#127 GAPP Collection VIII

Updated: Apr 7, 2022

GAPP stands for Genuinely Approachable Pencil Puzzles! We post these daily in the CTC discord, myself and the team of Jovi_al, Tyrgannus, Freddie Hand and Eric Fox. This collection sees many shading puzzles, which is because I've been a bit sick/stressed out lately and these are the easiest type for me to make in good quality. I hope to go back to exploring other weird and wonderful genres soon :> Like the last collection, there is a variant in here (Nurikabe Either/Or) but the whole post will be tagged Classic as the majority of puzzles are such Puzzle 1 - Light & Shadow

Shade some cells so that each orthogonally connected area of only shaded or only unshaded cells contains exactly one clue. Some clued cells are given as shaded, and unshaded clues may not be shaded. A clue represents the size of the area of shaded or unshaded cells that the clue belongs to Solve on Penpa+ https://tinyurl.com/2p8uu8fv


Puzzle 2 - SUPERSIZED Tawamurenga Shade some cells such that every shaded cell has at least one more shaded cell sharing an edge in the row below it (with exception to the bottom row).

Puzzle 3 - Nurikabe (Either/Or) Shade some cells so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Clues cannot be shaded, and every orthogonally connected area of unshaded cells contains exactly two clues, at least one of which must represent the size of the area. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded



Puzzle 4 - La Paz Shade some cells so that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent and divide the remaining unshaded cells into two-cell regions. Clues cannot be shaded. A clue in a horizontal region indicates the number of shaded cells in the same row as the clue; A clue in a vertical region indicates the number of shaded cells in the same column as the clue Solve on Pzprxs (Puzz.Link Fork) https://tinyurl.com/2tnjbfcn
