You have discovered the isle of Puzzlandia! Scouts report regions of desert, grassland, hills, and forest. Each type of region appears twice, and all eight regions are each a different size. Similar terrain that is only connected diagonally is not part of the same region. Can you map out the island?

Need a Hint? (Click to Expand)The isle of Puzzlandia is quite small and every region of terrain is a different size. If all regions are as small as possible, how much leftover space do you have?

great presentation, pleasant deductions!! and i love how you worded the hint.

nice little logical puzzle

Loved it very much! Short, beautiful and fun to solve :)

very cute and satisfying! love the theme :)

Very sweet paper puzzle genre.

Very cute!

For anyone trying to get their friends more into thinky puzzles, this would be a great “gateway puzzle” for them 😄

There is a "you win" screen or i did something wrong?

There is indeed a win screen.  You have red and yellow regions that are each 4 tiles big, as well as brown and green regions that are each 5 tiles big.  Every region has to be a different size (as measured by number of tiles).

i misread shape for size and now i feel dumb, thanks

This was great. Feels like something I would have had in a book of puzzles as a kid (and probably erased right through). One request is I would like if you left the map up on the win screen so I can look back at my solution.

Thanks!  Also, if you tap or click after winning, you can see your solution again.  At least, it's supposed to work that way.  :-)

...I had just failed to try that. And I call myself a puzzler.

Anyway, awesome game.

I like how, logically, this came together.
