Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A vertical figure-8 cream rectangle fills a 4×7 box with `r1c1` at the upper-left. Upper hole occupies `r2c2`–`r3c3`; lower hole occupies `r5c2`–`r6c3`. The waist bridge is `r4c1`–`r4c4` with a short vertical wall stub between `r4c2` and `r4c3` (20 playable cells).
- Goal
- Partition every playable cell into five connected regions whose area is exactly 4.
- Opening
- The verified run fills pink as the top-left L around the upper hole, then peach as the mirror top-right L.
- Danger Zone
- Dragging pink or peach down through the waist steals cells needed for the green and yellow lower L tetrominoes. Splitting the bottom row `r7c1`–`r7c4` into shorter bars also fails the area-4 card.
- Mechanics
- The rule card reads All regions' area must be 4 and shows sample tetrominoes; the verified clear uses four L tetrominoes plus one horizontal I4.
