MeowBlock! Level 30 Walkthrough
Solve MeowBlock! Level 30 by building the right edge first, preserving the middle bands, and rejecting the top 6 previews until the final 2x3 block is stable.
How to Solve MeowBlock! Level 30 — Full Solution
- Anchor r3c8=5 and commit top-left r1c8, bottom-right r5c8, area 5.
- Anchor r7c8=4 and commit top-left r6c8, bottom-right r9c8, area 4.
- Anchor r2c7=3 and commit top-left r1c7, bottom-right r3c7, area 3.
- Anchor r6c5=7 and commit top-left r6c1, bottom-right r6c7, area 7.
- Anchor r5c5=6 and commit top-left r5c2, bottom-right r5c7, area 6.
- Anchor r3c1=5 and commit top-left r1c1, bottom-right r5c1, area 5.
- Anchor r4c5=5 and commit top-left r4c3, bottom-right r4c7, area 5.
- Anchor r3c5=3 and commit top-left r3c4, bottom-right r3c6, area 3.
- Anchor r1c5=6 and commit top-left r1c4, bottom-right r2c6, area 6.
- Anchor r2c2=4 and commit top-left r1c2, bottom-right r4c2, area 4.
- Anchor r2c3=3 and commit top-left r1c3, bottom-right r3c3, area 3.
- Anchor r7c3=3 and commit top-left r7c2, bottom-right r7c4, area 3.
- Anchor r8c1=3 and commit top-left r7c1, bottom-right r9c1, area 3.
- Anchor r8c2=6 and commit top-left r8c2, bottom-right r9c4, area 6.
- Anchor r8c5=3 and commit top-left r7c5, bottom-right r9c5, area 3.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not keep the horizontal top-row preview for r1c5=6; the final bounds are r1c4:r2c6.
- Do not extend r2c2=4 down through r5c2; r5c2 belongs to the separate r5c5=6 rectangle.
- Do not solve r8c6=6 as a single-row strip; use r7c6:r9c7 so the bottom 3 and 6 regions remain possible.
Quick Tips for MeowBlock! Level 30 (spoiler-free)
- Lock r1c8:r5c8 and r6c8:r9c8 before filling the middle.
- Keep r1c4:r2c6 as the final shape for the top 6.
- Reserve the bottom footprints r7c1:r9c1, r8c2:r9c4, r7c5:r9c5, and r7c6:r9c7.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Full 9-row by 8-column board with 72 cells. Clues: r1c5=6, r2c2=4, r2c3=3, r2c7=3, r3c1=5, r3c5=3, r3c8=5, r4c5=5, r5c5=6, r6c5=7, r7c3=3, r7c8=4, r8c1=3, r8c2=6, r8c5=3, r8c6=6. No ? clues.
- Goal
- Partition all 72 cells into sixteen rectangles. The final frame includes r1c8:r5c8 for area 5, r6c8:r9c8 for area 4, r1c4:r2c6 for area 6, r4c3:r4c7 for area 5, r6c1:r6c7 for area 7, and the bottom r7-r9 closures.
- Opening
- The persistent release order is r3c8=5 -> r1c8:r5c8, r7c8=4 -> r6c8:r9c8, r2c7=3 -> r1c7:r3c7, r6c5=7 -> r6c1:r6c7, r5c5=6 -> r5c2:r5c7, r3c1=5 -> r1c1:r5c1, r4c5=5 -> r4c3:r4c7, r3c5=3 -> r3c4:r3c6, r1c5=6 -> r1c4:r2c6, r2c2=4 -> r1c2:r4c2, r2c3=3 -> r1c3:r3c3, r7c3=3 -> r7c2:r7c4, r8c1=3 -> r7c1:r9c1, r8c2=6 -> r8c2:r9c4, r8c5=3 -> r7c5:r9c5, and r8c6=6 -> r7c6:r9c7.
- Danger Zone
- The r1c5=6 clue is previewed as a horizontal strip but the persistent rectangle is r1c4:r2c6. The r2c2=4 preview must finish at r1c2:r4c2, not r2c2:r5c2. At the bottom, r8c6=6 is r7c6:r9c7; a one-row preview strands the r8c2=6 remainder.
- Mechanics
- Every numbered clue is an exact rectangle area on a full 9x8 board. The long source repeatedly redraws provisional bounds; only the 16 rectangles that persist through the final solved board are recorded.
