How to Use the Pips Hint Tool

Our Pips solving tool mirrors the real puzzle board, but with question marks instead of numbers. Choose your level: Easy, Medium, or Hard. Then reveal exactly what you need:

  • Click a question mark to uncover a number and highlight its domino piece.
  • Or, click a piece below to place it directly on the grid.
  • Or, reveal everything fast with just one click.

Reveal just one square, a few tiles, or the entire board; it’s completely up to you.

What Is Pips? The Newest NYT Game (Officially Launched on August 18, 2025)

Pips is the New York Times’ latest original logic puzzle game, officially launched on August 18, 2025, after a successful beta run in Canada. It's a bold addition to the NYT Games collection, introducing a fresh, domino-based challenge that breaks away from the wordplay format of Wordle, Connections, or Crosswords

A Domino-Inspired Logic Puzzle

The goal is to fit all dominoes within the board using a drag-and-drop interface, while meeting the imposed conditions like:

  • Equal ( = ) or not equal ( ≠ )
  • Greater than ( > ) or less than ( < )
  • Exact sum totals

The board also has areas with no restrictions for free placement

Three Playable Levels, No Time Pressure

Pips offers three daily puzzles—Easy, Medium, and Hard—all available to play in any order, on both web and app. Easy puzzles might involve placing four or five dominoes, while the hardest can require up to 16 placements. There’s no timer, no penalties, and you’re free to revisit and fix errors, all aiming to deliver a satisfying, thoughtful solving experience.

Handcrafted Puzzles, Polished Design

Pips puzzles are handcrafted by NYT editors, giving them a thoughtfully designed and polished feel. Their visual clarity and simplicity reflect the game’s design philosophy: easy to begin, satisfying to complete.

Just like Wordle, the Crossword, Connections, and Strands, Pips refreshes daily at midnight local time. That means no matter where you are in the world, a fresh set of three puzzles is waiting for you every morning, ready to become part of your daily solving ritual.
