Today’s GAPP is a Dynamites, a genre I saw in Japanese Puzzle Land 2, an LMI contest from just over a decade ago. I like the ruleset, it feels like a slightly more complicated version of Minesweeper. Have fun!

Rules: Place some dynamites (1x2 rectangles) without overlapping. Numbers indicate the number of dynamites in orthogonally or diagonally adjacent cells. Dynamites cannot be placed in a cell with a number.

⚠️ Note: The rules count the number of dynamites, not the number of cells containing dynamites!
