Hard Shikaku — what to expect

Hard Shikaku uses 10×10 grids with numbers reaching into the teens. Boundary propagation becomes the primary technique: placing one rectangle constrains the space around it, often forcing the next placement. You need to think about chains of dependencies rather than treating each number in isolation.
