Here’s a walkthrough for yesterday’s Battleships by Freddie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctnMP2cl4eY

Do you like to cut pizza pies into six slices? Eight slices? Here at the GAPP pizza parlor, our SLICY (hexagonal LITS) puzzle comes with a thin region crust and some tasty strange-shaped slices in the middle! 🍕 😋 Hm… "strange-shaped"… that sounds familiar…

Rules: Shade one tetrahex of cells in each region so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Two tetrahexes of the same shape may not touch orthogonally, counting rotations and reflections as the same. No three shaded cells may meet at a vertex (i.e. any 'triangle' of 3 cells cannot be entirely shaded).

Interface tip: This puzzle displays the five possible tetrahexes below the grid, each labeled with its letter.

It may be helpful to look at the classic (non-variant) appearances of LITS in GAPP: (Eric) Discord message , (Eric) [Supersized] Discord message , (Freddie) Archive: Monday, 16 January 2023

Walkthrough for yesterday's SLICY, as explained by Walker: https://youtu.be/fe8NfNrf57Y

Hi everyone! I know I'm ~14 hours early, but this is the puzzle for the 3rd of July!

Also, if you have children, make sure you tell them you love them.

Today's puzzle is a Yajilin! This was a type I strongly disliked for a long time, until something clicked in my head mid-2021 and I was suddenly able to process loop puzzles. I hope you enjoy it!

Rules: Draw a non-intersecting loop that moves orthogonally through the centers of some cells, and shade the remaining cells such that no two shaded cells are orthogonally adjacent. Clues cannot be shaded nor passed through by the loop, and, if given, indicate the number of shaded cells in the indicated direction between the clue and the edge of the grid.

As always, an example puzzle and its solution are attached with the image of today's puzzle. Solve that here, if you wish (puzz.link): https://tinyurl.com/4s9r7y4s
