Rooms Are Commitments
Each colored region must contain one cat. That means every room is both a target and a source of exclusions.

Learn how colored regions shape Meowdoku logic, create locks, and turn simple row-column rules into deeper deduction.

Puzzle essentials
- Rooms define obligations.
- Shapes create locks.
- Colors make logic visible.
Shape Beats Size
A large room can be easy if it is squeezed into one row. A small room can be hard if its few cells interact with many neighbors.
Color Helps Memory
Color lets players remember which cells belong together without reading coordinates.
Room Locks
When a room's legal cells all sit in one row or column, that line becomes locked for the room.
Why Region Shapes Matter
Color-region logic gives Meowdoku its identity. The rooms create the same satisfying placement pressure that players enjoy in region puzzles, Queens puzzles, and Star Battle.
