bakpao

Walkthrough for yesterday's Aqre (Hexagonal) by Menderbug: https://youtu.be/YJuWdQKPhno

Freddie appears to be having connection issues today and has unfortunately run out of backlog, so instead you're getting a baklog puzzle.
Also, we hope you're excited for August! We have something fun planned for you all again - tune in tomorrow to find out what!

Today's puzzle is a Tile City! This is a genre invented by Japanese author AtomicNeoN.

Rules: Shade some cells such that each region is either fully shaded or fully unshaded. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded. Each group of orthogonally connected unshaded regions must contain exactly one region of each size, from a region with only one cell up to the largest region in the group. Regions containing numbers must be unshaded, and numbers represent the size of the largest region in their group.

Acquire a Speedy Sloth 🦥 by solving the puzzle in 2:30 or less!
Obtain a Quick Crab 🦀 by solving the puzzle in 5:00 or less!
And all solvers who complete the puzzle will be rewarded with an August Avocet 🐦
