The Patches Game puzzle for November 11, 2026 is a 7 × 7 medium board split into 14 patches, from 2 to 8 cells; the largest is 2 × 4.
Its clues: 1 Wide, 1 Tall and 12 Freeform. 11 show a number (Freeform 2, Freeform 4, Freeform 4, Freeform 3, Freeform 8, Freeform 3, Freeform 5, Freeform 4, Freeform 5, Freeform 2 and Freeform 3); the other 3 show only a shape (1 Wide, 1 Tall and 1 Freeform), so you work out those sizes from the grid.
Area budget: the numbered patches cover 43 of the 49 cells, which leaves 6 for the 3 shape-only clues.
Starting hint: the numbered Freeform clue toward the right edge has only one possible rectangle, a 1 × 5 patch, so place it first.
