=3; the persistent rectangle is r6c1:r6c3.
- Ignore the opening bottom touch bubble; it is not a numbered clue or a committed move.
Quick Tips for MeowBlock! Level 26 (spoiler-free)
- Secure r7c1:r7c4 and r6c5:r7c6 before working through the central column.
- Reserve r2c4:r6c4 for the r5c4=5 clue.
- Finish with the top r1c1:r1c4 and central r2c2:r4c3 closures.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Full 7-row by 6-column board with 42 cells. Clues: r1c3=4, r1c5=2, r2c6=6, r3c1=4, r4c3=6, r5c2=2, r5c4=5, r5c5=2, r6c2=3, r6c5=4, r7c3=4. No ? clues.
- Goal
- Partition all 42 cells into eleven rectangles. The final frame includes r7c1:r7c4 for area 4, r6c5:r7c6 for area 4, r2c5:r4c6 for area 6, r2c4:r6c4 for area 5, and r2c2:r4c3 for area 6.
- Opening
- The persistent release order is r7c3=4 -> r7c1:r7c4, r6c5=4 -> r6c5:r7c6, r5c5=2 -> r5c5:r5c6, r2c6=6 -> r2c5:r4c6, r1c5=2 -> r1c5:r1c6, r3c1=4 -> r2c1:r5c1, r5c2=2 -> r5c2:r5c3, r6c2=3 -> r6c1:r6c3, r5c4=5 -> r2c4:r6c4, r1c3=4 -> r1c1:r1c4, and r4c3=6 -> r2c2:r4c3.
- Danger Zone
- Do not use the area-correct r5c2:r5c6 preview for r5c4=5 because it contains r5c2=2 and r5c5=2. A horizontal r6c2=3 preview strands the left column; the final lower-left bounds are r6c1:r6c3.
- Mechanics
- Every numbered clue is an exact rectangle area on a full 7x6 board. The opening green touch bubble is not a clue, and only bounds that persist in the solved state count.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the correct rectangle for the r5c4=5 clue?
Use the vertical rectangle r2c4:r6c4, which has five cells and leaves both neighboring 2-cell clues intact.
Where does the r6c2=3 region finish?
It is the 1x3 horizontal rectangle r6c1:r6c3.
How many rectangles solve Level 26?
The persistent solved board contains eleven rectangles covering all 42 cells.
