What is Patches?
Patches is a rectangle-partition puzzle inspired by LinkedIn's Patches game (itself a variant of the classic Shikaku puzzle). Drag across the grid to draw rectangles until every cell is covered. Each rectangle must contain exactly one numbered clue, and its area must match that number. The clue's badge also tells you whether the rectangle must be square, wide, tall, or any orientation.
