Overview

• Pips, launched by NYT Games in August 2025, is a domino-style logic puzzle built around color-coded grid conditions such as equals, not-equals, totals, and greater/less than.
• The game publishes daily Easy, Medium, and Difficult puzzles that require placing every domino and satisfying all area constraints to win.
• Mashable published date-specific hints and answers for Sept. 24 and Sept. 25, offering incremental guidance across all three tiers.
• Forbes released a detailed step-by-step walkthrough for the Sept. 26 Difficult puzzle, highlighting anchor placements like the Purple 22 group.
• There is no reported change to Pips’ hint system, which still offers only a full-board reveal rather than incremental clues.
