[How to Play]
Some puzzle pieces are drawn on the problem sheet. Following rules 1-3 below, fit the remaining puzzle pieces into the empty squares so that all islands are connected into one. There are two types of sheets: 9 squares and 16 squares. The number of pieces to fit gradually increases, and you level up in 10 stages.
Rule 1: Fit the puzzle pieces so that the islands connect into one horizontally or vertically (diagonally does not connect).
Rule 2: Do not rotate the puzzle pieces.
Rule 3: Use all "pieces to fit."
