Here’s a walkthrough for Freddie’s Takoyaki: https://youtu.be/7rrzOms-srg

My favorite GAPP not-a-series returns! Today’s Strange-Shaped Norinuri uses dominoes consisting of two triangles, called diamonds! (Though, for clarity, I’ll still call them dominoes in the rules; to me, "diamond" sounds like it could also be larger than two cells.) A triangle grid is great, because you can have three dominoes touching at a point! Compare this to a square grid, where at most two can touch, and a hex grid, where dominoes can’t touch diagonally at all

Rules: Shade some dominoes of cells, dividing the grid into regions. Shaded dominoes may not touch orthogonally. Clues cannot be shaded, and every orthogonally connected area of unshaded cells contains exactly one clue, the value of which represents the size of the area.
