After the storms of this weekend (I’m in the southeastern United States), some traffic lights around town no longer function! 🌩️ To get where I needed to go today, I had to take some.. scenic routes. 🚙 But, it’s all in the name of safety! And fittingly (I had planned to do this genre before this weekend, so I guess it was an interesting coincidence), today’s genre is a Detour!

Rules: Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centers of all cells. In each clued region, the loop must make the indicated number of turns.

I personally think of “number of turns” as “number of corners.” For some reason, that’s clearer to my brain. See if that helps you!

As always, an example puzzle and its solution are attached to the image of today’s puzzle. Feel free to have a go at the example puzzle here (puzz.link): https://tinyurl.com/2tnf2x79

To earn yourself a Speedy Sloth 🦥 take the scenic route in 1:25 or less!
To net yourself a Quick Crab 🦀 wind your way through in 5:00 or less!
All other times are well-deserving of a Re-routed Ruff 🐦!

Tip: Right-click an edge to place an "x" on it! This might help you keep track of edges that can't be crossed.
