Happy new year everyone! πŸŽ† While we're all in a celebratory mood, today's GAPP marks the 67th puzzle in the series πŸ₯³ and thus I've prepared a special Supersized puzzle this Saturday for the occasion! ...Hey what do you mean 67 isn't an interesting or attractive number? Well neither is 2022 but we still stayed up all night to count down into it (emoji) :thonk:

Here are some cool things to know about the number 67 for you then
β€’ 67 is a prime number, and it is the 19th prime number, which is also prime! Prime-ception (emoji) :mindblowingpuzzle:
β€’ 67 is the atomic number of Holmium, the strongest magnetic element πŸ’ͺ 🧲 Cant say it isn't attractive now, huh?
β€’ 67x67 was the originally planned grid size, but for some reason my co-setters were not very keen about it πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ I hope this size will suffice!

It probably wont come as a surprise at this this point that our puzzle for today has numbers in it, you get to move them around and add them together, all sorts of fun to be had in this classic Yosenabe!

Rules: Move some circles so that every grey region contains at least one circle. Each circle must end up inside a grey region. A circle may move only in one straight line vertically or horizontally. Circles’ paths may not cross each other, other circles, or other circles’ starting points. If a grey region contains a clue, it represents the sum of the numbers in the circles which end up in that region.
Need some time to digest that? You can solve or study the example puzzle in the image and link below! You can also attempt our older GAPP of this genre to be even more prepared (emoji) :WICKED:

Blitzing it and scoring 2:02 or less wins you a Speedy Sloth πŸ¦₯
Quick maths and quick wit to match or beat 6:47 gets you the Quick Crab πŸ¦€
And any correct solution solved in whatever unique amount of time deserves the Seven-Colored Tanager 🐦

It's that time again!

Here it is: Mind The GAPP Vol. 2

We've covered some fun and tasty genres this go round as well as introduced supersized Saturday, had an icy themed week, and even a set of small puzzles on Christmas. It's been fun seeing this channel grow and having the GAPP team grow along with it. Who knows what we'll be up to next year?

As before, there are several bonus puzzles in the document. They may not have sloth/crab times, but feel free to record your times if you want. Just know that bonus puzzles are often a bit trickier πŸ˜‰ Happy New Year pencil puzzle solvers!!
