How to Solve Meowdoku Level 226
This level can be tricky because there isn't one obvious starting point. A good strategy is to focus on the corners and constrained columns. Here is a step-by-step guide to solving the puzzle.
-
A good first move is in the bottom-left corner. Place the cat in row 8, column 1. This places a cat in the dark green region and blocks the surrounding cells, including (9,2) and (10,2) diagonally.
-
Now, look at the top-left. Place the cat in row 1, column 3. This takes care of the top-left orange region. Because of the no-touch rule, this placement blocks cell (2,2).
-
With cats at (8,1) and (1,3), we have constrained column 2. The cats block rows 1, 7, 8, and 9 from having a cat in column 2. This helps us find the next spot. Place the cat in row 10, column 2.
-
Let's move to the right side of the board. In column 9, a good placement is in the purple region. Place the cat in row 4, column 9.
-
With the cat at (4,9), the options for column 10 are limited. The cat cannot be in row 3 or 5 due to the diagonal-touch rule. Place the cat in row 7, column 10. This satisfies the large pink region on the right.
-
Now most of the board is filling up. By looking at the remaining empty rows and columns, we can deduce the rest of the placements. Place the cat in row 2, column 7.
-
Continue by filling the middle. Place the cat in row 5, column 6. This fits into the light blue region.
-
The remaining placements will now fall into place. Place the cat in row 3, column 4.
-
Next, Place the cat in row 6, column 8.
-
The final cat belongs in the large light green region. Place the cat in row 9, column 5. This completes the puzzle, with one cat in every row and column, and no cats touching.
