Meowdoku Level 944 Step 1: Mark X at R1 C9, R5 C9, and R6 C9 + 3 more: a region is locked to this column
The teal region must use column 9. No other region can use that column. Mark the highlighted cells with X.
Meowdoku Level 944 Step 2: Mark X at R7 C1, R7 C4, and R7 C5 + 3 more: a region is locked to this row
The rose region must use row 7. No other region can use that row. Mark the highlighted cells with X.
Meowdoku Level 944 Step 3: Mark X at R8 C6, R8 C7, and R8 C8 + 2 more: rows or columns are reserved
The sky blue and yellow regions must use rows 8 and 9. No other region can use those rows. Mark the highlighted cells with X.
Meowdoku Level 944 Step 4: Mark X at R1 C8, R2 C8, and R3 C8 + 1 more: a region is locked to this column
The pink region must use column 8. No other region can use that column. Mark the highlighted cells with X.
Meowdoku Level 944 Step 5: Mark X at R1 C2, R1 C3, and R3 C2 + 3 more: rows or columns are reserved
