About Pictangles: Shikaku Puzzle
Looking for a puzzle that calms you down — yet truly makes you think?
Welcome to Pictangles — a pure logic puzzle inspired by the classic Japanese "Shikaku". The rules take ten seconds to learn; the depth lasts for months.
You have one mission: slice the board into rectangles so that everything fits perfectly.
💡 Simple rules, deep logic
• One rectangle — one number. Every rectangle must contain exactly one digit.
• The number is the area. See a 6? That rectangle covers exactly six cells.
• No overlaps. Rectangles tile the whole board — no gaps, no crossings.
And the best part: every level is solvable by pure deduction. You will never have to guess — if you're stuck, the answer is already on the board. Just look closer.
✨ What's inside
🧩 Mechanics that unfold as you play
Hidden "?" numbers with silhouette hints, locks that open as you solve, twin numbers, multipliers, and quirky irregular boards with cutouts. Each mechanic arrives at just the right moment — with a quick intro and no difficulty walls.
📅 Daily Challenge
A brand-new, extra-hard puzzle every day. Fill the monthly calendar to earn a trophy for your collection. Keep your streak alive — it brings gifts.
🖼️ Collect the pictures
Beat levels and assemble cozy artworks piece by piece in your album. Collections, awards and personal records await inside.
🐾 Cozy and tactile
Warm paper-craft colors, soft animations and satisfying feedback on every move. No internet needed: solve on your commute, in a queue, over your morning coffee.
❤️ Why Pictangles will stay on your phone
No tedious grind, no pushy social mechanics — just quality logic. It takes seconds to learn, yet the elegant "spot it — deduce it — slice it" loop keeps spinning in your head long after you put the phone down. Want total zen? An ad-free mode with unlimited lives is one tap away.
