Today's GAPP is a throwback to the early, early days of the channel. We're talking October type far back 😲 . Revisiting a genre that hasn't been covered for more than 220 days, we will once again dividing the alphabet...logically! 😎 This time though, we have a bit of a twist. Some silly setter that it was a good idea to put walls in the puzzle, oh no!

Today's GAPP is a Pentominous (Borders)!

Rules: Separate the grid into sets of five orthogonally connected cells called pentominoes. Pentominoes of the same type cannot share an edge orthogonally, but they can touch diagonally. Letter clues indicate which type of pentominoes the clue resides in. Not all pentominoes are clued and multiple letter clues may belong to the same pentomino.

Variant Rules: (Border) A single pentomino may not cross a border nor have cells on both sides of a border

🚨 Note that you can pick either line OR edge to trigger answer check. You do not need to do both. Example image shows both to consolidate room 👍 . It does not trigger with shading, but you can shade if you feel that helps you.

Feel free to refresh on the 12 pentominoes to make better sense of the letter clues in this post's image, that's what it's there for 👍
