Hi everyone! I don't know how this didn't get sorted for so long, but the GA in GAPP doesn't actually mean "Genuinely Approachable"-- it means "Guide Arrow," and we're going to rectify this by only posting Guide Arrow and its variants for the next year or so.

But what even is Guide Arrow? I asked some friends for help:

"guide arrow is when a piece of ammunition launched by a bow gives you information on touristical things while mid-flight to target" -@dragonoidrules
"guide arrow? i sure hope it does" -@shyeheya

Rules: Shade some empty cells so that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent and the remaining unshaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. No complete loop of cells may be unshaded (including 2x2s). An arrow indicates the only direction in which one could begin a path to the star without going through a shaded cell or backtracking.
