MeowBlock! Level 6 Walkthrough
MeowBlock! Level 6 is a 6x6 rectangle-partition puzzle. Fix the full-height r1c1-r6c1 area-6 bar and the r6c2-r6c6 area-5 strip, then resolve the top pair, row-2 four, column-3 pair, and the final row-5 four without accepting the tempting 2x2 previews.
How to Solve MeowBlock! Level 6 — Full Solution
- Place r1c1=6 in r1c1-r6c1, a vertical area-6 bar along column 1.
- Place r6c3=5 in r6c2-r6c6, a horizontal area-5 strip across the remaining bottom row.
- Place r1c3=2 in r1c2-r1c3, the two-cell top-left pair beside the 6 bar.
- Place r1c6=3 in r1c4-r1c6, completing the open top-row run with area 3.
- Place r3c2=4 in r2c2-r5c2, the four-cell vertical bar below the top pair.
- Place r2c5=4 in r2c3-r2c6, the four-cell row-2 strip.
- Place r4c3=2 in r3c3-r4c3, the two-cell vertical pair beside the row-2 strip.
- Place r3c4=3 in r3c4-r3c6, the three-cell row-3 strip.
- Place r4c4=3 in r4c4-r4c6, the three-cell row-4 strip.
- Place r5c5=4 in r5c3-r5c6, the final four-cell row-5 strip.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using r5c5-r6c6 for the area-4 clue leaves only four available cells for r6c3=5, so the bottom row cannot be tiled.
- Keeping the area-4 preview r1c4-r2c5 for r2c5 blocks the final top-right arrangement and leaves r2c6 outside the row-2 strip.
- Treating the first colored preview for r3c2=4 as final can leave the column-2 run at the wrong rows; the persistent solution is exactly r2c2-r5c2.
Quick Tips for MeowBlock! Level 6 (spoiler-free)
- Use the full-height 6 bar and bottom 5 strip as boundaries before trusting an area-4 preview.
- Read a rectangle by its exact row and column bounds; a correct area can still consume a neighbor's only corridor.
- Wait for a cat region to persist after release before treating the preview as part of the final partition.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The 6x6 board has clues r1c1=6, r1c3=2, r1c6=3, r2c5=4, r3c2=4, r3c4=3, r4c3=2, r4c4=3, r5c5=4, and r6c3=5.
- Goal
- Partition all 36 cells into ten non-overlapping clue rectangles: the 6 clue owns r1c1-r6c1, the 5 clue owns r6c2-r6c6, and the remaining area resolves into the row- and column-aligned regions listed in the solution order.
- Opening
- Start from the source's right-edge 3 at r1c6-r3c6, then use the fixed edge logic to settle r1c1-r6c1 and r6c2-r6c6 before rebuilding the top row as r1c2-r1c3 and r1c4-r1c6.
- Danger Zone
- Do not use r5c5-r6c6 as the area-4 rectangle or r1c4-r2c5 for the r2c5 clue. The first steals r6c6 from the area-5 bottom strip, and the second prevents the top-right 3 and row-2 corridor from taking their final bounds.
- Mechanics
- The video shows colored rectangles being previewed and redrawn. The final persistent state is authoritative: r2c5 ends as r2c3-r2c6, r3c2 ends as r2c2-r5c2, and r1c3 ends as the top pair r1c2-r1c3.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where should the 6 clue go in MeowBlock! Level 6?
Draw it as the full-height rectangle r1c1-r6c1. That consumes column 1 and leaves the bottom 5 clue a clean five-cell run from r6c2 through r6c6.
Why is the r5c5=4 clue not a 2x2 block in Level 6?
The 2x2 option r5c5-r6c6 uses cells that the r6c3=5 clue needs for its five-cell bottom strip. Use r5c3-r5c6 instead.
