Spoiler warning: Solution follows

Each of the provided puzzles is a Detour-variant, intended to be solved by forming a complete loop that visits every cell. A number in an area (or its letter, which has undergone a substitution cipher consistent for each puzzle separately) indicates how often the loop proceeds straight in that area (in regular Detour puzzles, the number indicates how often the path turns). In areas without a number, there is no restriction on how often the loop can proceed straight or turn:

Substituting the numerical values for each of the letters in each puzzle yields the values 18, 1, 3, 5, 23, 1, and 25 which alphanumerically spells the answer RACEWAY.
