Patches Puzzle: Unlimited Mode Guide

What is Patches Puzzle?

Patches Puzzle is a free rectangle logic game inspired by Shikaku. In this game, each number on the grid represents a "patch" that must cover exactly the number of cells indicated by the clue. Players enjoy the same quiet logic satisfaction found in Sudoku-style deduction, but with spatial shapes instead of digits. The core objective is to divide the grid into rectangles where each rectangle corresponds to one clue, and the area of the rectangle matches the number on that clue.
