GAPP stands for Guide Arrow Pencil Puzzles! Wait, err... that's not right, is it? I've been away from doing GAPP for so long that I must have forgot!! Due to IRL complications I've had to take a break from making these, but when I came back onto the team recently I thought it would be fun to kick things off with a mini-series. This set is five variations on one of my new favorite pencil puzzles, Guide Arrow! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do If you'd like to solve these as they release daily, and read our silly little intros too which formed a small story for this set, join the CTC community server linked below! There's even more puzzles made by my co-authors, Jovi, Mender, Freddie and Walker (that's right, the team changed up a bit now!!) CTC community: https://discord.gg/BbN89j5
Rules for all puzzles: Shade some empty cells so that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent and the remaining unshaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. No complete loop of cells may be unshaded (including 2x2s). An arrow indicates the only direction in which one could begin a path to the star without going through a shaded cell or backtracking
