Before we start, please read the rules carefully! Today's GAPP is a variant!
Okay, I know it's reaching into meme territory. Someone might need to stage an intervention. But I have a confession to make:
I'm addicted to Ring-Ring.
And today's No-Squares variant is... spicing up the genre for me.
I hear your cries of anguish:
"Jovi, hasn't the GAPP team covered this genre twice already?"
Yes, yes we have.
"Jovi, why did you say 'GAPP team' when it's you that's covered the genre twice already?"
Because made ya look.
I just like spinny spin loopy loop, can't fault a gal for that. 😤
Rules: Draw rectangular loops through the centers of empty cells so that every empty cell gets used. The sides of different rectangles may intersect each other, but not turn at their intersection or otherwise overlap.
Variant: None of the rings may be square.
As always, attached to the image of today's puzzle is an example puzzle and its solution. Feel free to try the example puzzle here: https://puzz.link/p?ringring/6/6/030r

Notation tip: I heavily recommend checking the box near the top of the screen that says “color each line.” It’s very easy to get lost when the line colors are all the same!
It's that time again! Can you believe we're been around for over 4 months now? Here is Mind The GAPP Vol. 4, a collection of all our February puzzles as well as bonus puzzles from each of us that are just a little trickier. You know the drill at this point solvers, now collect those animals and solve those grids 😁
