About Mosaicat
Mosaicat is a logic puzzle built on a simple rule. Numbers are scattered across a grid, and each one belongs to a rectangle of exactly that many squares. Your job is to find where every rectangle goes. Each correct placement turns its tiles into part of a hidden image, so the picture, maybe a cactus, a teapot, or a small orange cat, builds up out of your own moves rather than appearing at the end. When you finish, a cat named Tuna shows up. The reveal gives each board a small reward beyond the solve itself, since you only see the full image once your rectangles have assembled it.
It is a calm fit for browser play. There is no clock, no lives, and nothing to lose; incorrect rectangles are simply rejected, and the game waits for you. That makes it ideal for short sessions, one board at a time, or a longer quiet stretch. The layout is flexible, so it works on a phone in either orientation and on desktop. There are 757 puzzles, each machine-checked to have a single solution, and when you reach the end they return as new puzzles on the same pictures. Ten color themes include light and dark options. A hint is available when a board stops yielding, so you are never stuck for long.
It suits players who like pure deduction without time pressure, and it is a gentle way into grid logic for newcomers because the early boards are small. If you enjoy picture-reveal logic puzzles, nonogram-style games, or number placement puzzles, Mosaicat belongs in that group. Because nothing can be lost, it is also a good pick for anyone who finds timed puzzle games stressful and wants something that simply rewards careful thought.

How to play Mosaicat
Divide a numbered grid into rectangles so each number matches its rectangle's size, and a hidden picture appears one piece at a time.
- 1Look at a number on the grid. It tells you how many squares its rectangle must cover.
- 2Draw a rectangle that contains that number and exactly that many squares.
- 3If the rectangle is correct, the tiles it covers reveal part of the hidden picture. If not, the game refuses it and you try another shape.
- 4Keep placing rectangles until the whole grid is divided and the picture is complete.
- 5Move on to the next board. Puzzles start small and grow larger as you go.
Tips and strategy
- Start with numbers that can only fit one way, such as a large number squeezed into a corner or a 1.
- Every puzzle has exactly one solution, so if a spot seems to allow two rectangles, solve elsewhere first and come back.
- Each rectangle holds exactly one number. If a shape would swallow two numbers, it is wrong.
- There is no timer and no lives, so take your time and use wrong attempts to learn.
- If a board will not open up, the hint is there for exactly that moment.
