Here's your monthly-ish fix of my GAPP's! Which of course stands for Genuinely Approachable Pencil Puzzles, to those new to these (and if you are new, this is just the series for you! Check out the CTC fan discord linked below to get a daily GAPP from myself, Jovi_al, Tyrgannus, Freddie Hand & Eric Fox <3) Somehow I'm still keeping up the no-repeated-genre restriction I've put on myself since day one, and that restriction has led me to creating a few pretty weird puzzles this batch! I hope you'll like them though :B

Puzzle 1 - Takoyaki
Draw non-overlapping, non-intersecting paths through the centers of white cells. Each white cell must be occupied by a path. On each path, place three circles: one on each end and another somewhere in the middle. No two circles on the same path may share a row or column. No two circles may be orthogonally adjacent, even if they’re on different paths. A clue indicates the number of circles which are orthogonally adjacent to it

Puzzle 2 - Nuri-Uzu Shade some cells such that each group of orthogonally connected unshaded cells contains exactly one circle and has 180° rotational symmetry around it. No 2x2 area may be entirely shaded or unshaded Solve on Pzprxs https://tinyurl.com/ydday2nj
Puzzle 3 - Nurimisaki
Shade some cells so that the remaining unshaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded or unshaded. Circles mark every instance of a cell which is unshaded and orthogonally adjacent to exactly one other unshaded cell. If a circle contains a number, it indicates how many cells are in the straight line of unshaded cells coming out of the cell with the circle, including itself

Puzzle 4 - Moc Macek Shade some cells to form a non-intersecting path which does not touch itself orthogonally. Circles mark the ends of the path. Numbered cells cannot be shaded. Additionally, draw one or more straight arrows extending from each number. A number indicates the sum of the lengths of the arrows extending from it. Arrows may not cross each other, clued cells, or the shaded path, and all cells not used by the path must be reached by an arrow

Puzzle 5 - Canal View Shade some cells so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Clues cannot be shaded, and represent the number of shaded cells connected in a straight line horizontally or vertically to the clue. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded
