- Shade the cells under the following rules.
- You cannot shade cells containing numbers.
- A number tells the number of continuous white cells.
- Each area of white cells contains exactly one number in it and they are separated by shaded cells.
- The shaded cells are linked to be a continuous wall.
- Shaded cells cannot be linked to be 5-in-a-row cells.
Pyramid Cult's Favorites is a puzzle series written by me and tested by Ivan Adrian Koswara (chaotic_iak). The aim is to find the favorites of "pyramid cult" to be able to join in it. The series consists of 10 "classic" puzzles with 1 final meta puzzle. Each has a hidden keyword as the solution code and written in English. Rest assured, no anagram is needed so it should not be too hard for non-English speakers (with the meta puzzle as an exception).
Here is the transcribed letters from the grid in the order their triangle appear (from top to bottom row, reading from leftmost to rightmost triangle):

I had a different solution with the same code word. But it was wrong... I checked it several times and only saw it when I wanted to share it... sorry for the confusion. The Rätsel is really nice... I‘m having a lot of trouble finding the code for the next one in this series.
