How to solve Meowdoku Level 22

Work this 7Γ—7 Level 22 board from scarcity to space. The emerald region offers just 1 legal square β€” so row 1, column 2 is forced β€” while the amber region stays flexible until the very end. Place one cat per row, column, and color region, keep every pair from touching, and each move follows from the last. (App layouts vary; the reasoning doesn't.)

  1. 1

    emerald region β†’ row 1, column 2

    Start with the emerald region: every other square in it already shares a row or column with a cat placed elsewhere, so its cat lands on row 1, column 2.

  2. 2

    green region β†’ row 6, column 4

    The green region resolves next β€” only row 6, column 4 avoids sharing a row or column with an already-placed cat.

  3. 3

    violet region β†’ row 4, column 3

    In the violet region, row 4, column 3 is the last square that doesn't clash with another cat's line, so place the cat there.

  4. 4

    orange region β†’ row 7, column 6

    That forces the orange region: its remaining squares all touch a placed cat or share its row or column, leaving row 7, column 6.

  5. 5

    pink region β†’ row 3, column 5

    Next comes the pink region β€” every square but row 3, column 5 is ruled out by an existing cat's row, column, or corner.

  6. 6

    blue region β†’ row 2, column 7

    The blue region resolves next β€” only row 2, column 7 avoids sharing a row or column with an already-placed cat.

  7. 7

    amber region β†’ row 5, column 1

    In the amber region, row 5, column 1 is the last square that doesn't clash with another cat's line, so place the cat there.

Common Level 22 Mistakes to Avoid

The no-touch pinch point

Cats in rows 2 and 3 land only 2 columns apart (columns 7 and 5), the narrowest gap on the board. Double-check the diagonal between them before you commit β€” a single column off here and the two cats would illegally touch.

Don't commit early in the amber region

The amber region is the roomiest (12 cells), so it tempts you into guessing. Resist it β€” fill the smaller regions first and the amber cat is squeezed into a single legal square on its own.

Don't skip the tightest region

No cat sits in a corner here, so the safest anchor is the emerald region β€” with only 1 open cell (row 1, column 2) it is the most forced square on the board. Players who start in a roomier region tend to stall.

How to Solve Level 22 Faster

Open where it's tightest

Scan for the most crowded region before placing anything β€” here that's emerald. Its cat can only live at row 1, column 2, which makes it the one move on the board you can't get wrong.

Eliminate, then chain

Every placement removes a full row, a full column, a color region, and the eight surrounding squares. Run those eliminations immediately β€” on this board they squeeze the green region to a single square, then the violet one right after.

The amber region closes the board

Don't spend time on the amber region early β€” it's the board's release valve. When the other regions have claimed their rows and columns, row 5, column 1 is the only square it has left, and the level closes itself.
