Tyrgannus

I really like genres with odd shaped regions. I also like puzzles with different shades. I also like puzzles with numbers. Those aren't particularly compatible must of the time though🤔

I like white chocolate. I like dark chocolate. I...reluctantly accept milk chocolate😅 . Think this is all a non sequitor? Of course not! 😋 🍫 . Get ready for a scrumptious variant, now with triple the chocolately goodness!

Today's GAPP is a Triple Choco!

Rules: Divide the grid into regions of orthogonally connected cells, each containing a connected group of white cells, a connected group of light grey cells, and a connected group of dark grey cells. Each region must have the property that the shape of the three groups of colours are exactly the same shape, allowing rotations and reflections. Clued cells must belong to a region containing the indicated number of white cells, light grey cells, and dark grey cells. Thus a 3 clue would have 9 cells in the region, 3 of each colour, and each colour the same shape.

Fairly long winded, but I promise I'm just being thorough! This is just a variant of Double Choco that we've covered before. Here's a link to remind you what that's like

I did both the example and main puzzle in two different colour sets. The grey is more traditional and the brown I think has better contrast. Feel free to pick which one you like, it's still the same puzzle 😉
